The Spirit of Prophecy
John saw people worship the devil who gave the antichrist his
power. They also worshiped the antichrist, saying, who is like him and who can make war with him?
He spoke
great things and blashpemed God, His name, His tabernacle, all who dwell in heaven. But he only had power to rule for
42 months (3 1/2 years). He had power to make war with all believers in Yeshua, and to overcome them. But he only
had power to overcome those saints who did not overcome him first, by the blood of the lamb, the word of their testimony,
and by not loving their own lives more than Yeshua Messiah (they were not willing to lay down their lives for
Yeshua).
John also saw that the false prophet looked like a lamb, and spoke like a devil. He was
a deceiver, exercising all the power of the antichrist, and causing the earth and everyone on it (whose names are not written
in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world) to worship the antichrist.
He could do
great signs and wonders, even making fire come down from the sky in plain view of everyone. He deceived people by those
miracles, telling them to make an image to the antichrist, which had the wound by a sword, and lived.
The
false prophet could even make that image come to life, make it speak, and make it sentence people to death for not worhiping
it. He caused all to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads so that no man could buy or sell, unless
he had the mark, or the name of the antichrist, or the number of his name.
Rev. 13:18 Here is wisdom.
Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six
hundred threescore and six.
What does this mean for us; today?
It's time to start gathering provisons
now; before the 42 months begin. Those provisions are not physical; physical food or clothing. Like the parable
of the 10 virgins, the oil for their lamps represented God's Spirit/His light to walk by/His anointing. Like warriors
ready for battle, we are to always keep our clothes/armour on. The armour represents God's Spirit; His Light; His
Anointing.
We must work together, helping each other put on God's Light. Teach each other how to overcome;
by the blood of the Lamb, the word of our testimony, and by being mentally prepared to lay down our lives for Yeshua.
Revelation 12:11
What is The Armour?
2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling
away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
All that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names
are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. Revelation 13:8
