Revelation 14:12   Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

13 Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, “Write: ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.’ ”

“Yes,” says the Spirit, “that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow them.”

My Beloved wife has been hearing the word “patience” from FATHER over the last several days and I believe we are now in a time of testing.  This time of testing may only be for our family which is okay, but yet it could be on a broader basis.  You in your spirit will know if it applies to you as well.  Patience is intended to bring forth growth and maturity:

James 1:2  My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials,

3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.

4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.

Don’t we all want to be perfected and complete?  Be patient and know FATHER has our best interest at heart!  Our Heavenly Father is the Author and Originator of Love.  If there is anyone who Loves you, it is FATHER.  No one else could ever hope to Love you as much as HIM.  Every trial you enter into is designed to bring you into greater maturity in order that you will walk in the perfection of your calling and purpose.  Your purpose is a result of HIS purpose or Divine Intent of Love:

Romans 8:28  And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.

30 Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.

There is a hurting and suffering world out there.  The “end game” is not glorification but instead it is bringing forth life and restoration by HIS Love.  If you simply want to be glorified, then you are missing the intent of Love.  Glorification is for service to mankind, not to be some sign of entitlement or exaltation.

“Those who keep the commandments” are those who walk in and have a revelation of Love.  When you fully understand the Love of FATHER and Jesus Christ, you have faith in HIS Intent, power, and authority over any situation that presents itself.  As Paul continued in Romans 8:

38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come,

39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The “Faith” movement in the 1970’s and 1980’s was missing one critical ingredient- Love.  With very few exceptions, Love was never at the forefront of the faith teachers’ message.  Faith was the primary message and at best Love was in the secondary list.  This is why those ministries missed the mark for they only needed to read the thirteenth chapter of 1 Corinthians to get it straight but it was not in FATHER’s Plan for that time.

Galatians 5:6   For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love.

Love must be present for faith to fully operate properly.  We must fully trust in FATHER WHO Loves us to bring forth the manifestation of what is needed in our walk with HIM.  We then truly know all things work together in our life.  The Faith Teacher Kenneth Hagin’s foundational Scripture he preached on is found in Mark 11:

22   So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God.

23   For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.

24   Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

Possibly without exception, he included the above Scripture every time he preached or wrote a book.  This passage had great personal meaning to him in his early life.  But I say to you, how can have faith in GOD if you don’t have a revelation of how much HE Loves you?  Focus on HIS Love and when you finally come to the realization of how great HIS Love is for you, your faith will increase to “great” faith.  You will totally rely on HIM to meet your every need, knowing that HE has your best interest at heart.  You will become patient for you know that the timing of manifestation is well in hand… HIS hand, not yours.

The Day of Judgment appears to be at hand.  The current system is hanging on by a thread and there are many indications that global events affecting all of mankind are around the corner.  These writings are intended to prepare us by focusing on the revelation of Love.  Faith works by Love, patience is perfected by Love, and hope is a result of Love.  Faith is a result of Love, not the opposite.  As we are perfected and matured, we will walk in Love in the midst of the judgment in its full strength coming forth.  Our faith will be strong as a result of Love being perfected in us and fear will not be found among us:

1 John 4:17   Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.

18   There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.

19   We love Him because He first loved us.

Fear will be widespread among those who dwell in the earth and in the sea of humanity.  But those who walk in Love, patience, and faith will be the ones who the rest of humanity look to for the solution to the judgment which has come in its fullness.

Blessed are those who die to their ego or flesh.  They will no longer strive in the flesh or in their labor but instead they will rest in FATHER’S Love.  Their fruit will follow them and reflect this rest.  When you only do what you hear from FATHER, you can truly be at rest.

Revelation 14:9  Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand,

10 he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

11 And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”

The above passage evokes fear in those who do not see that Our Heavenly Father’s Divine Intent is Love.  Instead they see HIM as some vengeful dictator who will wipe out those who fail to follow HIM.  Wrong!  We must set aside this soulish thinking and view this passage from the eyes of Love.

