The IMAGE OF THE BEAST:

I was asked a very good question and I would like to offer some insight on the matter.

What do I think the IMAGE of BEAST would be?

LET me get you thinking for a moment: 

Do you remember the prophecy's of CHRIST? They expected so much grandness to happen. HE was to come out of Bethlehem, born of a virgin, and RULE like a KING.

And it was through their GRAND IDEALS they missed it all together. They from their own PERCEIVED GRAND IDEALS were confused and deceived.

That is kinda the idea I have about the BEAST and the IMAGE.

Do you really believe the enemy has your best interest in mind?

Satan is selfish,  deceiving, and a liar. seeking whom he may devour, to bring to DEATH and Separation from GOD.

 He is not POWERLESS, as in he is able to perform miraculous of his own. But that isn't what he is offering his people. He offers them RULER SHIP of this EARTH, through INFLUENCE and TEMPTATION, and his LIES.

Through his "LIES" and "VANITIES" he separates people from the MOST HIGH.  For it is through his FLATTERIES that he is able to TEMPT them. Dan 11: 32  against the covenant shall he "CORRUPT by FLATTERIES.

HE is not planning on giving them a KINGDOM in the end, for he knows their END is the lake of FIRE. 
REV 12: 12 because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.  


Any power of the miraculous that he GIVES, is all about his gain. He ULTIMATELY is not interested in man, but rather the DISTRUCTION of man, through WORSHIP.  What he did not or could not succeed in stopping CHRIST as the sacrificial lamb, now is he is after man. 

He knows that WHEN MAN succeeds they will take his garments away from him. REV 12: 19 the stones of of NEW JERUSALEM.

___________________________________________________________________  


Luke 1: 51  He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

Dan 12: 7  And I heard the man clothed in linen, which [was] upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that [it shall be] for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these [things] shall be finished

So with that, here are my thoughts on the IMAGE of the BEAST

Many are looking for an IMAGE to be  build that REALLY HAS LIFE IN IT:

SO Let’s start with WHAT the PROPHET does.

  

HE takes a WOUNDED HEAD--- now I think of the wounded head as a KINGDOM, not a man.

So he builds an IMAGE to the WOUNDED HEAD.

What is an IMAGE, exactly?

 Well  if you take the thoughts that we are to be IN THE IMAGE OF CHRIST, then we are to be CONFORMED to the IDEALS of CHRIST in character and behaviorism.

So what KIND of IMAGE do you think the PROPHET would Build?

ONE that promotes and displays his IDEALS and CHARACTER. of lust,  greed, prosperity, vanity etc.

I believe the PROPHET is doing TWO things here.

1. HE is PROCLAIMING his IDEALS to the PEOPLE, and they are getting on BOARD with the IDEAS/bring LIFE to the EMPIRE he wants to build.

This is GIVING LIFE to an IDEAL, by getting the people to BELIEVE in the IDEAL.

2. HE will build an IMAGE, something like the ALL seeing EYE (like lady liberty), like on the DOLLAR that represents his IDEAL'S of what he is presenting.

A Focal point, most likely set up in the CITY/ HARLOT

Now please allow me to express further thought on the matter: 

I believe what he is asking them to do is BUILD an EMPIRE upon those PRINCIPLES and CONCEPTS that he has laid out.

IS is not that I do not believe the PROPHET has POWERS, but MOST of what he uses is the POWER and AUTHORITY that satan himself has over THIS WORLD.

EXAMPLE: .

. "let us build the NWO order with these ideals in mind. One world govenment, one world economic system.. etc".

Eventually he gets the people to come into agreement with him, and that begins the bring the LIFE to the IMAGE/IDEAL.

REV 13: 14  saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

REV 13: 5  And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast/ EMPIRE, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

LIFE:

c) a spirit higher than man but lower than God, i.e. an angel

1) used of demons, or evil spirits, who were conceived as inhabiting the bodies of men

According to scripture:

Wood, stone, IDOLS etc. do not have LIFE in themselves, but can be INHABITED and possessed by demonic forces through Worship..

