| The first excerpt represents the past or something you must release, and is drawn from King James Bible: desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them.
JOE 2:4 The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as
horsemen, so shall they run.
JOE 2:5 Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they
leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a
strong people set in battle array.
JOE 2:6 Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces
shall gather blackness.
JOE 2:7 They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like
men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall
not break their ranks:

The second excerpt represents the present or the deciding factor of the moment, and is drawn from King James Bible: give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over
them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?
JOE 2:18 Then will the LORD be jealous for his land, and pity his
people.
JOE 2:19 Yea, the LORD will answer and say unto his people, Behold, I
will send you corn, and wine, and oil, and ye shall be satisfied
therewith: and I will no more make you a reproach among the heathen:
JOE 2:20 But I will remove far off from you the northern army, and will
drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face toward the east
sea, and his hinder part toward the utmost sea, and his stink shall come
up, and his ill savour shall come up, because he hath done great things.

The third excerpt represents the future or something you must embrace, and is drawn from King James Bible: they come unto thee, and say unto thee, Declare unto us now what thou
hast said unto the king, hide it not from us, and we will not put thee
to death; also what the king said unto thee:
JER 38:26 Then thou shalt say unto them, I presented my supplication
before the king, that he would not cause me to return to Jonathan's
house, to die there.
JER 38:27 Then came all the princes unto Jeremiah, and asked him: and
he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded.
So they left off speaking with him; for the matter was not perceived.
JER 38:28 So Jeremiah abode in the court of the prison until the day
that Jerusalem was taken: and he was there when Jerusalem was taken.
