Everybody carries a mark? Some will be either marked by God or by the devil? Either they will produce the fruits of this world or of the Spirit? Which marks do you carry in your body and heart? The mark of the beast or the mark of God? When it comes to faith or fear, truth or lie, evil or good, the narrow way looks like something – Christ!
The shame of our nakedness will appear to all men. To the World, to the carnal, it looks like one thing, but to God, it seems like something totally different. Let’s have eyes to see. God has torn the veil so we could see clearly what is really happening. The Bible talks about being filled with darkness and being blind.
Read Revelation 13:9-18.
This passage talks about the image of the beast, about giving power to the image of the beast.
Some people keep focusing on a mark on the right hand and on the forehead but what about worshipping the IMAGE of who? – Satan. We see what his image is in this epistle. Religious people promise that they won’t take the mark, but they are following their own lust, the pride of life, and they think they will be able to renounce the mark when the mark is already in their hearts. One thing that sticks out in the passage in Revelation 13:-15 is that it does not say “they will worship the beast” but they would worship the image of the beast – the characteristics of the beast: fear, self-reliance, the lust of the world, pride of life, and idolatry.
If you can’t depend on God right now, how can you make it when you can’t buy or sell? The laws of the land will change. What are you going to do? God showing right now in his mercy.
The entire reason for control is that many will not be able to buy or sell, making people fear for their own safety and their own kingdom, their own livelihood. In doing so, they are making the World our supplier instead of God – this is the beast! Where your treasure is there will your heart be. This is why the Word says, “Greater is He that is in me than he who is in the world.” Is that light in you surely bright?
Satan’s kingdom is based on fear. Everything we do and do not do is based on fear. Fear is of the World or of the kingdom of the devil. But fruit of the mark of God is faith. Follow Him and He will never leave you. You won’t receive the promises of Him without pleasing Him. The only way to please Him is through faith. So, it tells us to come out of Babylon besides buying and selling and food and raiment. So let’s say that the beast is government, and let’s say we are slaves to the system of Babylon, so we are all trained to get loans and become a slave to the system. So when and if the banks are taken over by governments, guess what? Now the beast will own your house, so they say take the mark and we will give you your home. This an example. We will flee home and could have to do that overnight today. Are you prepared for what is coming?
The image of the beast - We are focusing on the image of the beast but we are supposed to focus on the image of God and FAITH. The image of Satan is fear. God is Truth and His word is Jesus – the Word that was made flesh. Jesus Christ says, “If you see Me you see the Father,” the Father of light.
Jesus Christ was representing the image of God – which is totally the opposite of the image of the beast. The image of God is this and we are bought by His blood, sealed with His name ... nothing else matters.
“And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father’s name written in their foreheads.” (Revelation 14:1)
“And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.” (Revelation 22:4)
If the Word has been written upon your heart now, surely His Name will be written on your forehead. The marked by God are the ones who are redeemed from among them; they followed the lamb wherever He goes; in their mouth was found no guile; they are without fault before the throne of God.
Read 1 John 2:3-22.
The laws of God are higher than the laws of man. Daniel decided to obey God above the laws of the king. When man loses control of something, man starts fearing.
Jesus did not fear all the way to the cross. Even the religious rulers did not stop Him. Righteousness was still in Him. Darkness has blinded the eyes of those who are not being marked by God as the Word is written in them and on their hearts.
Fear of loss causes us to try to keep it. Storing up is a product of fear. They (the carnal) will call that wisdom and call us foolish when it is the opposite. Paul said, “I don’t come to you with the wisdom of man but in power and in demonstration.” Of what? – THE WORD. What will follow the word with faith…Power, but it is all ingredients all together and it’s lovely.
The image of the beast is the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. Many have been worshipping it since long ago. Revelation talks about two kingdoms colliding! The wisdom of God is the word of God and the word of God is the Spirit of God and the spirit of God is the spirit of truth and He will guide us into all Truth. Many have resisted the Word of God that became flesh right in front of their eyes. Carnality separates us from God. He is Spirit. Their father is the devil because they follow the image of the beast. The Bible calls this the Spirit of the age – 101 Anti-Christ spirit!
