11:11

For years now I and along with so many others have seen the number 11:11. It might be on our clocks, watches, through a prophetic word or even on a sales slip at the store. As far as Questions on numbers it is the most asked, "what does the number 1111 mean"?

My answer to myself and others most of the time is to go to the word first and see if you can find a chapter and verse that match 1111. Then I will go to the internet and google Biblical numbers. But, I will tell you that there are times when God gives you these special numbers and will give you a special meaning as well.
Back to 1111. For me what I have found is that the one of the meanings of the number 11 means a time of transiton. So, when there are 2 of them together that is a double whammy on the transiton. I think many of you can relate to that wonderful word TRANSITION.

Over a year ago I felt like the Lord spoke to me very clearly and said, "watch Egypt". So for that amount of time I have been watching and praying over that region. So, on Tuesday, 25 January 2011 the rioting in Egypt started I was not surprised and asked God what He was doing. I felt like this is what He told me. "You watch, this is the beginning of a domino effect. Egypt is the first and other nations will fall as well because I am causing the principalities to fall." I felt so strongly that God was moving His hand in this and that we as a people of God must position ourselves at this time and pray for those failing governments to be established His way. So, as you pay attention to the middle east you can see what is happening as people are rising up. It is like there is a veil that has been lifted and the people are standing up and saying it's enough. We must pray for leaders who will alliance themselves with Israel. We must see that God is moving and that He is establishing His ways.I came flipping through my bible looking for another verse when my eyes fell onto a verse that I had underlined in gold ink. It was Isaiah 11:11
It shall come to pass in that day
That the Lord shall set His hand again the second time
To recover the remnant of His people who are left,
From Assyria and Egypt,
From Pathros and Cush,
From Elam and Shinar,
From Hamath and the islands of the sea.

Rick Joyner uses this verse when he is explaining his take on the number 1111. He calls the meaning 'the second chance'.
When I read this verse and started thinking of where these places were I realized that this truly is a time of second chance and transition in the region of the world.

Let me just say that I felt some what the same way when Iraqi fell. I felt that Iraqi was the first fruits of what would be happening in the middle east.
As of late though I've been thinking about the whole world and what is happening. So, I end with this thought, "It seems like there is change going on all over the whole and that principalities are falling or are close to collapse. Might it be that those powers of the air are being shaken and those demonic holds as in power and greed are falling faster then we can think. I know there is corruption in our nation and all nations and could it just be that God is standing up and saying "enough". Just maybe we are moving into the greatest time of our history. God is on the move and giving us a second chance.
