I moved where I am now and started a new life outside of the system.

This required getting back to nature, something I naturally (no pun intended) like to do anyway. I never seemed to fit into the corporate mold. I've been a Painter and/or..Tradesman, if you will, most of my life. So in my new place I had a few experiences cutting firewood for the winter. While out and about I started to find many sticks that could be used for staffs, walking sticks etc... Thinking along the lines of a "Lord of the Rings" style stick. Like a staff or Scepter. I decided to craft the sticks and make them into art. So I started stripping the bark and then staining them, painting them adding this or that to them to make them more like a "tribal" stick.It allowed me to be creative & was very therapeutic. Peaceful, expressive, relaxing etc. I have also studied Hebrew prophecy & other spiritual things for 25 years. In particular, of late studying the prophecy of Yahuwah(Biblical Elohim/God) talking to Ezekiel about the 2 sticks. Which is here: Ezekiel Chapter 37 [15] The word of Yahuwah came again unto me, saying, [16] Moreover, you son of man, take you one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and for all the house of Israel his companions: [17] And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in yours hand. [18] And when the children of your people shall speak unto you, saying, Will you not show us what you mean by these? [19] Say unto them, Thus says the Yahuwah; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand. [20] And the sticks whereon you write shall be in yours hand before their eyes. [21] And say unto them, Thus says Yahuwah; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, where they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land: [22] And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all. [23] Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwelling places, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their Elohim. (God)

So I knew this was talking about the day he returns & gathers his people, restoring the 2 houses that make up his people, Yisrael/Israel, (Northern half of the Kingdom)the 10 tribes scattered throughout the earth. And Judah, (southern half of the Kingdom) the 2 tribes of the Judites & Benjamites who were also taken into captivity but some who have returned/reside in Palestine. But in any case not all have returned, obviously. So where are they? Side-note: Just so you know...I believe there are Elohim -or- what we would call aliens or extraterrestrial beings that were once here. All records of ancient text AND the archeological record, show this to be true. It is just a matter of which tribe or Elohim you are from & what your place is on earth in relationship to this predestination of events & spiritual ascension your a part of. Call me strange but don't call me Shirley, thanks.. :) Ok back to the event... The prophetic writing above, provoked me to consider just who were this people Israel (Ten

northern tribesmen), scattered around the world and how the "commercial nation" of Israel could not possibly be the fulfillment of this and other "like" prophecies, because HE is not here to rule over them.... This being scattered is very much a, verifying scriptural factor, that runs throughout all of the prophecies in regard to this subject. So Israel , at the very least, must be "other" people, as well,... but who, exactly? Yahuwah said he would "call a people not his people, his people." That he would send them out among the Gentile nations...for a time. So who really "is" or "could be" the descendants of the 10 Northern tribes & where were they now? Again not to say there are not..., in Palestine, descendants, but it would follow that if the prophecy be true, then there are many.."as the stars of the sea" and "as the sand on the seashore" people scattered around this planet, fulfilling the blessing of Abraham. Those under the new covenant, by faith, children of Abraham and heirs according to the promise. None the less....here is what happened, to me one fine day. I was making one of the sticks, right after reading he prophecy above mentioned, this "stick" prophecy in Ezekiel came to mind. I decided to make a stick that represented this particular prophecy. a replica or similar type of stick. I did not make 2 sticks, just one, representing the "whole prophecy" and me" thinking of it". I pondered what the prophet might have thought, as he made the sticks in his day, writing on them etc. I don't know Hebrew not any other language so I used my own symbols as a mock representation of the prophet writing on the stick. Then I put a Jewel in the middle, painted it, clear coated it..etc It ended up being a really nice stick. It is S-Shaped...quite unusual in itself. ***************************************************** A few days later I was again, making a stick, this time I thought about the prophecy and wondered about my OWN heritage and IF I possibly, was one of the descendants of the lost tribes. I knew I was Irish and also Cherokee Indian on my Mom's side as well as Lithuanian on Dad's side. I decided to make this stick black & green representing MY heritage...or what I know of it today. A more simple design. This stick is also S-Shaped but in it's own way & different from the first stick. Both sticks are from different areas, found at different times. **************************************************** Now..A friend of mine sent me a link to the video "Israel: Identity Crisis" by Jim Staley IN this video he explains the 2 sticks prophecy, and of all things he also mentions that the "Cherokee Indians" have been found to have been practicing the feast of the Hebrews, identifying them with the lost tribes...literally. This followed with finding other videos of similar findings by archeologist & men studying this subject in other states, where they have found similar findings and artifacts, hidden until now.

