The Eight Harbinger: The Utterance

The Eighth Harbinger was the public speaking of the ancient vow of defiance.  For this harbinger to manifest, the vow would have to be spoken in the nation’s capital by a national leader, as it had been in ancient Israel.  On Sept 11, 2004, every object mentioned in the prophecy of Isa 9:10 had manifested.  The public utterance of the prophecy had to take place publicly, which happened on Sept 11, 2004 when VP candidate John Edwards, giving a speech in the capital city, quoted this exact scripture word for word in Wash., DC.  Without realizing it, he was joining the two nations together and, without realizing it, pronouncing judgment on America.  The ancient and the modern were bound together.

Israel

1. Israel's leaders mislead the nation (Isaiah 9:16) and the people utter confidence in national resurgence by their own hands without God (Isaiah 9:10, 13).
2. Israel's actions is embedded it's arrogance and pride of heart (Isaiah 9:9).
3. God warned Israel: "The Lord has sent word against Jacob, it falls upon Israel.  And all the people know it..." (Isaiah 9:8, 9).
   
4. "The people do not turn to Him who struck them, or seek the Lord of Hosts" (Isaiah 9:13).   Ignoring God's message ensures His coming judgment.
5. As a result of continued disregard for God's prophet and warnings, "...the Lord raises up their foes against them and stirs up their enemies into action" (Isaiah 9:11).  Although God is patient loving, and merciful, there comes a point when Although His love endures forever He is patient with His people but their actions warrant discipline. 
   

America

1. Democratic Senator and Vice Presidential candidate John Edwards quotes Isaiah 9:10 ("The bricks have fallen...) on September 11, 2004 at a congressional caucus in Washington, D.C.
   
2. The utterance would connect the Assyrian invasion of Israel to today's 9/11 tragedy.  It would join America's post-9/11 defiance to Israel's defiance.
   
3. God has warned America by removing His hedge of protection.
   
4. America does not turn to God, but instead, continues on it's course of self-confidence apart from God.
   
5. Deceived by it's confidence in self, the country follows a path that leads to significant military, economic, social, and natural disorder.  No one makes the connection between the chaos and the nation's turn away from God.
