77 Pounds of Flesh

January 14th, I released the warning about the Storm hitting Jan 16th. January 17th was the New Year for Trees (15th of Sh’vat). January 18th, I received the download to begin pressure canning 77 pounds of meat and after doing some research, began the evening of January 20th with what I had in the house. The grocery purchase began the 21st and 22nd.  The meat was to be divided into 40 lbs. of chicken, 25 lbs. of ground beef, and 12 lbs. of beef chunk for a total of 77 lbs.  It was pretty obvious by those numbers that a prophetic act was being birthed! As I was sharing with someone what we were doing, out of my mouth popped “77 Pounds of FLESH” instead of the word meat. Since God loves to talk to me in definitions and idioms, I went hunting for what that meant.

Pound of Flesh

n. pl. pounds of flesh

• A debt harshly insisted upon.
• Something that is one’s legal right but is an unreasonable demand (esp in the phrase to have one’s pound of flesh [from Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice (1596), Act IV, scene i]
• Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice, in which the moneylender Shylock demands he be paid the pound of flesh promised as collateral for a loan.
• Be very careful about taking out loans that you can’t repay right away, or you will have collectors coming after you for a pound of flesh
• If someone demands their pound of flesh, they insist on getting something they have a right to, even though they might not need it and it will cause problems for the people they are getting it from. Banks are quick to demand their pound of flesh from the small businessman who goes even slightly into debt. She appeared on breakfast television to offer support (in exchange for heaven knows what pound of flesh from her husband). 
  
  

That definition reminded me about a personal verbal warning I gave to someone in the summer of 2021 to use their investments to pay off their mortgage while they had a chance without penalty fees instead of entering into another mortgage because it would come back to bite them. A house you own is better than investments that can suddenly disappear overnight while leaving you at the cruel mercy of the banks (or World Economic Forum?) who hold your home (or nation?) as collateral until you can pay off the debt ON THEIR TIMELINE. 

It also reminded me of a “call sign” I saw that interest rates would return back to the 1970’s rates. A gentleman in his 80’s let me know that happened to be around 17% – low 20’s. Remember Prime Minister Trudeau’s declaration of the Great Reset: “You will own nothing and you’ll love it!” What better way for the cabal to lure people into a trap to seize people’s assets legally than to dangle super low interest rates in front of those who disagree with God’s word and pretend mortgage debt is not a curse and slavery, then once enough people bite, suddenly jack the rates up forcing the evitable foreclosures of the masses.

A third reminder that came up in conversation was how John the Baptist was a financial reformer of his day, where his sermon in Luke 3 had 3 financial instructions that the majority of the church culture do not follow today, just like the Brood of Vipers Pharisees of his day. Before a religious spirit pitches a fit saying that is accusation, take a hard look at the average congregation and prove everyone is debt free. Most church buildings are mortgaged, proving they are cursed as per Deuteronomy 28! If the Kingdom of Heaven was taught AND acted upon, we wouldn’t have poverty in the church but rather manifest Acts 4, where no one lacked. Luke 3 also includes the reference Timothy Dixon prophesied about regarding the axe lying at the root of the tree, ready to cut down every tree that does not bear good fruit. That passage was directed to the religious leaders, not the worldly.

On a related bunny trail, January 25th I released a prophetic instruction to pay off a certain man’s house as a corporate act of worship, a sacrificial offering for the fire to fall. That has been unpacked on a YouTube Live – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2IFcASfZbA 

Another angle of exacting their pound of flesh is that when the Pied Piper failed to get paid for his services, he led their children to the river [to be baptized] and the unclean rats returned to haunt the leaders. Elon Musk has been on my mind lately although I don’t know who he is beyond a rich businessman, what he represents, or how he connects to the Pied Piper theme.  It stood out that my little Crowned Royal Warrior has been playing with a book titled “St. Lawrence Seaway” that runs past Montreal as I have been writing this blog. The trucker convoy is in nearby Ottawa, which also has a river near it.

Pressure Canning:

I began walking through the first time ever pressure canning after having been given one in November 2021, entering into uncharted territory where I had no one to instruct me what to do other than YouTube. We were racing against the clock to complete the processing of all this FRESH MEAT, running on 4 – 6 hrs. of sleep every 24 hrs. with one canner load after another averaging 4 – 5 loads a day.

Fresh Meat: 1. A person or group of people, especially newcomers, who are seen by others as a new target for scorn, humiliation, ridicule, or sexual advances

This phrase definition stood out as relevant for the congruent Truckers Freedom Movement Convoy that has gained a surprisingly fast and strong following that to date has remained calm and orderly from Telegram reports while becoming the “new target” for the mainstream media to focus on, while their attention is drawn away from what exactly??? They will need to be “preserved” rapidly to avoid the movement from turning rancid.  Side note – this Freedom Movement was prophesied by Hank Kunneman back in 2017.

Say “Yes, LORD!” and Begin

We said, “Yes LORD”, and began the processing with what we DID had, without all the resources on hand. As we went, the resources began pouring in one direction or another. We started running out of jars by the 3rd day. A trip to Value Village hit the jackpot of a van trunk load of jars for the mere price of 3 new boxes and a 2nd trip with another partially filled trunk.  My last quick count, including the multiplication of 2 raspberries into 3 van loads of apples that resulted in an intense week of prophetic act of apple canning, I now have over 250 jars very creatively organized by my husband…at least the ones I could find to count. ?

