45. King’s Ten Servants Given a Pound
Luke 19:1-27
During week 62 of Yeshua’s Ministry, He spends a night in the home of Zacchaeus in Jericho
Luke 19:1 Yeshua entered and passed through Yericho. 2 And there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich. 3 He sought to see who Yeshua was, but because he was of small stature he could not see because of the pressing multitudes. 4 So he ran ahead of the crowd, and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way. 5 When Yeshua came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said to him, “Zacchaeus, make haste and come down. Today I must abide at your house.” 6 He made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully. 7 When the people saw it, they all murmured that he had gone to be the guest of a man that was a sinner. 8 Zacchaeus stood and said to Yeshua, “Behold, master, half of my goods I will give to the poor; and if I have taken anything from any man by false accusation or misrepresentation, I will restore to him fourfold.” 9 Yeshua then said to him, “This day salvation has come to this house, because he also is a true son of Avraham. 10 For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.”
11 As the people heard these things, he spoke a parable because he was near Yerushalayim, and because they thought that the kingdom of YeHoVah would immediately appear. 12 Yeshua said, “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. 13 He called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said to them, ‘Occupy till I come.’ 14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, ‘We will not have this man to reign over us.’ 15 And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called to him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. 16 Then came the first, saying, ‘Master, your pound has gained ten pounds.’ 17 And he said to him, ‘Well, done, good servant: because you have been faithful in little, you now have authority over ten cities.’ 18 The second came, saying, ‘Master, your pound has gained five pounds.’ 19 And he said likewise to him, ‘You will be over five cities.’ 20 Another came, saying, ‘Master, behold, here is your pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin: 21 for I feared you, because you are an austere man: you take up what you did not lay down, and reap what you did not sow.’ 22 He said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I will judge you by the words out of your own mouth! You knew that I was an austere man, taking up that which I laid not down, and reaping what I did not sow. 23 Why did you not just put my money in the bank so that when I returned I could have gotten it back with interest?’ 24 Then he said to those who stood by, ‘Take the pound from him and give it to him who has ten pounds.’ 25 They remonstrated, ‘Master, he already has ten pounds.’ 26 Yea, I say to you, everyone which has shown responsibility shall be given more, and he that has not been a responsible steward, even that which he has shall be taken from him. 27 Those who deny that I should reign over them are my enemies. Bring them all before me – and slay them.

What is the message of Psalm 118? 1189 Chapters, now lets look at what Psalm 118:9 has to say. I hope you’ll Take the Journey each and everyday! - Remember Proverbs 25:2!
We live in a land where our master is hated. The world looks upon us with wonder and amazement. They know not why that they must give good trades with us. The unseen things go before us. We barter the things needed to occupy this time. We grow stronger and richer with wisdom in our minds. We walk by the spirit through the world of these times, spreading a seed in the hearts the spirit shows us are to shine.
We speak not with cunning words but come to reveal the mysteries concealed. Those with blind eyes roar as lions desiring to devourer us as they will. We lay hands upon them, releasing the darkness, revealing the mystery to their heart, mind and soul. We bind the darkness within men, casting it a side. We bring forth divine revelation for it is the appointed time.
With parable sword drawn, raised to those who can not be touched. We plunge it mightily into the evil hidden in their hearts. Some at long last receive the mysteries locked within, others will become like dust blowing in the desert wind.
We fight a War of Words in a world that does not see, nor do they hear for their hearts are veiled since they were children, when they last hoped to walk along The Way. Let the parable word swing forth to cut the veil before their eyes that we may plunge the double edge sword of truth forth through their hearts as guided by the Ruach from the Mind of Christ sitting on the Mercy Seat of our Mind. Let us be humble with mercy that the desert will bloom a rose, Yea, a blood red rose of Divine Love - let the rain of revelation put out the fire from below.