Those with the “mark” of the beast are those who follow and adhere to the worldly, religious system of Mystery Babylon.  They worship the beast system by their thoughts and/or their actions.  Some sit in pews each week thinking that their customs are sufficient to get them to Heaven.  Others write checks to support their local dominations thinking they can buy their way through the pearly gates.  Some believe in other religions and worship manmade idols.

Divine fire and brimstone is for purification and the ego will be tormented has it is being dealt with.  The word “torment’’” means to suffer, or suffering.  Yes, the ego will suffer as it dies.  The mind will suffer as it loses control to your spirit and once again becomes a willing servant.  It was necessary for Jesus to suffer on the Cross as His body was brought into full subjection:

Matthew 16:21   From that time Jesus began to show to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day.

Aren’t you glad and relieved that Jesus was willing to suffer for all of mankind?  Suffering provides for a transition from one state to another and the Divine fire and brimstone are called forth as the purifying agents to catalyze the transition.

Removal of anything that has been embedded can produce some type of suffering.  The child suffers as you extract a thorn underneath the skin.  However, the other side of suffering will bring forth eternal life and purity thus the suffering is necessary for Love to be fully expressed in our lives.

This word “wrath” is also translated as anger in the following passage in Mark chapter 3:

3 And He said to the man who had the withered hand, “Step forward.”

4 Then He said to them, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they kept silent.

5 And when He had looked around at them with anger, being grieved by the hardness of their hearts, He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored as whole as the other.

6 Then the Pharisees went out and immediately plotted with the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him.

When we no longer apply a soulish view to righteous anger and wrath, we can see the result is restoration, not destruction.  The matured Sons are called forth to the healing and restoration of mankind, not death and destruction.  If you really trust Our Heavenly Father to be fully motivated by HIS Love for us, you can see that any action will be for our good.  HIS ways are higher than our ways and HIS Intent is always out of Love for HIS creation.  When pondering the Revelation of Our Lord Jesus Christ given to His beloved disciple John, we must always view this book from the eyes of Love and purity.  Any other view will cause you to stumble.  A pure heart will see HIS Love for us and will reveal the mysteries found in this Fifth Gospel.  Any other heart produces blindness and defilement:

Titus 1:15  To the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience are defiled.

16 They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work.

Let this third proclamation come forth and in full strength!

Revelation 14:8   And another angel followed, saying, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.”

Among the Sons of FATHER, the wine (incorruptible life) and oil (anointing) represent the third Holy Feast of Tabernacles.  Back n Revelation 6:5-6, the rider of the black horse was not to hurt not the oil and the wine.  In the above passage, Babylon’s wine is one of full corruption which leads toward death.  It’s blood is a counterfeit to Christ’s blood representing life.  FATHER’S Divine Intent of Love places great importance on the blood which is represented by wine in the feast.  Babylon has attempted to replace this life with its own “wine” based on man’s soulish and fleshly view of life.  Mankind has attempted to extend life by technology, genetic mutation, and other means as an alternative to the CREATOR’S Plan for eternal life.  Nations have signed up for Babylon’s convincing path of scarcity requiring the masses to drink of her wine.

Babylon is described as a whore, one who has illicit relations in an attempt to become one and in unity with a man.  Under false pretense does the whore present herself to mankind.  She is fully corrupted in her intent and desires to focus mankind on her promise of pleasure and fulfillment only to bring forth death and destruction.  Babylon is counterfeit to the Bride of Christ.  A counterfeit presents itself with half-truths in order to convince us that it could be the real thing.  A counterfeit may look and act as the genuine bride, but her ways lead to death and destruction.  In Matthew chapter 24, Jesus warns us:

21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.

22 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.

23 “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it.

24 For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

25 See, I have told you beforehand.

We must not let our Love grow cold!  We must not be dismayed but let patience have its perfect work.  Babylon will fall soon and its fall will be great.  No man knows the day or the hour but those of us who focus on Our Heavenly Father’s Love and fellowship will not be taken by surprise when that day occurs.  We are assured that HIS Love for us will protect us from the fallout of Babylon’s demise.  We will not be in crisis mode as those who placed their trust and loyalty in the great whore.

