The War In Heaven
One Word Will Win It
"And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven." - Revelation 12:6-8.
"Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come. But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince." - Daniel 10:12-21.
I can see by the sentiments, responses, posts, trolling and triggering that the “war in heaven” is already test-firing their weapons. And I am not guiltless in that department.
Last night, I was on Truth Social, GAB, and Twitter/X and I just read down through the posts. I think the only ones I permitted responses to were on Twitter/X.
As I was responding, I could feel my mood drop; and I realized something . . .
The War in Heaven has already begun. And we’re being used as tools against God in this very war.
The more I read down through the threads, the more I felt anger: yet I also saw the trenches of division being dug through the multitude of humanity.
Do any of us realize that we have a lot more in common then we have differences? Especially when those “differences” are marked and staked by men who want control of the kingdom?
Where IS the kingdom of God? What did Jesus say in Luke 17:21? “behold, the kingdom of God is within you."
What did Paul the Apostle say in 1 Corinthians 6:19: “know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?”
The Kingdom of Heaven is within you. Your body is the “temple”. The “war of Armageddon” will take place within you. The “falling away” happens within you: Because it happens in the sanctuary of the “Messiah the Prince” first. The “abomination” is set up IN the Messiah the Prince, for the overspreading of it.
The “War in Heaven” is the same “fight” that the angel is talking to Daniel about in chapter 10 of that book: “Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee?” WHEREfore = “do you know from where I came? And now I go back to fight . . .” The angel came from the war in heaven to tell Daniel about it.
What was the adversary after in the man child? Why did the enemies pollute the sanctuary of strength in the “Messiah the Prince”?
The war didn’t start because the dragon wanted the body, it started after he realized he was withheld from that which is sought IN the sanctuary of the man child, and was cast to the earth. This was his last chance steal the throne. He’s already lost. “This is It”.
The Most Valuable Publishing Ever
What was in the “sanctuary” that the adversary had to pass through to get to the throne? What was “taken out of the way” and “caught up to God and to his throne”? And where did this happen? In the man child.
"Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord: And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it." - Amos 8:11-12.
"Speak unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will profane my sanctuary, the excellency of your strength, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul pitieth; and your sons and your daughters whom ye have left shall fall by the sword." - Ezekiel 24:21.
I keep hearing the defense that the scripture, “Christians” are “Israel” is “replacement theology”: They like to accuse others of what they have actually been doing. The Jews are “replacing” Israel because that is what the Bible tells us they are doing! At least, they are trying.
However; nobody is going to replace “Israel” – THEY have already attempted that by “stealing the Word”, or “making a name” unto themselves, or “making a star” which they claim is the star of David (See Psalm 139:14-16): or they sought to “take the Name of the Lord in vain”, which is why there is only a “remnant” left.
Israel is the one that replaced His Name in them by bending the knee to Baal: by committing adultery with Babylon.
The “replacement theology” is the Babylonian Talmud, not the Christian Bible.
“They changed their glory into the similitude of an ox” – Psalm 106:19-20.
The Lord’s enemies “take thy name in vain” – Psalm 139:20.
The children of Judah have “placed the abomination in the house called by my Name” – Jeremiah 7:30.
They “steal my words every one from his neighbor” – Jeremiah 23:30.
They have “made the Word of God of none effect” – Mark 7:12-13.
They have “taken away the key of knowledge” and “them that were entering in ye hindered” – Luke 11:52.
They have “changed the truth of God into a lie, worshipping and serving the creature” – Romans 1:25.
And “The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles, through you, as it is written” – Romans 2:24.
Israel had forgotten the Name of God; but the elect have had it revealed to them, for they have been chosen to be sealed with it.
"What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded." - Romans 11:7-8.
What happens to the rest of “Israel” then, if indeed they are cut off?
The “promise”, which they boastingly point out concerning “Israel” was not actually made to Israel: it was made to Abraham:
"And the angel of the Lord called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time, And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son:
That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice." - Genesis 22:16-18.
Israel isn't in existence yet when this happens, and wouldn't exist without this thing that Abraham did. Abraham manifested “The Word”. Jacob doesn't appear until Genesis 25:26; and Jacob isn't named “Israel” by the angel of the lord until Genesis 32:28.
