It is a multiple of 7/perfection and 10/completeness. Furthermore, the original Year of Jubilee spoken of in Leviticus 25 started on the 7th month and the 10th day. We certainly don't want to miss the impacting fact that we're now in a 70th Jubilee time period. This Jubilee started on the Day of Atonement in Sep last year, with the blowing of the shofar.
In his article, he talked about the meaning of these numbers, 70 represents a time of restoration and Jubilee whereas 111 is about crossing into the Promised Land and living by faith. Jubilee and faith are two key words for us to walk in this year. Joshua 1:11 says, "Go through the camp and tell the people, 'Get your supplies ready...go in and take possession of the land the Lord your God is giving you for your own.'" (Isn't this also in line with our church's theme 'Possessing our possessions?)
In last Nov, I was impressed upon the significance of 70, specifically how the bondage in Babylon was coming to an end after 70 years. And God also brought to my mind about 111. I never knew it was about crossing into our Promised Land and possessing our possession. When I was first impressed upon 111, it was in 2011. The verse was Deuteronomy 1:11 'May the Lord bless you a thousand times more!' That time the sermon by Richard Robert about 'A thousand times more' excited my heart so much that I went on to search the bible about verses with 1:11. I was even prompted to sow a $111 seed that year in order to obtain a harvest that was a thousand times more!
Last night I so happened to read Johnny Enlow's blog. This post was titled 'Seeing 111 and 1111?' What he said was so spot on because earlier in Nov, I was also impressed upon verses relating to 11:11. Generally these verses speak of no more barrenness, no more delay for God intervenes, possessing your inheritance in promised land, breaking through of enemy's fortified cities, complete destruction of fear and giants in promised land, resurrection of dead things etc.
Of course the key verses are about faith in Hebrews 1:11 (Faith is the substance of things hoped for) and Hebrews 11:11 (Sarah received strength to conceive seed) which was my anchor verse all these years. Johnny Enlow also said that expectant believers willing to take kingdom risks will experience unprecedented advances into their promised land during this present 11/11/15 to 1/11/16 time period. We have just started what he believes will be a 7 year “Jubilee" period of extraordinary debt erasures, financial breakthroughs and relational restorations.
He also talked about seeing two paths which believers would take in this year. One path is where believers find themselves thrown into transition quite abruptly. On the other path, he sees a year of acceleration and abundance. (Exactly what the Lord impressed upon me for this year!) For those who already saw the "lines that fall in a pleasant place" will be shown an even greater vein of treasure. We are already in the right field of inheritance and fun, faith, and fruitfulness is your immediate track.
I believe the Lord has prepared us for this path and our transition is over for we have crossed over to the other side! Praise the Lord!