Babylon is described as a “great city”.  It will be replaced by the New Jerusalem, a great everlasting city.  First the counterfeit, then the real.  First the false christs and false prophets speaking lies in lust, then Christ represented by the Sons who will come forth and speak Truth in Love.  In the day we live in now, it is difficult to discern the truth coming forth in the news.  The hidden agendas of those in power spew forth lies in order to manipulate the masses to move in the direction of death and destruction.  The sheep are being led to slaughter.  The Love of FATHER will bring forth HIS wrath against this corruption.

The anointing of the Sons of FATHER will be sufficient to reveal the death and destructive path promoted by Mystery Babylon.  The Sons will bust apart the misconceptions which are now believed to be truth.  Once the standard of Truth is raised, all will be judged accordingly.  Once true Love arrives on the scene, the whore will be exposed for what and who she is.

When Joshua was preparing to enter the Promised Land, he was to enter in with courage.  Be assured when Babylon falls, fear will spread among those who have relied on Babylon’s infrastructure.  We are to “fear not” as this time arrives.  How do you prepare?  Seek the revelation of Love.  Why?  John, the Beloved disciple and writer of the Book of Revelation wrote:

1 John 4:18   There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.

As we pursue this full revelation of Love, we must be patient:

James 1:. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.

FATHER Loves us and that is the reality.  As we embrace HIS Love and Divine Intent, we will truly have faith IN HIM and we will be perfect, lacking nothing when the day arrives of Babylon’s fall.  We will be the ones rejoicing while others will be in great fear.  They will then look to us for answers as the power and anointing will be there to minister life and restoration to all mankind.

Revelation 14:6   Then I saw another angel flying in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth—to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people—

7   saying with a loud voice, “Fear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has come; and worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water.”

The progression of the Plan is now ready for manifestation on the earth.  The Sons have been prepared and matured unto perfection in Love and Truth.  They have now heard and embraced the new song of Tabernacles and have been made ready for ministry of service to all mankind.  They have been given the everlasting Gospel of good news- the reconciliation of all mankind.  Notice that no man, woman, or child is left behind.  Every nation, tribe, tongue, and people includes ALL of mankind.

This messenger is proclaiming the message with a loud voice so that there is no question of what men are hearing.  No one can claim they have not heard this Gospel.  Until now men could claim ignorance, but the day is coming when they will be confronted with the standard of Love and Truth.

“Fear GOD and give glory to HIM” is the command.  As Psalm 111:10 states:

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom;
A good understanding have all those who do His commandments.
His praise endures forever.

Proverbs 1:7 states:

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge,
But fools despise wisdom and instruction.

And Proverbs 9:10

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom,
And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

To “fear GOD” is to receive wisdom, understanding, and knowledge.  Without this reverence for HIS Majesty, power, and authority, man’s life will be shortened.  As we submit completely to HIM in reverence, our days are lengthened to the point of eternity, we are fully restored.  How simple!

“The hour of HIS judgment has come” tells us the Sons have  been given their mission.  Righteous judgment will now fill the earth and no man will be able to hide from the light of HIS Word for all.  The prophetic Lord’s Prayer is now to be fully manifested on earth by bringing Heaven to earth.  The earth’s alternative political, economic, and religious systems are now to be replaced with FATHER’S Kingdom.  All of the misperceptions of value are ready to come tumbling down.  Fiat currencies will lose all their value as men have finally come to the Truth of the lies backing the financial system.  They will be unable to resist the Truth and were warned by Paul of the impending judgment as he wrote in Romans chapter 1:

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.

20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,

21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

22 Professing to be wise, they became fools,

23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

Every temporal thing that has had man’s focus is getting ready to be cast down in some form or fashion for judgment is now at hand.  This judgment is not punitive in nature but instead is corrective.  Yes there will be pain just as a wound must have the infection removed before it can completely heal.  Men will see the futility of their past priorities and will have tremendous regret.  As all eyes are opened to the Love and Truth, men will lay down their weapons and become truly productive again.  Resources will be to further mankind rather than destroy them.  Families will reunite and minister Love and life to one another.  “Self” will be removed from their vocabulary and replaced with acts of Love.  The Hour has come!