The "promise" was made to Abraham's "seed": His SEED:
"Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ." - Galatians 3:16.
It is by His Seed that Israel exists: The “Seed” is Christ.
In the parable of the sower, Jesus explains in Luke chapter 8 that “The parable is this: The Seed is the Word of God”.
The “Seed is the Word”, and so if the Seed is Christ as Paul shared to the Galatians, he and Jesus in Luke 8 verify John 1:1 & John 1:14: that the Word is God, and the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us.
And of course in Revelation 19:13 “His Name is called the Word of God”. This is the “Name” with which the remnant is “sealed” in 2 Timothy 2:19 and Revelation 14:1.
The fulfillment of Israel comes through the remnant, through the Word. By this is Israel “increased in the land” in Jeremiah 3:16. Paul explains:
“I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel saying, Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal. Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace." - Romans 11:1-5.
So this “Word”; this “Name” is not only valuable to the elect: it is also valuable to them who seek to steal it out of you.
"Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved." - Luke 8:12.
The War in Heaven is over this WORD. The “Land” has no value without this Word.
We don’t know if there is really “gold” in Fort Knox. But there is “gold” in the “land”: and that land has a name, and it is a fortress, a “stronghold”.
That “stronghold” was named “Zion”. Zion was the “city of David”, which was also named “Bethlehem”. And Bethlehem means “house for the name of the Lord”.
House for the name of the Lord. We know what the children of Judah did to it in Jeremiah 7:30:
"For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith the Lord: they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to pollute it." - Jeremiah 7:30.
And this brings us back to the prophecies of Daniel and the Revelation of Jesus Christ to John concerning the “man child”: the “Messiah the Prince”.
Numbered
In the Hebrew, Syriac and Arabic and other Semitic languages, the letters of their Alphabet also represent numbers. This is also true in the Greek language. Why is this? Does it have anything to do with the language of our substance? Our DNA?
In Revelation chapter 13:17, we are introduced to the “beast” and the three forms of being marked with his number.
“…The mark, the name of the beast, or the number of his name”.
"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." - Revelation 13:18.
The only other verse in the Bible describing this “Six hundred threescore and six” is in the 1 Book of the Kings:
"Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred threescore and six talents of gold," - 1 Kings 10:13-15.
Note in the Revelation 13 verse, the number “Six hundred threescore and six” is capitalized, but not in the 1 Kings 10 verse. Talents. The link takes you to the etymology on that word, meaning “passion, will, desire, feeling” also “balance, weight, pair of scales”.
"This is the interpretation of the thing: Mene; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it. Tekel; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting." - Daniel 5:26-27.
666 Talents of gold came to Solomon. But “Israel” was also “numbered”:
"And Moses numbered them according to the word of the Lord, as he was commanded." - Numbers 3:16.
Israel was “numbered according to the word”.
How many of you know what the “Book of Numbers” is really about? The Tribes of Israel are counted, amongst other things. The purpose of this book is summarized in the first two verses:
"And the Lord spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of the congregation, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying, Take ye the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, after their families, by the house of their fathers, with the number of their names, every male by their polls;" - Numbers 1:1-2.
“The number of their names”. What is the “sum” of the name of the beast in Revelation 13?
We know the “sum” of the “remnant” of Israel is “a hundred and forty and four thousand” or, the “sum” of the “twelve thousand” of each of the twelve tribes of Israel.
The “sum” of the remnant of Israel is “a hundred and forty and four thousand”. The “sum” of the number of the beast’s name is “six hundred, threesore and six”, or “666”.
There is the elect that are “numbered” and there are those that are “numbered for the multitude” in Revelation 7. Below are instructions for Jacob:
"And thou saidst, I will surely do thee good, and make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude." - Genesis 32:11-13.
Jesus in his passion for souls of man, was crucified, and “numbered with the transgressors”:
"And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left. And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors. And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days," - Mark 15:27-29.
That “scripture” that was fulfilled in Mark 15 was prophesied in Isaiah 53:
"Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors." - Isaiah 53:12.
