In today’s insightful live broadcast, Joseph Z exposes how a deep revelation of God's love empowers us to outlive and outlast challenges.Â
Joseph introduces us to the many facets of God's love, showing that He forewarns, prepares, and rescues us in times of distress. He explains that John, Enoch, and Daniel were all closely connected to the Lord and displayed similar traits in their relationships with Him. He also highlights notable characteristics of Enoch's life, prophecies, and extrabiblical writings. He then cites Genesis 5: 24 and 1 Thessalonians 4: 17 to demonstrate the existence of the rapture, while teaching that Enoch was taken up before the flood in Noah's time. Interestingly, he illustrates how Enoch left a prophetic sign of the impending destruction in his son's name, Methuselah, meaning “upon his death, judgment will come. "Â

We will learn that Methuselah outlived everyone, much like John did. However, he was the oldest person ever recorded in scripture, and after Methuselah's death, judgment arrived in the form of a flood. Once again, Joseph explains that God has concealed a prophetic message behind certain names in the Bible, starting with Adam(meaning man), Seth(meaning appointed), Enosh(meaning to be incurable or frail), Kenan(meaning sorrow, dirge, or an allergy), Mahalalel(meaning blessed of God), Jared(meaning shall come down), Enoch(meaning commencement or teacher), Methuselah (meaning his death shall bring), Shalack(meaning to bring or to send forth), Lamech(meaning despairing), and Noah(meaning comfort or rest). When these names are combined, they read in Hebrew: “Man, appointed mortal sorrow, but the blessed God shall come down teaching that His death shall bring the despairing, rest. "Â
Joseph clarifies that all these names together convey God's prophecy of the gospel before it was preached. Furthermore, he makes us aware that no Biblical teaching ends in doom unless it pertains to one who completely rejects Jesus. He explains that when we combine God's word with faith and keep His goodness in mind, we begin to unlock His favor in our lives. This was also true for Daniel, whose life can be compared to that of John. Joseph points out the deep intimacy shared among those who had a close walk with the Lord; an excellent spirit. He concludes by teaching that revelation, power, and knowledge of God are the keys to our freedom from the devil's attacks.Â