Revelation 14:4   These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These were redeemed from among men, being firstfruits to God and to the Lamb.

5  And in their mouth was found no deceit, for they are without fault before the throne of God.

Man’s ego would attempt to apply the above passage to male’s only thus removing the role of women.  We must set aside such soulish thinking and consider that we all have both masculine and feminine aspects within us.  Paul spoke of the Sons in the following manner:

Galatians 3:26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

29 And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Additionally, we all started out impure and only by the fiery Word are we made pure and Holy.  This purification removes any deceit that had been resident in us beforehand.  As we become pure, we are able to walk without fault and  Paul urges us to press on and walk accordingly in Philippians 2:

14 Do all things without complaining and disputing,

15 that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,

16 holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christ that I have not run in vain or labored in vain.

We must see beyond the flesh and quit belittling those of the other sex.  Each of us has a specific piece to the puzzle and we are all needed in order for the picture to be complete.  We need to honor the ministry of others and know that they have something to add whether tangible or intangible.  Their calling may be to encourage others when they are in dire need of a kind word.  They may be called to comfort the little ones as they are maturing.  Whatever their calling, do not hinder or belittle them.  Do not use control and/or manipulation to move their focus away from their purpose in order to stroke your ego as though you are the only one with a need.  It is time to quit exalting yourself as the center of attention and focus others on Jesus Christ.  Let Him be seen in you rather than your ego being expressed in a self-serving manner.  No longer be defiled by your ego, put it to death.

Another sticking point in this passage is that of being a virgin and once again we must not apply the physical to the Spiritual.  Paul explains what it means to be a virgin in the second letter of Corinthians in chapter 11:

1 Oh, that you would bear with me in a little folly—and indeed you do bear with me.

2 For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

3 But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

Is your mind being corrupted with the complexities of craftiness of men?  Men bring forth unending formulas that must be followed in order to attain to some “out of reach” Christ-likeness.  They consistently bombard us with details, knowledge, information, and opinions of how to become like Christ yet there is a simplicity that Paul reveals.  The ego would like to place itself as the key to becoming a chaste virgin.  The mind will never attain to that spotless condition and the complexities it generates serve only to delay a revelation.  We must quit pursuing some complex formula in order to become a mature Son.  If we simply pursue FATHER’S presence in our life and listen for HIS instruction, we will walk according to HIS Spirit and receive the appropriate revelations.  Paul further explains in Ephesians chapter 4:

17 This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind,

18 having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart;

19 who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to lewdness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

20 But you have not so learned Christ,

21 if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus:

22 that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts,

23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind,

24 and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.

What great news!  We can put away former conduct and corruption and be renewed as chaste virgins thus we can qualify to be among those written of in Revelation 14:4-5.  We are no longer deceived by the serpent who is now become a great beast who walks the earth and is now deceiving nations.  We are not moved by the perversions and deceptions spewing forth out of the current world system.  Our mind is being transformed to the Mind of Christ and we now see the simplicity of Christ in our lives.  We can dwell IN HIM as we walk among men. 

We are no longer afraid of death but are now assured in our walk.  We have such anticipation for the new song coming forth in our spirits to express the Love and the gratitude for HIS plan, will, and purpose in our lives.  The dearth is no longer affecting us as we are drinking from the water of the Living Word.  Those who would distract us no longer have any power to do so.  Our focus is in the third Heaven and we now have the revelation and assurance of being a chaste virgin prepared to be one with Christ.  No fault or deception will be found among us and we have been redeemed among men!

Revelation 14:3 They sang as it were a new song before the throne, before the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who were redeemed from the earth.