In this video of Israel, Jim mentions the Cherokee Indians and the "Jubilee stone" and so I looked it up on Google. It was found in,.. none other than Tennessee. This is where I am now located, because of a prophecy given 40 years ago that led me to this very place. So now I am in awe...as well as even more intrigued. What are the odds that the SAME prophecy that I was studying, (about Israel and Judah)... and the video I was watching being about lost tribes of Israel finding their identity ... plus my Cherokee heritage AND the Cherokee's being mentioned in the video... and the sticks (that I found here, in Tennessee) that I am making ... and the Cherokee stone found, where I am now located, because of a prophecy 40 years ago ... just happen to all coincide with a couple of sticks I made and then... all of this culminate in my life, in one single day? **************************************************** It was at that moment that I felt Yahuwah speak to me by the spirit, silently but clearly and said.. ...."go put "your" two sticks together". I actually said out loud.."No WAY..!!!" I was compelled to go see, feeling like an idiot, truth be known ( Talking about reading into things right? lol) And so I went over and got these two sticks that I had made. One that represented me "thinking of the prophecy in Ezekiel" and one of "my own Cherokee/Irish/Lithuanian heritage" and placed them together. Like the Prophet did in the passage in Ezekiel.. The two sticks,.. though not really alike, wrap around one another perfectly . If you take the bottom and give it a simple push,.... they "snap" together making one stick. I kid you not. Yahuwah spoke to me and said, "Do you not think I have everything planned out?" The only reason you don't see it more in your life, is because you pay attention to the things of the world (man made), more than my ways (spiritual/natural), or what I am doing in life." For me, this confirms that this prophecy of Ezekiel is now at work, as a step in a "returning" , "spiritually" -or- an awakening and some people being called to know their true identity, heritage & family.... With this I mean to imply their "spiritual make up" from the creation of man by the Elohim. The part of themselves that has the "breath" or "spirit" of the Elohim in their very being. ..."restoring the hearts of the people to the father(s) and the father(s) to the people." This returning of the identity of the house-nations-tribesmen of "Spiritual" Israel, those scattered in the earth...spoken of in ALL prophecies, is congruently a future event that will ONLY be accomplished by Yahuwah himself when he returns to establish his Kingdom & people in the earth once again. After the destruction and subsequent renewal of this planet. I believe the Cherokee people, are some of those scattered ancient tribes that dwelt in tents of Israel/Hebrew descent. Descendants of the 10 Northern Tribes of Israel that were, over time...scattered..now returning to fulfill the prophecy to once again KNOW his Name, know WHO they are and eventually to return to

his restored house, to be his people in the earth. As well as many, many other people, from many different tribes, tongues & nations.....who knows...."YOU" could be one yourself -or- you may have a different path? You can take it however you'd like, however..what are the odds of the two sticks? Coincidence? Fate? Depends on your beliefs I guess.I imagine the math is probably astounding...or maybe a quantum quirk? lol In any case, I hope that you will find your own heritage, path and walk in life....so I make sticks for others, hoping they too can use a "Tribal Stick" of their own and walk, enjoying the journey we call life. Namaste David "Running Fox" Lukasovich 45 years walking this planet & thankfully so ;) "Life is an adventure - don't be scared to live it!" :)
