​HOW WAS HIS HERITAGE ESTABLISHED IN YOU? DO YOU HAVE A LADDER?
GEN 28:10
AND JACOB WENT OUT FROM BEERSHEBA, AND WENT TOWARD HARAN.
AND HE LIGHTED UPON A CERTAIN PLACE, AND TARRIED THERE ALL NIGHT, BECAUSE THE SUN WAS SET; AND HE TOOK OF THE STONES OF THAT PLACE, AND PUT THEM FOR PILLOWS, AND LAY DOWN IN THAT PLACE TO SLEEP.
THERE WAS AN APPOINTED TIME THAT WAS AT HAND FOR JACOB AND HIS FAMILY TO GO FORTH, BUILD, AND ESTABLISH THEMSELVES AS THEIR HERITAGE UNTO THE LORD THEIR GOD AS PROMISED. JACOB, WHOSE NATURAL NAME MEANT TRICKSTER, LEFT HOME AND WENT FORTH AFTER BEING BLESSED OF HIS FATHER. THOUGH HE HAD A GODLY HERITAGE AND PROMISE OF GOD GIVEN TO HIM BY WAY OF HIS NATURAL FATHER, HIS BLESSING WAS RECEIVED BY WAY OF COVETOUS PRACTICES AND DECEIT. HE TRAVELED TO HARAN TO THE VERY SAME PLACE ABRAHAM STOPPED BEFORE BEING APPROACHED BY GOD WHO INSTRUCTED HIM TO GET THEE FROM THY FATHER’S HOUSE TO  APLACE I WILL SHOW THEE (GEN 12:1). JACOB WAS INSTRUCTED TO GO TO THE HOUSE OF BETHUEL (HOUSE OF COVETOUS PRACTICES) AND TAKE A WIFE (SYRIA IS OF THE GENTILES). ON HIS WAY TO GET HIS WIFE OF PROMISE HE STOPS AND WAITS FOR THE NIGHT. THERE IS ALMOST ALWAYS A PERIOD OF TRIAL AND WAITING BEFORE YOU OBTAIN YOUR PROMISE. THE LORD SAID WATCH AND PRAY. WHILE JACOB WAS IN THE MIDST OF SLEEP THE LORD REVEALED HIMSELF UNTO JACOB. THE LORD SHOWED HIM A LADDER SYMBOLIC OF A HEAVENLY CONNECTION. THIS LADDER REVEALED ANGELS OF THE LORD GOING BACK AND FORTH FROM HEAVEN TO EARTH. WE NEED A CONNECTION TO GET FROM EARTH TO GLORY AND THAT CONNECTION IS THE LORD JESUS CHRIST BY HIS HOLY SPIRIT. HIS FATHER HAS SPOKEN OF HIS NATURAL INHERITANCE BEFORE HIS JOURNEY, BUT HIS SPIRITUAL FATHER HAD OTHER PLANS. THE LORD INTRODUCES HIMSELF AND SHARES WITH HIM THE BLESSING THAT HE HAD PREPARED FOR HIM AND FOR THE GENERATIONS TO COME. THE LORD PROMISED HE WOULD BE WITH HIM AND WOULD NOT LEAVE HIM BUT WOULD BRING HIM AGAIN INTO THE LAND. THE STONES THAT WERE USED AS PILLOWS OF COMFORT WERE MADE PILLARS OF THE HOUSE OF GOD. MEANWHILE, WHILE WAITING TO OBTAIN HIS PROMISE JACOB WAITED AND WORKED IN THE HOUSE OF COVETOUS PRACTICES (LABAN) FOR  MORE THAN FOURTEEN YEARS. THE NATURAL BLESSING CAME THROUGH DECEPTION AND THE FIRST WIFE WAS GIVEN BY THE SPIRIT OF DECEPTION. THEN HE RECEIVED THE WIFE HE WAS LABORING FOR . HE MADE THINGS RIGHT WITH HIS BROTHER WITH WHOM HE HAD STOLE AND THEN AS HE BEGAN TO SOJOURN INTO THE NEXT MILESTONE OF HIS DESTINY, HE WRESTLED UNTIL THE BREAK OF DAY, AND HE GRASPED AHOLD OF THE MAN OF GOD (ANGEL OF THE LORD) AND WOULD NOT TURN HIM LOOSE. SEE THAT ANGEL WAS THE CLOSEST CONNECTION THAT HE HAD TO GOD AND HE PREVAILED AGAINST THE ANGEL, HE SAID, “I WON’T LET GO UNTIL YOU BLESS ME”. I DON’T WANT THE BLESSING THAT WAS MEANT FOR MY BROTHER. I DON’T WANT AN INHERITANCE THAT WAS RECEIVED THROUGH COVETOUS PRACTICES, LIES, AND DECEIT. I WANT THE LORD! I WANT MY OWN BLESSING. I WANT WHAT’S PURE. I WANT WHAT’S HOLY. I WANT WHAT’S RIGHTEOUS… THAT’S ESTABLISHED JUST FOR ME. THERE’S A NATURAL ORDER TO THINGS AND THEN THERE’S A SPIRITUAL ORDER TO THINGS. SINCE YOU’VE WON FAVOR WITH GOD I’M GOING TO PUT YOU IN ANOTHER DIMENSION. I’M GOING TO ENLARGE YOUR TERRITORY. THAT REQUIRES A NEW NAME. YOU HAVE A NAME TO LIVE BY. YOUR NATURAL FATHER CALLED YOU TRICKSTER. I’M CALLING YOU ISRAEL MEANING “HAS PREVAILED”. YOU HAVE POWER WITH GOD AND WITH MEN. THEN HE NAMED THE PLACE OF TH EENCOUNTER, PENUEL, MEANING,“HAVING SEEN THE FACE OF GOD AND LIVED.” YOU’VE BEEN WRESTLING WITH OTHER NATIONS EVEN WHILE YOU WERE IN THE MIDST OF YOUR MOTHER’S WOMB. SURELY HAVING SEEN THE FACE OF GOD AND OBTAINED A BLESSING…HAVING PREVAILED OVER THE ANGEL, HE DIDN’T WALK AWAY FROM A FIGHT WITHOUT BEING BROKEN. THE ANGEL TOUCHED HIM AND HE WALKED AWAY LIMPING. BECAUSE I’M BROKEN , I’M BLESSED. BECAUSE I’M BROKEN I HAVE OBTAINED MY PROMISE. SOMETHING HAPPENED TO ME THAT CAUSED MY BROKENNESS. I DIDN’T GET BROKEN ALL BY MYSELF. BECAUSE THE LORD HAS GIVEN ME POWER WITH GOD AND WITH MEN, I AM BROKEN IN THE MASTER’S HAND. I HAVE EXCHANGED THE CORRUPTIBLE FOR INCORRUPTIBLE. SO THE LORD SAYS OUT OF EGYPT HAVE I CALLED MY SON. THERE IS MORE THAT IS REQUIRED. AN OVERCOMING SPIRIT IS REQUIRED. THE OVERCOMERS SHALL SEE GOD!