Back in Revelation 5:9, the four living creatures around the Throne were singing a new song.  Now the choir has expanded to include the elders and the 144,000.  You may recall that I wrote of this third song representing the song of Tabernacles, the final deliverance of the old nature.  There were two songs mentioned concerning Moses: one of deliverance from Egypt (Exodus 15) and at the end of his life before the children were to enter the Promised Land (Deuteronomy 32).  This third song is now being sung by a greater contingent in Heaven.

It is an interesting reality how a song can carry a message and is easily learned by those who hear it.  When you combine words with a melody, you are wired to remember it.  The masses are able to sing along with the artist at sporting events and other gatherings.  Have you ever noticed that a certain song when heard will “stick” with you all day long?  What do you think would happen when a new song from Heaven is sung in your presence?  It becomes a part of you as well.  It is burned into your consciousness.

“FATHER, we long to hear this new song, open our hearts and ears to hear!”

Revelation 5:8 Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.  9  And they sang a new song, saying:

​​​“You are worthy to take the scroll,

​​And to open its seals;

​​For You were slain,

​​And have redeemed us to God by Your blood

​​Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,

10 ​​And have made us kings and priests to our God;

​​And we shall reign on the earth.”

These 144,000 were redeemed from the “earth”.  At a personal level, the earth represents the soulish realm.  Those who operate in this realm eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and thus they judge other people according to their own perception of things.  The 144,000 have left this realm and have entered the Heavenly realm and eat from the tree of life with its healing leaves.  They are awaiting orders to begin the deliverance and harvest of mankind.  The objective of ruling and reigning is not one of self interest but instead of bring forth the Divine Intent of Love to all of mankind.  In this Our Heavenly Father is glorified.  These kings and priests are to minister service to mankind in a righteous manner unlike the worldly counterparts who have sought to enslave the masses.

Isaiah 42:9 ​​Behold, the former things have come to pass,

​​And new things I declare;

​​Before they spring forth I tell you of them.”

10  ​​Sing to the LORD a new song,

​​And His praise from the ends of the earth,

​​You who go down to the sea, and all that is in it,

​​You coastlands and you inhabitants of them!

11   ​​Let the wilderness and its cities lift up their voice,

​​The villages that Kedar (darkness: sea) inhabits.

​​Let the inhabitants of Sela (Jehovah’s rock: earth) sing,

​​Let them shout from the top of the mountains.

12   ​​Let them give glory to the LORD,

​​And declare His praise in the coastlands.

13   ​​The LORD shall go forth like a mighty man;

​​He shall stir up His zeal like a man of war.

​​He shall cry out, yes, shout aloud;

​​He shall prevail against His enemies.

Be assured that the inhabitants of the earth will soon learn this new song as The Lamb and His army go forth into all the land to reclaim, redeem, and return it to a state where all will proclaim the Kingdom has come.  The praise and joy this new song brings to those who surround the Throne will soon be sung by the inhabitants of the earth and sea.  This song is the song of reconciliation of all mankind and will contain the gratitude and praises for the beauty of the Plan which will soon unfold before the eyes of all of creation.  Prepare to sing!

Revelation 14:2   And I heard a voice from heaven, like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of loud thunder. And I heard the sound of harpists playing their harps.

A harp is an instrument of praise.  King David played the harp as he went through his darkest times.  Praise to Our Heavenly Father encourages our soul.  The mind would have you believe that certain destruction is at hand but Our Heavenly Father is able to do above and beyond anything we ask and is able to deliver us out of any situation. 

In the above verse, Our Heavenly Father speaks and HIS Voice is described by “many waters” and loud thunder.  Psalm 29, David is giving praise to God in His Holiness and Majesty and describes HIS Voice:

3 ​​The voice of the LORD is over the waters;

​​The God of glory thunders;

​​The LORD is over many waters.

4 ​​The voice of the LORD is powerful;

​​The voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

The 144,000 are in awe of FATHER’S plan and now that the maturing process is completed and they are prepared to carry out their individual callings on a collective basis, the gratitude is immense and praise pours out in Heaven as the harpists play their harps.  As the mysteries unfold before their very eyes and ears, the Wisdom is overpowering.  Only now is the plan fully appreciated by those who submitted to HIS call for HIS Love drew them into full submission. Further, they had no need for a full explanation of the plan for they fully trusted IN HIM to bring forth a blessed end to the suffering of mankind.

