"I" AND THE "CHILDREN" ARE
AS SIGNS AND AS MIRACLES.

"Look! I and the children whom Jehovah has given me are as signs and as miracles in Israel from Jehovah of armies, who is residing in Mount Zion." (Isaiah 8:18).

"I" AND THE "CHILDREN" GIVEN TO ME.
"I" are each individual faithful anointed son of God of spiritual "Israel". Their male offspring are the "children". Through them Jehovah fulfils His written Word prophesied through Isaiah. They are used in the fulfilment of certain prophecies during the end of this "Esau age" and the beginning of the next age of "Jacob". They receive advanced knowledge and Divine warning through spirit visions, and bear witness to the activities on earth that fulfil these prophecies.

As prophesied events unfold during the remains of this materialistic "Esau age", "the army of the heavens" must then "rot away" and "be rolled up, just like a book scroll". (Isaiah 34:4). This is in fulfilment of Revelation 21:1, which reads: "Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had vanished..." As the events to which the miracle of these visions point are fully realized on earth, scriptural prophecies of God are fulfilled and they "do not fail to have each one her mate". Revelation 21:1 is the scriptural "mate" of Isaiah 34:4: "Search for yourselves in the book of Jehovah and read out loud: not one has been missing of them; they actually do not fail to have each one her mate, for it is the mouth of Jehovah that has given the command, and it is His Spirit that has collected them together." (Isaiah 34:16).

Faithful anointed sons of God have been receiving Divine warning of coming events while residing in a spiritual "wilderness". (Rev 12:14). It is a "wilderness" condition as respects lack of communion with our brothers in the faith, having been ousted from Christ's congregations by unsealed usurpers and sent into an ostracized condition during the 1,290 days prophesied through Daniel. (Dan 12:11). Thereafter, though ostracized, we as earthly members of God's heavenly "woman" have sheltered in the spiritual "place" appointed by Him, away from effectual demonic activity, and with no spirit communion with our faithful anointed brothers. (Rev 12:14).

The "wilderness" condition described in Revelation and Isaiah served as a place of isolation and safety, where our Lord God could expose and remove all "Babylonian" false teachings that had permeated His Christ's congregations. When the spiritual refining work in the spiritual "land" of God has been completed, and His prophecies are fulfilled, this "wilderness" will exult and be joyful with glad crying out: "There will be those who will see the glory of Jehovah, the splendour of our God... At that time the eyes of the blind ones will be opened, and the very ears of the deaf ones will be unstopped… And there will certainly come to be a highway there, even a way; and the Way of Holiness it will be called", but only for those already "walking on the way". (Please read Isaiah 35:1-10).

MIRACLE:    A marvellous event exceeding the known powers of nature, and therefore
                        due to the special intervention of the Deity or of some supernatural agency;
                        as evidence that the agent is either divine or specially favoured by God.

SIGN: An indication of some coming event; specifically an omen or portent.
An act of a miraculous nature serving to show Divine power or authority.