​REV 6:9

And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the alter the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O’ Lord, Holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
And white robes were given unto every one of them; and ot was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellow-servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
Rev 8:1-5
And when He had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in Heaven about the space of an half an hour.
And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.
And another angel came and stood at the alter, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden alter which was before the throne.
And the smoke of the incense which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the Angel’s hand.
And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the alter and cast it onto the earth: and there were voices, and thundering, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
When the Lord Jesus Christ opened the fifth seal He revealed the need for justice and judgment for those who were slain for the Word of God. They held fast to the testimony of the Lord Jesus Christ.

! Corinthians 9:13-14
Do ye know that they which minister about Holy things live of the things of the temple? And they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar?
Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel. The Lord revealed that there was an altar. An altar is where sacrifice takes place. An altar is where His all consuming fire accepts our sacrifice and where petitions and prayers are made. The Lord through the Apostle Paul that we ought to present ourselves living sacrifices unto God, Holy, and acceptable and that it is our reasonable service. Those who had sacrificed themselves for the word of God cried unto the Lord asking, “how long?” He advised them that there were others who would die in the like manner as they. They were given white robes until the Lord’s will was fulfilled concerning them. As gatekeepers and royal priesthood wer are first partakers of those things pertaining to the altar. We must walk in holiness. We must worship. We mut praise. We must seek the Lord’s face and pray. When our obedience is fulfilled, then shall the Lord recompense vengeance for our sake.
Zechariah 2:12-13
And the Lord shall inherit Judah his portion in the Holy Land, and shall choose Jerusalem again. Be silent, O’ all flesh, before the lord: for He is raised up out of His Holy habitation.
So when the Lord had opened the seventh seal there was silence in Heaven for approximately one half hour. The word confirms in the Holy prophet Zechariah that the Lord shall inherit his people and that the silence took place because it was commanded of the Holy angels because the Lord had moved out of His Holy place. Some moved the Lord from his throne and it is confirmed in chapter 8 that it was the partakers of the altar, the saints of God who were willing to watch and pray. Remember, that the Lord used Moses to show us a pattern that was established on the earth according to how things have been established in Heaven.
Hebrews 8:1-5
Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: we have such an high priest, who is et on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the Heavens;
A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.
For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer.
For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there were priests that offer gifts according to the law:
Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when He was about to make the tabernacle (For, see, saith He, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to the in the mount.
So the saints of God prayed and offered sacrifices of prayer and petition to the living God and the angels of the Lord completed the work in Heaven having a golden censer and much incense. The Lord is not just the author , but is also the finisher or our faith (Heb 11:6). He who hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Oftentimes throughout scripture references the Lord has mentioned Gold as symbolic of purity See 1Peter 1:7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than that of Gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour, and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: So there is no coincidence that the angel used a golden censer to offer prayers of the saints before the throne of God. The incense was burned often during times of prayer to offer sweet aroma as a gift unto God and to honor Him.
In Rev 8 the angel is given duty to offer the prayers with much incense and it was a sweet savoring aroma that moved the Lord form his throne to act in judgment and justice on behalf of the saints of God.
Psalms 54:7
For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies. The angel of god using the censer which is somewhat of a shovel. He used it to move the fire of the alter (consuming fire) and cast it to the earth. Because of his unity with his heritage and his chosen people, the Lord, by His spirit, pours his judgment in the earth according to the prayers of the righteous for they availed much.
For these resons we must be sure that our prayers are righteous and in unity by the spirit of God. We must decrease and the spriit must increase. We must allow the Holy Spirit to pray because we in the flesh cannot pray prayers that are pure and pleasing unto God, but He has given us His Holy Spirit to utter unto Him His will with the refining fire that will purify on our behalf so that we offer a sweet aroma unto the throne of God in unity with the other saints for judgment sake. We have other saints crying unto God, “How Long?” So we must do these things for the sake of those who have paved the way for us so that we could have such a privilege to come before the throne of grace and move God from His habitation place on our behalf.