I have played guitar for over 50 years.  Your ears become sensitive to perfect pitch and you can easily detect when a guitar is out of tune.  The unique vibration of each string correlates to the other strings in perfect harmony.  Each of the six strings is unique and is not exactly like the other strings.  Each has its own function and is in unity with the others.  When properly tuned with each other, they create a beautiful chord.  When one string is slightly out of tune, there is discord.  When a group of musicians are playing together, the out of tune string is easily detected.  Each string vibrates to create sound and those vibrations are complementary to the vibrations of the other strings.  We too must come in tune with FATHER so that we become a beautiful song of praise.  Only after we come in unity and in perfection do we minister peace and tranquility.  Consider the magnificence of the new song in Heaven as the 144,000 are in total unity with The Lamb and FATHER.

Our Heavenly Father’s Voice is discernable to every tongue on earth and HIS Voice is described as “many waters” here as it is in Ezekiel’s vision:

Ezekiel 43:2   And behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east. His voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shone with His glory.

“Many waters” are the voices of unity of the Sons who speak only what they hear from Our Heavenly Father.  In Heaven, all are in unity and one accord thus the many voices bespeak of the many tongues found throughout creation who have come together.  The Sons are standing on Mt. Zion, the highest place of authority with The Lamb.  The Sons have now been glorified with Him.  Paul states in Romans 8:

16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,

17 and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.

Thunder denotes power and the power has now been given to the Sons who have become fully mature and understand its proper use.  So we now have a scene of authority (standing on Mt. Zion) and power (voice of loud thunder) being attributed to the mature Sons.  We will soon see the overcoming of strongholds of both the earth-dwellers and the tumultuous sea of humanity.  Before that takes place, the Sons are standing in awe of the majesty of FATHER and HIS beauty of Holiness.  The harps are in tune and have become a seamless expression of praise.  Heaven rejoices!

Revelation 14:1  Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father’s name written on their foreheads.

In contrast to those who have accepted the “mind of religion” John is presented with those who have put on the Mind of Christ- the 144,000 saints.  Instead of the mark of the beast on their forehead, they have FATHER’S Name written on them and they walk in HIS Wisdom.  Paul states in 1 Corinthians chapter 2:

6 However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.

7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory,

As mentioned before, mysteries are revealed only to the initiated and are closely guarded by FATHER and HIS Spirit so as not to be abused or misused by those who walk according to the flesh.  We now see the Lamb standing with the mature Sons who represent the firstfruits of creation.  They are now fully mature and have established themselves through trials and testings.  They are not tossed to and fro by men’s doctrines but walk in peace even as the sea of humanity is in turmoil.  They are not moved by the circumstances around them and have fully submitted to FATHER’S Plan, Will, and Purpose.  They understand their riches are in Heaven and seek not the temporal.  They have put on the Mind of Christ and taken on FATHER’S Identity.  Paul continues in 1 Corinthians 2:

9 But as it is written:

​​​“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,

​​Nor have entered into the heart of man

​​The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

​10 But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

11 For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.

12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.

The Sons truly Love Our Heavenly Father without exception.  They have no interest in the emptiness of man’s religion and are not moved by the showmanship and charisma displayed by the religious leaders.  They have put away the childish things and have pursued the deeper things of FATHER.  As Paul wrote in Romans 13:

12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.

13 Let us walk properly, as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy.

14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.

The Sons HAVE put on the Lord Jesus Christ and are now with Him on Mount Zion.  The Law of Love is now on their foreheads and their right hands display acts of Love thus this Love is both in word and deed.  They are now fully motivated by the revelation of Love to minister unto all on behalf of Our Heavenly Father.  Acts and words motivated by any other intent do not qualify as part of this walk.  Jesus made it abundantly clear in Matthew chapter 7:

21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.

