As Moses brought the people from Egypt to their Canaan, we have also been brought through 20 years of journey in the spiritual wilderness, from the Egypt of sin to the Canaan where we can be free to worship Him. We thank the Holy Father because it took Him 20 years to complete His salvation works in us. Romans 9:24-33 tells us: “Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles? As He hath saith also in Osee, I will call them my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved. And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not My people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.

“Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved: For He will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.

“And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabbath had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrah. What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.

“But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness. Wherefore? Be-cause they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone; As it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense: and whosoever believeth on Him shall not be ashamed.”

As the Father had promised in Romans 1:17 when He said that the “righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, the just shall live by faith,” all that has been hidden from the world has been revealed to us.

The Father was guiding us when He called me for this mission and ministry. I had no knowledge whatsoever of the Kingdom ministry. I had no knowledge of the mystery that was to be uncovered. But through our walking with the Father in the wilderness of the world for 20 years, slowly but surely, the Holy Father revealed everything to us. Because this is exactly what He wants to do. He said that the covenants of God are revealed to them that fear Him. The secrets of God are revealed to them that fear Him. He revealed His plan of salvation to Noah when He said, “I will give man 120 years.” One hundred twenty years are the days of man. After 120 years, it was the Day of the Lord.

Judgment comes upon Sodom and Gomorrah

God revealed His plan to Abraham when He saw the two wicked cities, Sodom and Gomorrah. He manifested Him-self to Abraham as two angels. They visited Abraham and He revealed His plan of destroying these two cities. He sent the two angels to verify if the un-righteousness and sin of those two cities were true. If so, the judgment would fall upon them.

God made a way of escape for Abraham as He made a way of escape for Noah and His family and all of the animals that were to be preserved when the judgment would come. The angels returned with the report that the two cities really deserved the Father’s judgment. So Abraham bargained with God. He asked God if He would spare Sodom and Gomorrah if there were still 50 righteous people living in those cities.

God said, “For the sake of the 50 righteous I will not destroy those two cities.” But Abraham knew that there were no 50 righteous men there so he bargained again for forty. God said, “For the sake of the forty, I will not destroy those two cities.” Abraham kept bargaining, until he came to ten.

“For the sake of the 10 righteous, I will not destroy those two cities,” God said, but He knew there were no 10. So He said, “I will provide a way for those relatives of yours.” He gave instructions to the angels to take them from those two cities before dawn. They were pointed to a physical place, Mt. Zoar.  Do not delay and do not look back. That was the instruction.

So the angels took them and they proceeded to Mt. Zoar, a nearby mountain. However, Mrs. Lot was tempted to look back and she became a pillar of salt. She was destroyed and you could hear the crackling sound of fire and brimstone pouring upon those two cities as they were destroyed. (Genesis 19:24) Now they are buried under the Dead Sea.

That was during the days of man. Sodom and Gomorrah did not know that they had one day left. All of the days before that, were the days of man. The next day would be the Lord’s Day.