REV 9: 20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

Personally, I beleive the POWER and AUTHORITY come from the EMPIRE (BEAST) to force the people to take the MARK. IE  enforced by Armies, laws, etc.

For me this was one of the most PROFOUND verses that I thought was REVEALING to that matter.

REV 13: 14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had POWER to DO "IN THE SIGHT OF THE BEAST", saying to them that dwell on the earth........

His miracles were performed ONLY while he was IN THE SIGHT OF THE BEAST.

AGAIN what BEAST, the EMPIRE BEAST. the PROPHET had POWER as long as HE had access to the BEAST EMPIRE.

It is very POSSIBLE that what JOHN saw was WAR MACHINES with fire, coming in from the SKY. And preceived them to be MIRACLES. In his day he had never WITNESS such a things as BOMBS and NUCLEAR weapons.  To HIM they appeared to be MIRACLES.

A few more scriptures to think about:

Psalms 115: 4-8

Their idols [are] silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:

They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:

They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.

They that make them are like unto them; [so is] every one that trusteth in them.

Here are a couple of questions I would like you to ask yourself:

IS a person of today TRULY going to bow down to an IMAGE?

1. Only if he is getting something in RETURN for that submission and humbiness.

 ie PROSPERITY, LUST, VANITY... 

In this CASE the thing the PEOPLE are truly WORSHIPING is the GOODS/idols that they can get from the EMPIRE/ HARLOT.

They are WORSHIPING the DRAGON/SATAN, through the WORSHIP of their DESIRES, LUST, vanity and GREED. etc.

Those that TAKE the MARK are left "DESOLATE" separated from GOD, and the HOLY SPIRIT, JESUS. There is NO ROOM for REPENTANCE. Their HEARTS are COLD. And THEY TOTALLY become SELFISH, MEAN and DEMONICALLY influenced by their FATHER the DEVIL.

THINK OF IT LIKE THIS:

The HARLOT will be a PART of the IMAGE of the BEAST.  The POWER that she will have will be the MARK itself.. FORCED UPON EVERYONE. THOSE that will not take the MARK, will be KILLED by the SWORD/armies, HELD CAPTIVE/ in camps, DIE the death of a MARTYR.

CONCLUSION:

The IMAGE Is the WHOLE IDEAL brought to LIFE:

The IMAGE is the WHOLE IDEAL presented by the PROPHET.. Coming from the IMAGINATIONS of his heart. Brought to LIFE/ by being EMPOWERED by the EMPIRE.  by ALL those that agree to his IDEALS.

Build LIKE a NWO, one economic system and one WORLD government. EMBRACED by the PEOPLE and empowered by the DEMONIC.INFLUENCED ARMIES of the WORLD.

Also, ask yourself today.. IS that NOT what we are seeing today. MANY in our POLITICAL WORLD are promoting a NWO. IT will not be very LONG before ALL will be on BOARD/ bring LIFE with this ideal, through ECONOMIC failure.

Seek ye first the KINGDOM OF GOD

MATT 6: 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

What does it mean to SEEK YE FIRST the KINGDOM OF GOD?

PHIL 1: 6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform [it] until the day of Jesus Christ:

Phil 3: 13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but [this] one thing [I do], forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

Col 3: 2 Set your section on things above, not on things on the earth.

To SEEK HIS KINGDOM is to SEEK the LIFE-STYLE of HIS KINGDOM. We are Born into a NEW KINGDOM through SALVATION, THROUGH the BLOOD OF HIS SON, we have been restored to the garden of Eden. To be able to LIVE in HIS PRESENCE:

We are called to be HOLY—SET APART, different. To have the MIND OF CHRIST.

1 Peter 1: 15But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;

We are to be a LIGHT unto the world

John 8: 12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

We are to bare a record of the word of GOD and the testimony of JESUS CHRIST

Rev 1: 2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.