God is revealing those who came out from among us but they are not from us. The fearful ones. They exalt themselves above the word of God. It is the lusting, the going after the flesh that causes us trouble. Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envying, murders, drunkenness, reveling – these are the devil’s fruits of the ones that follow the image of the beast. The beast is carnality and earthly, and flesh is its road. They walk on it. I am sorry the religious among us are partaking of some of these fruits.
The religious will be focused on a tattoo or a stamp or chip when actually the mark of the beast is already exposed in the open. Do you see it? Can you see the marks of the beast in the heart of man? Can you see the marks of God in the heart of man? It is already there. Look at the fruits. Look at the image of the beast. We are trees that are planted by the river of living water, oaks of righteousness.
Satan will be mad at those who follow God. We must be crucified to the world. And the world must be dead for us. People have the fear of even hearing Truth because they are afraid. They are afraid of the true prophets. This is the worst kind of fear. They stay afraid of any Truth that has any kind of reality to present darkness, that is fear-mongering to them. They are so afraid. The devil is even making them afraid of the Truth. Now that’s deep fear. Their reality is this: “God is good and is in control.” But to put that belief above the wiles of the devil only makes you ignorant to Satan’s devices. We do not focus on Satan but we do not resist the truth. That belief will blind you to the prophetic and present-day Truth. As we focus on Jesus, He shows us the way and gives us discernment.
What are the marks of Jesus Christ in you? Who is bearing it? You ask, “What are you talking about?” I am talking about the mark of Christ that Paul carried in his own body.
“And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.
Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.” Galatians 6:16-18
“I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:14 –There is a mark of God for those who press toward the high calling of God.
Read Revelation 7:1-10.
Let’s look at God’s mark. The devil can see the anointing in your life. Can you see it? No. Only we can see the manifestations of it. The manifestation of it is done by the fruits that we produce because it is a spiritual mark. There is a spiritual seal. A mark in their minds: having their minds renewed. We are to be conformed to the World or to be transformed into the image of Christ? Two supernatural things at hand.
There is a great multitude marked by God that we can’t even number. From every tribe, nation, and tongue. This is talking about us, His church, His bride.
Now think about this concerning the mark of the beast on the forehead and the right hand:
What if the forehead means Satan trying to mark your mind? What if the right hand means making an agreement, commitment, or fellowship with Satan? Remember: Right hand is mentioned in the Word as the right hand of fellowship. Before one can even be marked on the outside, the anti-Christ has been working on the inside of them – that is what I am trying to relate to you. Be filled with oil or filled with the World. How great is that light or how great is that darkness!
What will fearful Christians say to you? “Oh, Brother, you need wisdom.” I said, “Whose wisdom are you trying to give to me? The wisdom of God or the wisdom of men? Your wisdom tells me to fear.” The wisdom of God cries out on the corner and nobody wants to listen to it. God is wisdom.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. So with that, Paul says, “ I don’t come to you with the wisdom of men, but with demonstration of the power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.” What is that power, authority over everything from this world! So no sickness, no diseases, no deadly thing can touch us. We can’t have two masters: The news is your master all week and on Sunday the Bible becomes your master? No. We need to cling to one God – one newsletter called the Bible.
Whose voice do you listen to? The voice of fear or the voice of faith? Carnally minded is death! Many are following the image of the beast without even knowing it. I am crying out to you. Time is short. Get a grip. Cling to the hem of His garment, not to a vaccine, not to a false peace, but to Him who knew no sin.
Read Romans 8.
When Paul wrote the letter back to a group of believers, it was because the law of the land told him not to preach THE WAY. And He said, “King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to follow the heavenly vision.” He still preached. I can’t follow those who follow the image of the beast. Many have been transformed into the image of the beast but it is possible to be transformed into the image of God. How? By the power He gives us to become sons of God, sons of thunder, and sons of faith.
Many will hear this message and still will be looking for a way to fight against Truth.
But remember: At the end, God takes those who were marked by Him, and Satan will take his marked ones. Who is marking you today? Let His mercy shine. We must stand up in the middle of persecution. If we live by the Spirit, we will kill the fear that the flesh produces. I am choosing to hear what the Spirit is saying, not the manipulation and witchcraft of man!
