Revelation 15:1  Then I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous: seven angels having the seven last plagues, for in them the wrath of God is complete.

2   And I saw something like a sea of glass mingled with fire, and those who have the victory over the beast, over his image and over his mark and over the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God.

3 They sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying:

​​​“Great and marvelous are Your works,

​​Lord God Almighty!

​​Just and true are Your ways,

​​O King of the saints!

4 ​​Who shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name?

​​For You alone are holy.

​​For all nations shall come and worship before You,

​​For Your judgments have been manifested.”

As we have seen in Scripture, the number seven represents Spiritual maturity or completion.

Those of us who are completely assured of FATHER’S Love do not fear the seven plague’s.  Physical death is not the end of all things but is only a passing from death to life as Jesus showed us.  Those who excessively mourn are those who have difficulty in letting go of their loved ones.  The loved one has been released of their physical body and is no longer suffering.  They would not have the remaining ones suffer from loss.  Is your fear of the unknown greater than your revelation of FATHER’S Love?

The word “wrath” has caused fear in men’s hearts, especially when preachers paint such a dismal picture of their interpretation of this Fifth Gospel.  Fear is an instrument of control and manipulation and we are told over and over to “fear not”.  The word “plague” in the above passage references back to a Greek word meaning: to form, mold (something from clay, wax, etc.), used of a potter.  In light of this, these seven angels are being used to convert vessels of dishonor into vessels of honor.  A vessel of dishonor has rejected Our Heavenly Father and has pursued the course of death and destruction.  They have resisted the will of FATHER and then they blame HIM for their circumstances.  They blame the external for their internal problem.  Their hearts are far from Our Heavenly Father.  Paul provides insight about the Potter’s intent in Romans chapter 9:

19 You will say to me then, “Why does He still find fault? For who has resisted His will?”

20 But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed say to him who formed it, “Why have you made me like this?”

21 Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?

22 What if God, wanting to show His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,

23 and that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy, which He had prepared beforehand for glory,

Our Heavenly Father has endured great longsuffering with the vessels of dishonor.  They have consistently rejected HIS Love toward them yet HE has been raising up vessels of honor to demonstrate HIS great Love and mercy for all of mankind.  The plagues are for correction, not everlasting punishment.  This is why those who have been delivered from the tumultuous, raging sea of humanity are now seen as a “sea of glass”, truly in a state of peace and tranquility.  They are singing the song of Moses, the song of deliverance as denoted by Passover for they have been redeemed by the blood (Love) of the Lamb.

Notice that the sea of glass is the source of the Song of Moses.  This sea of glass represents mankind and they are the ones singing.  Also notice how they address FATHER as “Lord God Almighty”.  They have known HIM not as FATHER but in the past simply referred to HIM as GOD.  Upon their deliverance, they are now addressing HIM properly and reverently.

In the mid 1990’s during my 10 year call to morning prayer, one morning I was praying and addressing FATHER as “GOD” this and “GOD” that… HE suddenly stopped me in my tracks and said, “Either call me Lord God Almighty or FATHER, but quit calling me GOD, it’s your choice”.  I opted for “FATHER” from that day forward.  In the above passage we see HIS proper Name used by the redeemed sea of humanity.  With what name do you address HIM?  The term GOD only is not reverent to the ONE Who created the universe.  Consider correcting your speech and relationship.  Those found in the third Heaven have… and you will too at some point.

The song above reveals that the nations worship FATHER after the judgments have been manifested, not before.  There is an easy way and a hard way, most have chosen the hard way.

I am encouraged by HIS Plan coming forth for there is no plan B.  FATHER’S judgments are soon to arrive on earth and bring forth correction to all of mankind.  The great whore, Mystery Babylon, will be dealt with in due time.  As all of creation groans in anticipation of HIS judgments, we should set our focus ON HIM and HIS Love.  Let not our Love for HIM grow cold.  Let not these words be directed toward us “Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love”.  Return to Love for HE awaits you.

HIS wrath is for correction and restoration and let the masses prepare themselves for the Song of Moses to come forth from their lips.

Revelation 14:14   Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle.

15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, “Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come for You to reap, for the harvest of the earth is ripe.”

16 So He who sat on the cloud thrust in His sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped.

The many-membered Sons are “One” like the Son of Man and make up His Body.  They now have the Divine authority and are prepared to harvest the earth.  The cloud of witnesses beyond the Throne which make up the outer court will watch and observe as the Sons go forth in power and authority for they truly have the revelation of Love in their hearts.  Jesus spoke of this harvest and explained the parable of the wheat and the tares in Matthew 13:

38 The field is the world, the good seeds are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are the sons of the wicked one.

39 The enemy who sowed them is the devil, the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are the angels.

40 Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age.

41 The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness,

42 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

43 Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!

Angels are messengers with a specific mission given to them by FATHER.  We are now at the end of the age by the reckoning of those who study the prophetic time clock.  Exactly when will this harvest occur?  What does it matter if you are one with FATHER?  We should spend each day enjoying our relationship with HIM and know that when the day comes for this harvest, we will be endued with power from ON HIGH to participate in whatever capacity we are called.  FATHER knows our hearts and our calling thus we can trust HIM in fulfilling HIS plan in us.  We must wait on THE LORD!

In the timeline of our preparation, this passage begins the events that we all are waiting for.  The earth is yet to be harvested and the Sons have been in the process of being perfected.

Revelation 14:17 Then another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.

18 And another angel came out from the altar, who had power over fire, and he cried with a loud cry to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, “Thrust in your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for her grapes are fully ripe.”

19 So the angel thrust his sickle into the earth and gathered the vine of the earth, and threw it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.

20 And the winepress was trampled outside the city, and blood came out of the winepress, up to the horses’ bridles, for one thousand six hundred furlongs.

This chapter speaks of three groups:  The Sons of GOD, the wheat harvest of the church, and the final harvest of the rest of mankind who dwell outside “the city”.  The blood is associated with the number of Love (16) in that the distance was 1,600 furlongs.  FATHER’S Love extends beyond the Throne, the outer court, and the city.  It extends to all of mankind.  The sharp sickle tells us that nothing will be left after the cut of the sickle for it was fully prepared to complete the harvest.  The “barley” overcomers, the “wheat” of Pentecost, and the “grapes” of the third feast, Tabernacles, are all included in this chapter.

In Scripture the number 14 represents release or deliverance.  It is only appropriate that verse 14 of chapter 14 represents the final deliverance of all mankind.

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!