To surrender and submit our lives in CONFORMITY to HIS COMMANDS

Rev 12: 17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ

John 15: 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

Be a people of forgiveness, longsuffering, joy, peace, and contentment

SEEKING to be CONFORMED into the IMAGE OF HIS SON:

Col 3: 12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;

Col 3: 13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also [do] ye.

Phil 1: 11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

In our actions, a life style of HOLINESS/set apart. LIVING as a LIVING SACRIFICE to HIM.

Romans 12: 1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, [which is] your reasonable service.

To truly LOVE GOD, means to have a great desire to be a PEOPLE that are living a life-style as though we are living under the authority and rule of a RIGHTEOUS LORD and KING:

We are to uphold JUSTICE, RIGHTEOUSNESS, as well as LOVING our neighbor.

To Desire what HE DESIRES, to RESCUE the lost. He does not desire the wicked die in their wickedness.

EZ 18: 23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: [and] not that he should return from his ways, and live?

And out of the ABUNDANCE of the LOVE we have for HIM, we love HIS PEOPLE, and Our desires become HIS DESIRES.

Let us HUMBLE ourselves before HIM, and seek repentance of the things that HINDER our walk, that dims our candles, that we can be a LIGHT unto the world. 

For HE Is WORTHY TO BE PRAISED, as the creator of ALL the universe.

Matt 6: 30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, [shall he] not much more [clothe] you, O ye of little faith.

Matt 6: 31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

MATT 6: 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

A Call to anguish : Let us Travail through the flesh in repentance, that we Desire what
HE desires most from us. LORD set my heart on fire for you!!

EMPTY ME: LORD help me become a KINGDOM MINDED SOUL UNTO YOU!! Laying aside my desires, idols, and vainity. That I will be a LIVINNG SACRIFICE ..............As a testimony to WHO you are and WHAT you have done for me................

TEST the PROPHETS, and check your HEART: by wecrymercy

FALSE PROPHETS:

I for one can tell you, I DO BELIEVE there are TRUE PROPHETS sent by GOD to WARN and to Preach REPENTANCE. I also pray the LORD would send them.

You might ask WHY?  WE are in DIRE NEED for REPENTANCE to be PREACHED. I believe that the LORD does not DESIRE the WICKED to die in their WICKEDNESS, and it would be a MERCIFUL act for HIM to send TRUE PROPHETS, for restoration, and salvation. HIS DESIRE would be MY DESIRE.  EZ 18: 23 EZ  18: 32

For the LIFE of me, I can not understand why so many SEEK to stand in the position of a prophet. The LIFE of the PROPHET is MOST often, AN EXAMPLE of SUFFERING for the CROSS.

IT is not a glamorous life, as so many think and profess.  More often we see the PROPHETS of old, put to death, tormented, lonely and often deprived of any goods. 


The TRUE PROSPERITY of a PROPHET is the FELLOWSHIP of the LORD.
Those that do "DESIRE" that FELLOWSHIP alone will be TRUE PROPHETS indeed.


IT is through GOD'S GLORIOUS MERCY and HIS ANOINTING ALONE, that HE sends a PROPHET, before judgment.

THUS I would cry.. LORD SEND YOUR PROPHETS!!!!

HOWEVER, many that say they are PROPHETS are not PROPHETS. And it is in our BEST INTEREST to be able to TEST the WORDS of a PROPHET:.

Matt 7: 15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Matt 24: 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

Luke 6: 26 Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.

2 Peter 2: 1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

1 john 4: 1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

Lam 2: 14 Thy prophets have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and they have not discovered thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment.

I would like to offer you some insight on testing Prophets:

1. One of the most important signs of a FALSE PROPHET is that he or she will speak from another KINGDOM, promoting things of a WORLDlY KINGDOM/idols rather than a GODLY KINGDOM.

