THE PROPHESY OF GREATEST GRAIL STAR - PART 7

SATURDAY 15 MARCH 2025

Reference: Numbers 24:17 New International Version (NIV)

"I see Him, but not now; I behold Him, but not near. A star will come out of Jacob; a scepter will rise out of Israel. He will crush the foreheads of Moab, the skulls of all the people of Sheth."

The final segmentary part of our referenced Scripture, which is to be expounded by my humble self is:

"The skulls of all the people of Sheth."

This is another awe-inspiring awareness of a "crushing" action attributed to the Lord Jesus Christ - which has been extended from Moab to Sheth, with the perception of their differing attitudes based on the rebellious experiences associated with both. By this I mean that whilst the forehead of Moab has to do with contrary external forces, the skulls of all the people of Sheth has got to do with internal negative influences. Moreover, crushing the skulls of all the people of Sheth is a heightened state of quelling. So the sensitivity level is vicious and virulent, because it conveys the ministration of anguish and death, triggered by divine indignation and wrath.

To crush the skulls of all the people of Sheth is to defeat and destroy them forcefully and mercilessly, because they are proud and violent, but this rendering is metaphorical. Other versified rendering reads:

Cracking the skulls of the people of Sheth.

Breaking down all the sons of Sheth.

Tearing down or destroying all the children of Sheth.

Now watch this: To expound this particular segmentary part from a clear-cut or meticulous approach, I considered the meaning of skull, which is defined as a bone framework enclosing the brain of a vertebrate; the skeleton of a person's or animal's head. Hence this "crushing" is a divine perception that engages the weapons of vivid spiritual understanding, for effective smashing of massively corrupt mindset ingrained in any mental faculty, as well as smashing warped philosophies and tearing down barriers and obstructions fabricated against God's truth, because the people or children of Sheth are emblematic of devilish strongholds, contrary arguments and arrogant obstacles that blind the mind of any humankind from embracing the love of God, and salvation that is in Christ Jesus.

On account of this verity, Pauline epistolary expression reads, "We use God's mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments. We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. We capture their rebellious thoughts and teach them to obey Christ" (2nd Corinthians 10:4-5 NLT).

Although the skulls of all the sons of Sheth come in manifold forms, which also include people's negative defenses, intellectual arrogance, system of earthly ideas and humanly-based theories, plus other high-and-mighty philosophies that oppose the knowledge of God, they can all be broken down and shattered by the helpful intervention of applied eternal truths available in forms of written Word (Logos) and spoken Word (Rhema).

Joyfully and thankfully, I'm so blessed to acknowledge that I know and believe the love that God has for me in Christ Jesus, such that I can rely on it without any reservation, obstruction or blockage from any strongholds of human reasoning. In line with this perception, Johannine literature numbered as 1st John 4:16 reads, "And we have come to know and believe the love that God has for us. God is love; whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in Him" (ESV). Praise God!

By unraveling the mystery and origin of lasting victory, I can boldly admit that I discovered the revealed "Christ in me" as the ultimate reason for my sustained attitude of triumphant mentality, and through my active faith in Christ Jesus, I overcome the world. For with God, we will always gain the victory, and He will trample down our enemies (Psalm 108:13 NIV). Shalom!

Scripture Reading  - John 16:33; 1 Corinthians 15:57; 1 John 5:4-5; 2 Corinthians 2:14.

Exuberant Declaration:

I acknowledge that I wallow in tremendous, lasting and treasurable victories because I serve God faithfully, with active faith in Christ. Blessed be God!