What has God told us this week? Walk by faith. Faith will produce the supernatural things in your life.
This is a great opportunity to shine in the light in the middle of this dark moment that is really nothing. This is nothing. This is a joke compared to what is coming in the near future. The law of this land is not your God. We need to not use those two passages that religion cherry-picks to follow the beast. Satan will quote all the way to delusion and deception. Yes, we follow the rules and regulations laws of man until it becomes sinning against faith and the word of God. We need real Christian leaders in this hour and God has them ready and prepared to take His people to the Promised Land. Not a bunch of cowards with skinny jeans, a mustache, and a tattoo, but real voices of FAITH! Without compromise!
Let’s take back all that fear stole from us. The devil will speak through fear. Fear has a voice if you let it. Satan will turn lies into truth. But those who are marked by God will always follow Truth.
Those marked by Satan follow fear. Those marked by God follow faith.
Read Hebrews 10:22-26.
Let your heart be filled with the assurance of faith. Instead of hiding yourself until Satan tells you, “You can come out now.” They will say, “You are disobedient.” To the beast? Yes, I am. It was against the law for Peter to come out and preach but His shadow was even being sought after. People wanted to get close to him. How would he have glorified God if he would have listened to them who made a law against Him. He is faithful to His promise. Let’s consider and provoke one another to faith, and TRUE LOVE obeys God rather than man is what Peter said. To walk in the faith of God. Here comes another division between those who are among us. The carnal-minded and worldly church are falling away rapidly but His remnant is not bowing to Baal or to fear or to lack.
What is inspiring you? We are all led by a spirit. But what spirit are you being led by?
Who is the one who marked you? Very easy to know. The one you follow. Don’t look from something that has been in the heart since the fall of Satan. It is in the heart. The mark of Satan or the mark of God? It is an invisible mark but the fruits will show which one is which. Choose this day which mark you will take. If you are not taking the marks of Jesus Christ today, chances are that when and if there is a stamp, a chip, or whatever, you will take it because you don’t have oil.
Read John 17:14-17 and Romans 12:1-3.
If we sin, if we fear, we must repent. It is better to die in faith. After we have received the knowledge of the Truth, if we fight against it, we are walking near a slippery slope.
Heads of martyrs are being chopped off and we are worried about a cold? Do not forsake the assembling together (Hebrews 10:22-26)! And you are following the voice of the beast by not having fellowship? Did Daniel bow down? No. How about inviting everyone with a virus or a sickness to your fellowship so God can show His power and His Glory and be known who He is!
Are you conforming or transforming?
Those marked by God are not of this world. We are not OF IT! They don’t conform with this World. They are being transformed daily. They know it. There is no wisdom, no power, no deliverance, no salvation, and no righteousness without faith. Those marked by God are not filled with the spirit of fear but a sound mind! They have the mind of Christ. Rooted and grounded, they can’t be tossed to and fro. This is a great blessing. This is the test and this is the trial of our faith. Take advantage of the awesomeness of it.
I don’t want to follow a leader that does everything that the World tells him to do. There will be massacre done by the anti-Christ just because we followed a fearful leader.
Who will be bringing the Gospel if the preachers already have the mark on their hearts?
Read Mark 10.
Whoever does not receive the Truth will carry the marks of Satan and will follow the image of the beast. The ones marked by God will be hated by all men. The marked by God ones– must endure until the end or they won’t make.
Fear them not! The marked by God will not fear them!
Fear not them that can kill the body but the one that can kill the soul. If you bow to the lies of Satan, that will kill your soul because the works of darkness always produce death. Whatever the devil tries to do to this body, it will stay down here on earth. Pay attention to what he wants to do with your soul. Because your soul will end up somewhere, for eternity. He wants to touch not only your body but your soul. Whatever your soul is connected to, it will follow. Forget about this earthly tent (body). It will stay here anyway.
So today, make sure that you carry no other mark than the mark that Paul talked about: the mark of Christ, and that you follow the image, not of the beast, but the image of God!