2. They can do SIGNS and WONDERS, satan himself has powers
3. They often will speak well of you, and tell you the “desire”of your heart is coming true
4. They shall bring DAMNABLE heresies, too frequently confirmed by signs and wonders
5. They have seen VAIN and FOOLISH THINGS.

The LORD tells us to TEST these SPIRITS whether they are of GOD.

Is the HOLY SPIRIT at work in the WORDS of these PROPHETS?

or is it a SPIRIT of SELF that is professing the words of a man?

_____________________________________________________________________

Deuteronomy 13: 2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them.

3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams:

“For the LORD your GOD PROVETH you, to know whether ye LOVE the LORD YOUR GOD with all your heart and with all your soul.”

Prophets,  Prophets, everywhere.

By now most of you have had some encounter with a few of those self professing prophets.. Many say they are, but they ARE NOT.

In fact, I am pretty certain that most that I have encountered are SPIRITUALIST or DREAM CATCHERS.

SPIRITUALIST—One who will consistently offer to give you a PROPHETCY, but truly it is more about a READING of your heart and mind, than a prophecy.

EZ 14: 3 Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumbling block of iniquity before their face; should I be inquired of at all by them.

4, ..Every man of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumbling block of his iniquity before his face.. I the LORD will answer him that cometh according to the multitude of his idols.

7. For every one of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that sojourneth in Israel, which separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and puteth the stumbling block of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to a prophet to inquire of him: I the LORD WILL answer him by myself.

And I will set my face against that man..

10 And they shall bear the punishment of their iniquity: the punishment of the prophet shall be even the punishment of him that seeketh unto him.

These SPIRITUALIST are very dangerous to the BODY OF CHRIST. Because they are more often gibing READING/witchcraft  from your hearts and desires or from their own HEART, and DESIRES they are leading many astray. They are NOT TRUTH BEARERS to the BODY.

Hindering growth, and maturity and often will lead people to their IDOLS rather than what is TRUTH from GOD.

DREAM CATCHERS/physic --- These guys desire to know the future so bad, they open themselves up to EVERY possible spirit there is to get it. They can be dangerous, because they cause FEAR and many will MOVE HOME and FAMILY through these prophecy's. Be careful, sometimes they get are able to get some TRUTH, but more often they are having pizza dreams more than anything, making them harmless.

What has the WHEAT/body of Christ have to do with the CHAFF what is unusable?

Jeremiah 23: 28 The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What [is] the chaff to the wheat? saith the LORD.

Jeremiah 23: 30 Therefore, behold, I [am] against the prophets, saith the LORD, that steal my words every one from his neighbour

Jeremiah 23: 31 Behold, I [am] against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the LORD, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the LORD

The GATHERING of the PROPHETS:

These gatherings of prophets,  often “Conspire” with one another to confirm the “meaning” of a dream. Leading others to believe that by their NUMBERS it is confirmed as truth.

_____________________________________________________________________

Do YOU love GOD with all your heart and soul or have you found yourself running TO and FRO looking for a prophet?

Well trust this.. YOU WILL BE TESTED and TRIED to see if that is so. Deu. 13: 3 tells us that GOD will prove us on such matters.

Check your heart:

Do you find yourself SEEKING out every PROPHET?  SEEKING to Receive instruction or guidance from someone else?

THEN REPENT of that NOW!!! Choose today to SEEK the LORD and HIS VOICE.

The LORD’S door is not closed to you or I.  With all your MIGHT, seek to HEAR HIS voice with all your HEART and SOUL. IF the LORD desires to send a PROPHET to you TRUST that HE will do so.  

TEST THEM:

What KINGDOM are they speaking from?

ARE they speaking from a heart of RIGHTEOUSNESS or of VANITY?

ARE they seeking REWARD, profit, vanity, idols?

A WORD the LORD sends is CONFIRMED by the HOLY SPIRIT

Brings change to your heart, holiness, righteousness, rebuke, conformity to Christ, and sometimes WARNING to our lives. A WORD from the LORD, will reveal HIDDEN things of the heart, that are UNRIGHTEOUS, UNHOLY, vanity, pride, idols. etc.

