A PLACE OF SAFETY

                              Contributed by Jay Scher

There are scriptures that talk about a place of Safety for some, NOT A RAPTURE, this may not be an easy place. Here in VS 6 the Women are those that keep the Sabbath, the Set-Apart days of יהוה and carry the Testimony of Yahshua/Yahushua. She is The End time Assembly. Some of the body of Yahshua/Yahushua, not all.
Rev 12:6 And the woman “fled” into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of Elohim, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and sixty days.
Here we see the word “fled“. This is also the same as the word “flee“. We will see the word “flee” several more times in coming scriptures. Now we see the time is to be 1260 days. Daniel talk about 1260 days. This time is 3 and ½ years. Also referred to as a time, a time and a half a time in the next scripture. This is also the length of the tribulation. It is also referred to as the length of time that the Antichrist will rule from Jerusalem.
Rev 12:14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might “fly” into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
Now the wings of an eagle are not to be taken literal. It just means they will be taken out on the edge of an army or withdrawn and protected. You do want to make a mental not of the word “Fly“. In later verses we see several scriptures that talk about a “flight“. So you get the same general meaning with the two words. A flight or to fly.
Rev 12:15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.
Rev 12:16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
Here it is talking about people on the earth helping these people and יהוה swallowing up the water. Water can also mean people. It is not always literally water as in a flood.
Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of Elohim, and have the testimony of Yahshua/Yahushua.
In the beginning of this study I pointed out that the people that would go to the place of safety were those who kept the commandments and had the testimony of Yahshua/Yahushua. Here we see this repeated in scripture, so you can see it’s not just something I am making up.
So the rest of the people that are not in the place of safety that Yah has prepared for, are going to be going through a ruff time, as Satan is going to make war with them. They will be tried and tested further.
Rev 13:6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against Elohim, to blaspheme His Name, and His Tent, and those dwelling in the heaven.
Rev 13:7 And it was given to him to fight with the set-apart ones and to overcome them. And authority was given to him over every tribe and tongue and nation.
Zep 2:1 Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation not desired;
Zep 2:2 Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of יהוה come upon you, before the day of יהוה's anger come upon you.
Zep 2:3 Seek ye יהוה, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of יהוה's anger.
So we see that we are to gather together the nation not desired. We are the spiritual nation that no one desires. That is why everyone is always against us and wanting to argue our beliefs with us, even though they are only from scripture. The word Zephania means יהוה hides.
Joe 2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into
blood, before the great and the terrible day of יהוה come.
So we can see here what day and time frame this prophecy is talking about, the end times.
Joe 2:32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of יהוה shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as יהוה hath said, and in the remnant whom יהוה shall call.
So we see here that it is from Jerusalem and Mount Zion shall be deliverance. Then we see we are to flee from there. It does not say how we get there, but that is where faith comes in. Do not worry about this, how you will get there. יהוה will provide a way.
Mat 24:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
Mat 24:4 And יהושע answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
I put this in for content. I have some people that have said this already happened in 70 AD. Well the end of the world did not happen in 70 AD. We are all still here.
Mat 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, whoso readeth, let him understand:
Mat 24:16 “then let those who are in Yehud_ah “flee” to the mountains.
So those in Judea are to “flee” to the mountains. The abomination of desolation is when the Sacrifices are stopped after 45 days. Then something Pagan is put on the Alter of sacrifice. So they will more than likely be lead by the Ruach to the place of Safety.
Mat 24:17 “Let him who is on the house-top not come down to take whatever out of his house.
Mat 24:18 “And let him who is in the field not turn back to get his garments.
Right after this, Israel will be over ran with armies. 2/3 will die by the sword. So you can see the urgency Yah puts in these words here to flee in haste. He does not want them to look back.
Mat 24:19 “And woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing children in those days!
Mat 24:20 “And pray that your “flight” does not take place in winter or on the Sabbath.
Mat 24:21 “For then there shall be great distress,1 such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Here we see the word “flight“. It is very close to the word “Flee“. So we see the same types of word repeated to get the point across. Where are they going? Where is this Flight going? Can we buy a ticket to get on this flight? How many seats are on it? That is where our faith comes into place. We must have the faith that he is going to guide us during this time. We are told that it is going to happen and when, just not where it is. This is to test us all, for those that are worthy to go to this place of safety. I pray I am worthy. It should be something we all pray about. We should pray this at least a few times a month.
Luk 21:36 “Watch then at all times, and pray that you be counted worthy to escape all this about to take place, and to stand before the Son of Aḏam.”
Mar 13:14 But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, let him that readeth understand, then let them that be in Judaea “flee” to the mountains:
Here we see it again in Mark. We are told to read and understand. The clues are here for us brothers and sisters. Are we going to listen to the clues?
Mar 13:15 “And he who is on the house-top, let him not go down into the house, nor come in to take whatever out of his house.
Mar 13:16 “And he who is in the field, let him not go back to get his cloak.
Mar 13:17 “And woe to those who are pregnant and to those nursing children in those days!
Mar 13:18 “And pray that your “flight” does not take place in winter.
We don’t want our Flight to be in winter.
Mar 13:19 “For in those days there shall be distress, such as has not been from the beginning of creation which Elohim created until this time, nor ever shall be.
We see this is not going to be a nice time on earth, never such a time since the begging of craeation.
Mar 13:20 “And if the Master had not shortened those days, no flesh would have been
saved; but because of the chosen ones, whom He chose, He shortened the days.
Luk 21:17 “And you shall be hated by all because of My Name.
Luk 21:18 “But not a hair of your head shall be lost at all.
Luk 21:19 “Possess your lives by your endurance!
Luk 21:20 “And when you see Yerushalayim surrounded by armies, then know that its laying waste is near.
So we know this happens when Jerusalem is surrounded by armies. So we have several signs to look for here to know the time is close. We have the sacrifices being stopped, we have the Abomination of Desolation. So 3 signs.
Luk 21:21 “Then let those in Yehud_ah “flee” to the mountains, and let those who are in the midst of her go out, and let not those who are in the fields enter her.
Luk 21:22 “Because these are days of vengeance, to fill all that have been written.
Luk 21:23 “And woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing children in those days! For there shall be great distress in the earth and wrath upon this people.
Luk 21:24 “And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations. And Yerushalayim shall be trampled underfoot by the gentiles until the times of the gentiles are filled.
Now before I asked the Question how many will be on that flight? We see here that the number is 144 thousand. 12 thousand from each tribe will be sealed. Now there is also a hidden message here. Please refer to the teaching Doc called Rev hidden Message.
Rev 7:3 saying, “Do not harm the earth, nor the sea, nor the trees until we have sealed the servants of our Elohim upon their foreheads.”1 Footnote: 1See 9:4, 14:1, 22:4.
Rev 7:4 And I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundre...d and forty-four thousand, sealed out of all the tribes of the children of Yisra’el:
Rev 7:5 of the tribe of Yehud_ah twelve thousand were sealed, of the tribe of Re’ub_en twelve thousand were sealed, of the tribe of Gad_ twelve thousand were sealed,
Rev 7:6 of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand were sealed, of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand were sealed, of the tribe of Menashsheh twelve thousand were sealed,