22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’

23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

The 144,000 with Christ have overcome the mark of the beast.  They have overcome the sea of humanity and the earth-bound religions.  They have given up the “mark” of the beast in both their thinking and their actions.  They no longer support man’s thinking but have put on the Mind of Christ in their words and deeds.  They do Love all who remain in those lower orders but are not sucked into the quagmire with them but are able to rise above the turmoil others live in.  The presence of the Sons will bring peace to the surrounding environment and those who are in their midst will detect a change when they arrive on the scene.  The Sons know that the temporal is subject to change as the Divine Intent of FATHER prevails in each and every situation.  The created must submit to the CREATOR.

The 144,000 are now fully matured and ready for their mission.  The proclamations from Heaven are now at hand and the bowls of judgment are ready to be poured out on all flesh.  Now is the time!

Revelation 13:16   He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads,

17   and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18   Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.

If there has been any passage to invoke fear among the masses, the above Scripture is near the top of the list- the mark of the beast.  Many have drawn conclusions that a one world government would be set up and people would receive a tattoo with a unique barcode.  But wait, new technology has now produced a computer chip injected under the skin that would be better!  As new tracking technology improves, the story gets modified.  I guess those prophets heralding the barcode method need to be dealt with appropriately.

“Come up hither” was the word to John and thus he was seeing in the Spiritual realm throughout this Fifth Gospel.  This second beast represents those who walk in the soul realm and place their focus and submission to a religious order and follow after man’s derived authority rather than FATHER’S full and complete authority.  The religious authority is based on man’s submission to outward practices that have been implemented to project some superior GOD-given ordination.  Men oversee these organizations and agree to ordain other men as ministers.  Doctrines have been created and customs to be followed in strict adherence to church law.  Do you think FATHER is moved by a robe or a collar?  Do you think a Bible thumping fireball preacher will demand HIS attention?  Will bread and grape juice in the finest china satisfy HIS requirements for communion?  In Matthew 23, Jesus spoke of the outward condition of the church during His ministry:

25   “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cleanse the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of extortion and self-indulgence.

26   Blind Pharisee, first cleanse the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also.

27   “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness.

28   Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.

All of the outward religious traditions, practices, processes, and schedules are designed to bring the masses into submission.  All who submit to those religions have mentally accepted the “mark” on their forehead and those who support those religions with their actions and resources have the “mark” on the hand.

Seven Is the number of Spiritual perfection and completion.  Six is the number of man.  There is a vast chasm between those two numbers and much could be said in comparing the two numbers.  Man was to work six days and rest on the seventh day.  This seventh day represents “being” not “doing”.  The number 666 represents all three facets of man: spirit, soul, and body.  All three facets come up short to full and complete Spiritual perfection and maturity.  You could say the number of the Sons would be 777 in comparison.  Lamech, Noah’s father, lived to be 777 years and his name means “powerful”.

The number of the beast represents the nature of the beast.  The beast would have you work for your salvation rather than it being a free gift from Above:

Romans 5:18   Therefore, as through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man’s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life.

19   For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.

We are to put on the mind of Christ, not the mind and thinking of man.  The Living Word is given unto us to ponder and trust in, not the traditions of men.  We are to use our hands for the purpose and calling given to each of us individually.  The hand represents action and our energy should be directed to HIS Divine Intent in our lives, not in submission to some pastor’s vision for a larger church building so he only has to preach one time on Sunday morning, leaving the building empty and unoccupied for the remainder of the day.  It is estimated that there are about 4,200 religions on the earth today.  Are there 4,199 wrong ones?  We are to be Spiritual, not religious.  Religions cause division among people whereas FATHER is in the unity business.  The beast has divided men by creating religion to move the focus away from the internal.

The mark and number have been active for centuries and John was given the mystery to be revealed for our benefit.  Let us each mature beyond the 666 number and as we die to the flesh, all three aspects of our being will align with HIS Divine Intent for our lives.  Let us not fear man’s systems which are designed to enslave us.  As Jesus said in John chapter 8:

31 Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed.

32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