Jeremiah 23: 29 [Is] not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer [that] breaketh the rock in pieces?

I pray the LORD will SEND TRUE PROPHETS at a time, such as this. 

WE NEED TRUE PROPHETS to preach REPENTANCE and RESTORATION. The TRUE message of SALVATION.

The Aim of Financiers:

Thought this article was very interesting. Is all of it TRUTH?  I do not know:

How much the POPE is involved in this?  I still do not know the answer to that. Though this person just slips in a comment from time to time about the POPE. They don't seem produce ANY prove to their believe.
I will simply leave it at that.

What I do believe personally, is it has been an idea sense the time of BABEL, a unified decision and  that the MASON"S (33rd degree, theLuciferian ) are involved in the making of the ONE WORLD CURRENCY to control mankind.

The Aim of Financiers

a few quotes from the article.

LINK: :http://www.biblebelievers.org.au/theaim.htm;
More at link.

To consolidate their power, the Financiers also want to eliminate every existing national currency, and to install a one-world currency.  In the 1970s, Dr. Hanrick Eldeman, Chief Analyst of the Common Market Confederacy in Brussels, unveiled a plan to "straighten out world chaos": a three-story computer located in the administrative building of the headquarters of the Common Market, in Brussels, Belgium.  People who work there call it "the Beast".  The plan implies a system of digital enumeration of each human being on earth.  Thus the computer would give each inhabitant of the world a number to be used for each purchase or sale.  This number would be invisibly tattooed by laser (or implanted with a microchip) either on the forehead or on the back of the hand. This would establish a walking credit card system.

And the number could be seen only through infrared scanners, installed in special verification countries or in business places. Dr. Eldeman pointed out that by using three entries of six digits each, every inhabitant of the world would be given a distinct credit card number.

This reminds us strangely of what Saint John the Apostle wrote in the Book of Revelation (13:16-18): "And he (the Beast) shall make all, both little and great, rich and poor, freemen and slaves, to receive a mark on their right hands, or on their foreheads, and that none might buy or sell, unless he carried this mark, which was the beast's name, or the number that stands for his name.  Here is wisdom; he that has understanding, let him count the number of the beast.  For it is the number of a man: and the number of him is six hundred and sixty-six".

A WORD from Jeremiah: Stand in the ways, and see, asd ask for the old path, do not refuse to walk

Jeremiah 5: 1 Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be [any] that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it.

Jeremiah 5: 3 O LORD, [are] not thine eyes upon the truth? thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, [but] they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.

Jeremiah 5: 7 How shall I pardon thee for this? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by [them that are] no gods: when I had fed them to the full, they then committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the harlots' houses.

Jeremiah 5: 23 But this people hath a revolting and a rebellious heart; they are revolted and gone.

Jeremiah 5: 24 Neither say they in their heart, Let us now fear the LORD our God, that giveth rain, both the former and the latter, in his season: he reserveth unto us the appointed weeks of the harvest.

Jeremiah 5: 25 Your iniquities have turned away these [things], and your sins have withholden good [things] from you.

Jeremiah 6: 13  For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them every one [is] given to covetousness; and from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely.

Jeremiah 6: 14 They have healed also the hurt [of the daughter] of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when [there is] no peace.

Jeremiah 6: 15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time [that] I visit them they shall be cast down, saith the LORD.

JEREMIAH 6: 16 Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where [is] the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk [therein].

Jeremaih 6: 17 Also I set watchmen over you, [saying], Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken.

Jeremaih 6: 18 Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what [is] among them.

Jeremiah 6: 19 Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, [even] the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it

GOD's POWERFUL ARMY -by David Wilkerson.

GOD's POWERFUL ARMY
-by David Wilkerson.
Something very powerful and awesome is going on in the world today
-something beyond human comprehension-something that will
affect the whole world in these last days.