Pressure canning is used for LOW-ACID foods, unlike water bath submersion canning that is used for HIGH-ACID food (like beets pickled in vinegar & acidic apples). The pressure canner in my case used 10 lbs of pressure to get up to 240 F. Getting the load up to pressure, processed at peak pressure for 90 mins for quart jars, then pressure slowly released until I could safely remove the canner lid averaged 3.5 – 4 hrs per cycle.

It was a few days into the processing before the LORD started revealing what this was all about. “The pressure is building for those that have the meat of the Word and not merely being bottle-fed milk, but it is to PRESERVE them, not to destroy them.” I don’t believe it’s a coincidence that the Trucker’s Freedom Movement Convoy in Canada began the weekend after I learned I was to walk out this prophetic act. It required much faith to hunt for the meat as all the grocery stores & Costco were emptying out, BELIEVING God would provide the meat without compromising on Halal meat that has been sacrificed to idols and forbidden by God’s commandments in both Old and New testaments.

40 lbs of Chicken:

The 40 lbs. of chicken represented the first phase of CHASTENING THE COWARDLY CHICKENS that would extend from now until Passover the evening of April 15th. The Fast of the Firstborn (Ta’anit Bechorot) was highlighted which lands the day before Passover. It reminded me of a word I released back in 2017 and again 2018 that the Ahab’s and Pharaoh’s would have 10 opportunities to repent and then the judgment of death would hit. I find it interesting that Kent Christmas has released a word that bodies would be stacked in the streets (can be viewed on YouTube channel Voice of Revival – spoken Dec 5, 2021), which reminded me of my word April 19, 2020 “Batten Down the Hatches, A Storm’s A ’Comin” that pointed out the land would vomit the rebellious out as per Lev 18:24-30. A prophetic friend sent me Curt Landry’s video from January 25 that also sounded the clarion call to the women to “batten down the hatches” because the men weren’t listening and the storm was at our doorstep. Bill Lackie also released a word via Elijah List, “God said, ‘Batten Down the Hatches.”

25 lbs Ground Beef

The second phase was the 25 lbs. of Ground Beef. For those who had humbly surrendered to the grinding process, the heat would force the gelling and rendering of their oil until it poured freely.  The time of deep forgiveness of sins would shift into ministry training during the counting of the Omer that ends at Pentecost / Shavuot (evening of June 4th, 2022).

That had me hunting up the definition of “Ground/Grind”:

grind
v. ground (ground), grind·ing, grinds
1.
a. To reduce to small bits or crush to a fine powder: grind wheat into flour; grind coffee beans.
b. To shape, sharpen, or refine with friction: grind scissors to a fine edge; grind lenses for eyeglasses.
2. To rub (two surfaces) together harshly; gnash: grind one’s teeth.
3. To bear down on harshly; crush: The team’s spirit was ground down by harsh losses.
4. To oppress or weaken gradually or persistently: “Laws grind the poor, and rich men rule the law” (Oliver Goldsmith).
5. To operate by turning a crank: ground a hurdy-gurdy.
6. To instill or teach by persistent repetition: ground the truth into their heads.

When our wills are finely ground, it is no longer I that live but Christ within me.  Not my will be done, but the Heavenly Father’s will be done, even when it feels like our flesh has been pulverized to ground meat. When we have done all that we are able to stand, we continue to stand. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego resolutely stood firm against the idolatry of Nebuchadnezzar and refused to bow. However, there came a time when they were bound and could no longer stand on their own two feet as they were thrown into the fire. It was then that the LORD showed up and they not only continued to stand but WALKED FREELY in the fire with Him. The end result was that proud King Nebby (and therefore his entire kingdom) acknowledged that there was a God.  Those that had previously been tossed into the fire ended up promoted instead.

Grounded: Someone who is grounded makes good decisions and does not say or do stupid things:

12 lbs Solid Beef

The 3rd phase was the 12 lbs. of solid beef, that happened to be a massive sirloin tip roast that needed to be hand-cut by the Youthful into stewing chunks and the tough fascia circumcised from the tender meat.  This represented the governmental anointing that would land upon the laborers with circumcised hearts that are being sent into the harvest fields as the new replacement leaders. They will be known by their ability to handle strong meat and be skillful in the word of righteousness, demonstrating they are not dull of hearing & unskillful like those who are still stuck on milk. We shall see a new birthing at Thanksgiving / Feast of Tabernacles (Oct 10th, 2022) with the grace to endure bitter times ahead with God’s favor manifesting.

The meat of the matter – The most important, basic, or fundamental essence or element(s) of an issue, problem, or matter at hand.

The Unsealed Chili Con Carne

Of all the 200+ jars I processed, 6 of them failed to seal – all Chili Con Carne. Men of the flesh whose love has grown cold and have tried to con others that they have meat when they don’t will not receive the seal of preservation of Ezekiel 9. Only those who mourn and sigh over the abominations done within Jerusalem will receive the sealing mark of the LORD upon the foreheads. Greasy grace will rob you of your seal.
