Hello my loved ones. I felt led by the Spirit of God to reiterate an "End Times" prophecy that I believe we see vastly growing today.
As mentioned in the Book of Revelations, Chapter 13 takes place during the tribulation period. We see in verse 7. "And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations." Who is "him?" Him, as described in verse 4 is the beast, in which Satan, (the Dragon) has given power to. We see that the beast has been given power over all nations during this Tribulation period. Another scripture set I'd like to point out is found in verse 16 and 17. "And he (Satan) causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." What this is saying, and we all heard about this growing up, is that this same wicked One, will have power over the revenue and people won't be able to eat or make a living with out the mark (worshiping Satan)
The reason all this sparked up for me was I stumbled across Barack Obama's United Nation's speech he gave a few days ago. It can be found at (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3b7J8JuLj1E) if you'd like to check it out. We know the United Nations was formed after World War 2 to prevent another war like those from happening again. Well intentions one may say! However, the Bible speaks of a "One World Order" as revealed in the Book of Revelations, that the Beast will rule over during the Tribulation period. I'm not saying anyone now is that Adversary, or the time is now..I just want to share how the events occurring in our world today are paving the way for God's word, found in the Bible, to fulfill itself. A few eyebrow raising points I gleamed from listening to Obama's entire speech was first, his constant push of a "Better model" of unity among nations. He stated to "Push going forward with international rules all nations must adhere to." Another note I took from his speech is the World Bank and International Monetary Fund established and how that should be expounded on as well. (Perfect opportunity to regulate spending/commerce)
I don't consider myself extremely superstitious, just take a moment and ponder how what appears to be taking place, is leading to what Daniel visioned in Ch 7 and what Revelations 13 tells us during the Tribulation period..More to come!!