God is preparing a small but powerful army of Christians, the most
dedicated army on the face of the earth. The Lord will come forth to
command them to do exploits; He is going to close out the ages
with a pure, devoted, fearless remnant.

All my life I have heard stories about our godly forefathers who
hated sin. These men and women knew God's voice and spent
hours, even days, in fasting and prayer. They prayed unceasingly
and had the power and ability to successfully stand up against
immorality in their day.

These forefathers have long since passed on. But God is in the
process of raising up another army and this time His warriors will
not be made up only of elderly, gray-haired fathers and mothers of
Zion. This new army will be composed of both new and seasoned
believers, both young and old, ordinary Christians who lay hold of
God! A whole new realm of ministry is about to come forth!

The denominational church system appears to be in the throes of
death. It has almost no influence in the secular world, no mighty
power in Christ. Some accuse me of being "hard" on pastors. But I
am in touch with many godly pastors who grieve as I do over the
backsliding in the ministry today. There is a holy remnant of godly
pastors in the land, and I thank God for every one of them. Yet, it
is still a fact that more and more ministers are racing down the
road of compromise.

The Bible warns that we are not to fret! God has a plan and it is
being manifested. It is put forth plainly in Scripture, mostly in the
first four chapters of First Samuel.

The prophet Samuel is a type of God's last-days remnant. The
Lord chose him amid the worst of times and hid him away in
training until it was time to bring forth His new thing. God told
Samuel, "Behold, I will do something in Israel at which both ears
of everyone who hears it will tingle" (1 Samuel 3:11). What would
so amaze and startle all who heard it? It was the judgment of God
on the backslidden religious system and the raising up, training
and anointing of a new, holy remnant!

What God did in Samuel's day, He does in every generation.
Indeed, in every generation there has been a remnant, a praying
people after His own heart.

BIRTH OF the LAST-DAYS REMNANT

The prophet Samuel is a type of the last-days holy remnant-a
prepared body of believers that rises out of the ruins of the old,
decadent church.

Hannah, Samuel's mother, birthed her son through bitter tears and
much prayer. "And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to the
Lord and wept in anguish" (1 Samuel 1:10).

Try to imagine the scene: Hannah was at the temple every day, on
her knees before the altar, crushed and broken because she was
childless. As she wept, her adversary-her husband's other wife-
made fun of her. "And her rival also provoked her severely, to make
her miserable, because the Lord had closed her womb" (1 Samuel 1:6).

There are three important things I want to point out from this passage:

    * First, the remnant that Samuel represents is born in grief and
intercession.
    * Second, those who pray and grieve after God's heart will be
provoked by adversaries.
    * And third, God's remnant is always going to be misunderstood!

Note what happened to Hannah as she prayed: "And it happened,
as she continued praying before the Lord, that Eli watched her
mouth. Now Hannah spoke in her heart; only her lips moved, but
her voice was not heard. Therefore Eli thought she was drunk. So
Eli said to her, 'How long will you be drunk? Put your wine away
from you!'" (1 Samuel 1:12-14). Eli and his sons represent the
dying, corrupt church that has forsaken the Lord's way. Eli was so
out of touch-so dead in his spirit-he thought Hannah was drunk!

When Hannah was praying, she was filled with grief, burdened for
the birth of a son. All she could do was move her lips because of
her groaning in the Spirit. She prayed, "If You will indeed look on
the affliction of Your maidservant and remember me, and . . . will
give Your maidservant a male child, then I will give him to the Lord
all the days of his life" (1 Samuel 1:11).

Here are two distinguishing marks of God's holy remnant:

    * They pray like Hannah. Their burden is deep and their heart is
stirred because of the wickedness in God's house.
    * Like Hannah, they give themselves to prayer every day of their lives.

God wants to make you like that. He wants you to be able to touch
Him and hear from Him. He wants to give you a ministry to others
who will come to you with their burdens and trials. And as you pray
for them, His Word will come forth!

