Today, we continued our study of the first vision of Zechariah, recorded in Zechariah 1:8-10. In this vision, the prophet Zechariah saw a red horse and rider stand among the myrtle trees in the "bottom".
In our studies about the red horse and horseman, we saw that this apocalyptic horse is a part of a group of horses/horsemen, being: the white, the black, and the pale. These horses are mentioned as part of the Seven Seals in Revelation 6 and also in the vision of Zechariah, recorded in Zechariah chapter 6.
To understand the red horse of Zechariah's first vision (also known as the red horse which rides in the Second Seal of Revelation 6:3-4), we need to identify the white horse, which precedes the red, in Revelation 6 (the horse which rides in the First Seal of Revelation 6:1-2).
As we found in our study today, the white horse represents the saved people of Yahweh, who "ride" through the Earth by giving the final Gospel Message. Christ Himself is the Rider, who brings a Crown (Eternal Life) to all who receive the Gospel. This is how this horse/Rider go forth "conquering" and to "conquer" - which means "victoriously".
1) The White Horse – Revelation 6:1-2
·
Meaning
of the color – white indicates that this first horse must be representing “righteousness”
and the work of the saints.
· Isaiah 1:18 – white signifies purity,
cleansed from sin
· Daniel 11:35 – Yahweh is making His
people “white”
· Revelation 1:14 – Yahshua in His
Glorified state is White.
· Revelation 3:4-5 – the saved people
of Yahweh are clothed in white.
· Revelation 3:18 – to be clothed in
white represents the people of Yahweh who are covered in the Righteousness of
Christ.
·
What
does the Horseman carry? A bow – meaning?
· Genesis 49:24 – the tribe of Joseph
(associated with the Second Coming, because Re’eym
is Joseph’s constellation) is associated with the bow. The bow fires the arrow,
being the final Elijah Message. Who carries this message? Yahshua carries it
through His people. The process of firing the arrow – the bow – relates to
giving the Message: The Fourth Angel’s Message (Revelation 18:1-4), Elijah
Message (Malachi 4), the Final Gospel (Matthew 24).
This picture is found in the Mazzaroth… Use the Mazzaroth key:
This
Horseman, goes forth “conquering and to conquer” (Revelation 6:2) – what does
this mean? (Use E-sword) “to subdue (literally or figuratively): -
conquer, overcome, prevail, get the victory.”
1 Corinthians 15:54-57 – the Victory over sin and death is gained through Messiah.
1 Chronicles 29:11 – Yah is victorious and worthy of
all praise. This conquering Rider is “victorious” bringing the Kingdom. –
Remember Daniel’s Stone Kingdom, which defeats the image of Daniel 2? The Stone
Kingdom is the End-time Saints…. That’s
who this is…
1 John 5:4 those who have faith and are “born of Yah” are the overcomers
of the world, who are depicted in the white horse of Revelation 6.
·
What
is the bow being used for in this constellation and in Revelation 6? (Psalm 45:3-5)
– The Rider is Christ. The horse is His people who are fully submitted and
obedient to the Will of the Rider. The arrows are sharp in the heart of the
King’s enemies… “We wrestle not against
flesh and blood”… So the enemies are the kingdom of hell.
·
What does the “crown” represent in
Revelation 6:1-2? (1
Corinthians 9:25; 2 Timothy 4:8; Revelation 14:14; Revelation 2:10; Revelation
3:11) – The Crown represents Kingship (Yahweh is King of kings), and also it
signifies Eternal Life… Receive the Crown = receive Eternal Life.
·
In practical terms, how does this
Horseman Ride through the Earth and how does He “conquer”, using His Bow and
bringing His Crown?
o
Matthew 24:14 – the Gospel of the Kingdom (crown
symbolizes both Kingdom and the receiving of the Gospel) is preached in all the
world.
o
Malachi 4:4-6 – Yahweh’s people are to call the world to “remember the Torah” (Yahweh’s Law is the Foundation of His
Government on and off world) and keep the commandments and statutes. Also
we are being sent as the final Elijah. Our job is to be the “forerunner” who
prepares the people to receive the greater One coming after.
o Revelation 18:1-6 – The Light of Truth is shining and enlightening the whole earth. The Call is given by Yahweh’s people to come out of Babylon, as it is fallen.