In Mark 15, Jesus on the cross is flanked by thieves on either side of him: “one on his right hand, and the other on his left.”. Does that sound familiar?
"Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it.
I will bring it forth, saith the Lord of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof." - Zechariah 5:1-4.
We are told that even the very hairs on our head are all numbered in Matthew 10:30.
We are numbered either as transgressors, as of the multitude, or as the remnant/elect of Israel: the latter two groups being those that John saw standing before the throne in Revelation 7.
Who escapes tribulation? Well. . .no one.
Yes, We Will See Tribulation
I was listening to a sermon when I got home from work on Wednesday. It was one of two I listened to, both preaching on the subject of the “antichrist”.
This is going to be a popular topic in the coming months and years. Both sermons included the “Pre-Tribulation” rapture, denoting their doctrine of Christ’s “church” not being here for the time of the tribulation.
Not only is this against what Jesus warns his disciples in Matthew 24 and Mark 13; it also overwrites what Jesus said about us “suffering for his namesake”.
In Revelation, especially chapter 2, verses 9-10, The church Smyrna will “suffer tribulation ten days”.
Every one of these “churches”, all seven of them mentioned in Revelation 2 and 3 will suffer temptations, tribulations and chastising. Are these not of Christ’s church? And if not why is Christ warning them?
Even the elect, as explained by Paul in the letters, will “suffer tribulation” as Paul is suffering tribulation. Yet the “day of wrath” we are told, we will not suffer. How is that?
"And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads." - Revelation 7:2-4.
We are also told:
"For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not." - Matthew 24:21-23.
And in Mark 13:19-21, this is repeated. So the “elect” will also be here, because those days will be “shortened” for “the elect’s sake”.
The Lord sent encouragement through John to the church of Philadelphia concerning the “hour of temptation”:
"Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth." - Revelation 3:9-11.
That “hour of temptation” corresponds to the “one hour” the ten kings have power with the beast in Revelation 17:12.
It is also interestingly parallel to Jesus’ admonishment to his disciples when they “fell asleep”, in Matthew 26:40 and Mark 14:37 when he said “could you not watch with me for one hour?”
The hour and the “day of temptation”: Look at what Paul says:
"Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years." - Hebrews 3:7-9.
This is exactly what you are seeing on social media and in the news today: “provocation”. The phrase “Provoke me to anger” appears 13 times in the Bible, in reference to them who “provoke the Lord” to anger (which appears another five times).
If you know and feel things are wrong, whether you can explain why or not, it is because something IN you is telling you this: “matter” doesn’t do this all by itself, it is the LIFE within the matter; within your “vessel”.
Whatever is anathema to the “love thy neighbor as thyself” within you will drop your countenance. And what moves you is witnessing someone manifesting that “greater love hath no man than this, that you lay down your life for a friend”.
Everything being thrown at you through the news, through “enter-attain-mind”, social media etc is to cast down that “greater love” within you, that is only of God. This atmosphere of division is a form of “oppression” (Psalm 54:3).
It’s all “noise” – a genre of “sound” that is engineered to break you down inside, and sever what it is that connects us to each other and to God.
"I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit. That which is crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting cannot be numbered." - Ecclesiastes 1:14-15.
“that which is wanting” that “cannot be numbered” will come to an end, as Daniel prophesied to Belshazzar, son of Nebuchadnezzar in Daniel chapter 5.
There is a way that the crooked will be made strait:
"And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them." - Isaiah 42:16.
Even if you don’t see, for now, the Lord will lead you if you trust him. What is in the news is lies. All of it is lies to “vex” the spirit in you. To “wax cold” the Love that God breathed into you.
We have some dark days coming, and people are going to need your help.
"And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force." - Matthew 11:12.
I will leave you with this prayer that another posted on social media.
I seal you in the most precious blood against any and all incursions of the evil one, in particular, against any clinging, familial, familiar or retaliating spirits and against any spirits sent or summoned against anyone who would attempt to break any and all evil curses, pacts, spells, seals, hexes, vexes, triggers, trances, vows, demonic blessings, demonic bondages, spiritual influences, soul ties, dedications, consecrations, contracts or promises in the name of the father and of the son + and of the holy spirit. Amen.