Do I believe this?

Absolutely, What I do not believe is the purpose is to FULFILL a DOMINION THEOGY. But rather a ONENESS in the BODY OF CHRIST, and for the PURPOSE of SALVATION.

a LITMUS TEST of WHO the HARLOT can be

Here is an idea that came to me.. : )

I am giving this to ALL of  you as a bit of a LITMUS test on the HARLOT. 

It is my Understanding that MOST do not understand the POWER and AUTHORITY the HARLOT has in the end times. SHE IS AN INSTRUMENT OF THE DRAGON/SATAN.

Please check back from time to time as I may ADD to this TEST.

1 Thess 5: 20 do not treat prophecies with contempt. 

1 Thess 5: 21  Test everything. Hold on to the good. 

How do we TEST all things, through scripture. The HARLOT must FULFILL the TEST of the scriptures in order to FULFILL the PROPHECY.

So do not be persuaded outside of TRUTH.

Thanks donna

Psalms 2: 1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

Psalms 2: 2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, [saying],

Psalm 2: 3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

Here is a basic TEST of Who can fulfill the ROLE Of the HARLOT:

1. She is an ECONOMIC entity:

Rev 18: 7-13 HER merchandise is so VAST, it can not be found in ONE COUNTRY, but most LIKELY a KINGDOM/ CITY with a WORLD TRADE CENTER in it.

Rev 18: 14 And the fruits that thy soul Lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.

Rev 18: 15 The MERCHANTS of these things, which were made “RICH” by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing.

Vs 17 For in ONE HOUR so great RICHES is come to nought.

2. She is a CITY of great influence, she even reigns over NATIONS.

Rev 18: 16 And saying, Alas, alas, that GREAT CITY, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones and pearls.

Rev 17: 15 And he saith unto me, the WATERS which thou sawest, where the WHORE sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and NATIONS, and tongues.

3. She is not ONLY the MOTHER of ALL HARLOTS but she is also responsible as THE MOTHER OF ALL ABOMINATION:

REV 17: 2 With whom the KINGS of the earth committed fornication and the INHABITANTS of the EARTH have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

4. She “REIGNS” ie makes SLAVES of the KINGS of the EARTH.

Rev 17: 18 And the WOMAN which thou sawest is THAT GREAT CITY, which REIGNETH OVER the KINGS of the earth

5. She is RESPONSIBLE for the DEATH and MARTYRS of the SAINTS

REV 17: 6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the MARTYRS of JESUS, ….

Now through REVELATION of a VISION, and through the WORD OF GOD.

a. I have concluded she is the CITY, within a KINGDOM,  in which the IMAGE is placed. A city that must contain a WORLD TRADE CENTER

Rev 13: 14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast: saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the WOUND BY A SWORD, and did live.

b. She is the ECONOMIC ENTITY that controns/inforces the MARK of the BEAST. The INSTRUMENT OF the DRAGON in which to CONTROL his mark. Through the power of the KINGS, vainity, desire, and need.

Rev 13: 16 And he causth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or their foreheads.

HERE Is a question for you: 

1. WHO CONTROLS The MARKET???

THE HARLOT

2. Who will have the POWER and AUTHORITY of the EARTH and the DRAGON behind them to ENFORCE the MARK? The LITTLE HORN, he will do use his instrument the HARLOT in order to do this..

c. IN THE BEGINNING, She is not ruled by ONE KING, but is build through the PROPHET, and AGREED upon by “the minds of MANY KINGS” with ONE PURPOSE under the DRAGONS RULE. Though EVENTUALLY ONE KING will RISE out of the TEN and be the LITTLE HORN.

Dan 7: 24 And the TEN HORNS out of this KINGDOM are ten KINGS that shall arise, and another shall RISE AFTER them, and he shall be DIVERSE from the first, and he shall subdue three.

Dan 8: 24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practice/accomplish and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