Rev 7:16 “They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more, neither shall the sun strike them, nor any heat,
Rev 7:17 because the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne shall shepherd them and lead them to fountains of waters of life. And Elohim shall wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
Rev 3:10 “Because you have guarded My Word of endurance, I also shall guard you from the hour of trial which shall come upon all the world, to try those who dwell on the earth.
Rev 3:11 “See, I am coming speedily! Hold what you have that no one take your crown.
Rev 3:12 “He who overcomes, I shall make him a supporting post in the Dwelling Place of My Elohim, and he shall by no means go out. And I shall write on him the Name of My Elohim and the name of the city of My Elohim, the renewed Yerushalayim, which comes down out of the heaven from My Elohim, and My renewed Name.
Rev 3:13 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.” ’
Psa 91:1 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High, Who abides under the shadow of the Almighty,
Psa 91:2 He is saying of יהוה, “My refuge and my stronghold, My Elohim, in whom I trust!”
Psa 91:3 For He delivers you from the snare of a trapper, From the destructive pestilence.
Psa 91:4 He covers you with His feathers, And under His wings you take refuge; His truth is a shield and armour.
Psa 91:5 You are not afraid of the dread by night, Of the arrow that flies by day,
Psa 91:6 Of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Of destruction that ravages at midday.
Psa 91:7 A thousand fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it does not come near you.
Psa 91:8 Only with your eyes you look on, And see the reward of the wrong ones.
Psa 91:9 Because you have made יהוה – My refuge, the Most High – your dwelling place,
Psa 91:10 No evil befalls you, And a plague does not come near your tent;
Psa 91:11 For He commands His messengers concerning you, To guard you in all your ways.
Psa 91:12 They bear you up in their hands, Lest you dash your foot against a stone.
Psa 91:13 You tread upon lion and cobra, Young lion and serpent you trample under foot.
Psa 91:14 “Because he cleaves to Me in love, Therefore I deliver him; I set him on high, Because he has known My Name.
Psa 91:15 “When he calls on Me, I answer him; I am with him in distress; I deliver him and esteem him.
Psa 91:16 “With long life I satisfy him, And show him My deliverance.”
Zep 2:1 Gather together, gather together, O nation without shame,
Zep 2:2 before the decree is born – the day shall pass on like chaff – before the burning wrath of יהוה comes upon you, before the day of wrath of יהוה comes upon you!
Zep 2:3 Seek יהוה, all you meek ones of the earth, who have done His right-ruling. Seek righteousness, seek meekness, if so be that you are hidden in the day of wrath of יהוה.
This is the day we all look forward to!!! HALLELUYAH!!!!
I hope this was a blessing to you! Please feel free to ask any questions.
I am happy to serve you all anyway I can.
With brotherly love in the body of Messiah in the Way, Brother Jay
