#77

I've been seeing the number 77 a lot recently.  Not only seeing it, but receiving it, hearing it, and accidentally typing it!  One of the more unique ways that Yahweh speaks is through numbers. These messages often point to future acts--so their delivery usually have prophetic significance.  God wants us to know what's going on!

John Paul Jackson on Numbers

Numbers typically relate to symbolism.  For example, this "77" theme was confirmed through a friend, who prophetically delivered Genesis 41 to me:

And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can interpret it: and I have heard say of thee, that thou canst understand a dream to interpret it.
And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace.
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the bank of the river:
And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fatfleshed and well favoured; and they fed in a meadow:
And, behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor and very ill favoured and leanfleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness:
And the lean and the ill favoured kine did eat up the first seven fat kine:
And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them; but they were still ill favoured, as at the beginning. So I awoke.
 And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up in one stalk, full and good:
And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them:
And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears: and I told this unto the magicians; but there was none that could declare it to me.
And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God hath shewed Pharaoh what he is about to do.
The seven good kine are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one.
And the seven thin and ill favoured kine that came up after them are seven years; and the seven empty ears blasted with the east wind shall be seven years of famine.
This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do he sheweth unto Pharaoh.
Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:
And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land;
And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine following; for it shall be very grievous.
And for that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice; it is because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.

There's a lot of symbolism here!  But what is the message for me, at this point of this current season? Basically, it's to save money!

That's the main message, but not the only one.  God often weaves several elements into one message, into one symbolic theme.  Notice that He gave Pharaoh a very multifaceted dream that delivered one prophetic instruction.  Several things converged to give one main instruction--one main call to action.
77 is also one of the numbers representative of Yahshua.  Why?  Because He was born of the 77th generation after Adam.  Redemption complete!  Fittingly, Jesus Himself instructed us to forgive our brother 77 times (Matthew 18:22).  That's an appropriate command to be given by the One who brought forgiveness to all!  Yahshua's command here is one of just many that subliminally pointed to Himself

Our Heavenly Father gives us numbers to speak holistically to every arena of our lives.  He uses numbers as a sort of comprehensive prophecy, to meet us where we're at right now.

God will speak to you through numbers, if you're open to it.  He'll give you a sign.  He'll show you and re-confirm to you the Spirit's streams of teaching in your life.
