  giving us a new lease on life. Father, we thank you for

  Father, I pray that we'll be found with our hand to the plow,

  eyes locked with you, God, and living unafraid, living
• 2:13
  unashamed. Gird up our loins so that we can
• 2:15
  stand in your holy presence. Father, we do not grovel.
• 2:19
  Father, we are yours. We're your lay down lovers.
• 2:23
  We're your Saints, Lord, we're the children of you, the Most
• 2:27
  High God. Help us to understand our
• 2:31
  identity in Christ Jesus. Seat us there with you, Lord, in
• 2:36
  heavenly places in Christ Jesus Lord.
• 2:38
  We get in Christ Jesus Lord to escape all of the things that
• 2:43
  are coming upon this earth, Father.
• 2:46
  We and him and Him and us. Father abiding Lord, it's you
• 2:50
  and it's your purposes and plans that we yearn for.
• 2:55
  All of creation groans God, yearning for the day that you,
• 3:00
  for you to make every wrong thing right.
• 3:03
  Jesus Christ high and lifted up, exalted over all governments and
• 3:08
  principalities. Jesus Christ, the name above all
• 3:12
  names, above it all, above every single person, man, woman and
• 3:20
  child over all of creation is Jesus Christ.
• 3:27
  We love you. Heal us today, heal our bodies,
• 3:31
  heal our minds. God, I pray that you'll help us.
• 3:35
  Help us to know that you are right here with us.
• 3:39
  Where two more gathered. You were there, Father.
• 3:41
  So we celebrate the Lord today. We celebrate King Jesus in the
• 3:47
  blood that was spilled, but we celebrate salvation, God.
• 3:53
  And for all those who were turning from their wicked ways
• 3:56
  and turning towards a loving Savior, Jesus, Elohim Adonai, we
• 4:05
  love you, Elroy, we love you. Jehovah Rapha, Jehovah Nissi,
• 4:14
  Jehovah Gyre, we love you, Yahweh, Prince of Peace,
• 4:20
  wonderful counts, we love you. The branch we love you.
• 4:27
  And it's in your holy and precious name that I pray Jesus
• 4:30
  Christ of Nazareth, Amen. Let's start in verse one.
• 4:37
  And there appeared a great wonder in heaven, a woman
• 4:41
  clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet, and upon
• 4:46
  her head a crown of 12 stars. Israel, friends, this is the
• 4:51
  nation Israel. Right here you can see that God
• 4:55
  has a peculiar plan for the ethnic Jews.
• 5:00
  You can see here that God all the way at the end of the Bible
• 5:07
  he marks out this little nation Israel, and that is who is
• 5:11
  described here as a great wonder in heaven.
• 5:15
  The woman clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet, and
• 5:19
  upon her head a crown of 12 stars.
• 5:22
  That is the 12 tribes. 2 And she being with child cried,
• 5:28
  travailing in birth and pain to be delivered.
• 5:31
  Jesus Christ came in a very turbulent time where Rome was
• 5:37
  railing against the nations. Rome was the powerhouse, these
• 5:42
  iron legs that were described in the book of Daniel.
• 5:46
  And here Israel had the privilege of knowing the only
• 5:51
  God in all of creation. He is the only uncreated and He
• 5:57
  chose them and He chose to reveal Himself to them through
• 6:04
  Father Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, which means Israel,
• 6:10
  friends, and they are His chosen people and they were chosen to
• 6:16
  radiate the light of one true living God, not this idea of
• 6:25
  many gods as other religions have, friends.
• 6:29
  There is only one true God and it was revealed to Israel and we
• 6:34
  are the byproducts of that revelation to Abraham.
• 6:39
  And we get to house and to hold the Jewish Bible that you hold
• 6:44
  in your hand. And we worship a Jewish savior,
• 6:48
  friends, and that is the amazing facts that Jesus Christ was born
• 6:55
  through the ethnicity of the Jewish lineage of Israel,
• 7:02
  Friends, a Jewish king, verse 3 And there appeared another
• 7:07
  wonder in heaven and behold, a great red dragon having 7 heads
• 7:12
  and 10 horns and seven crowns upon his heads.
• 7:16
  Obviously this is Satan, friends.
• 7:19
  We have seen Israel in the first verse.
• 7:21
  We've seen Jesus Christ in the second verse.
• 7:24
  And then here we arrive at Satan, and it's going to be
• 7:29
  described of all of the ways that he looks as if he has all
• 7:34
  the power. But God is in heaven and laughs
• 7:39
  for. And his tale drew the third part
• 7:41
  of the stars of heaven and did cast them to the earth.
• 7:44
  And the dragon stood before the woman, which was ready to be
• 7:48
  delivered for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
• 7:52
  So Satan's been studying God's playbook.
• 7:56
  God wrote the Bible and gave it to Satan, and Satan uses it and
• 8:00
  tries to outwit and outsmart God.
• 8:02
  But God is omnipotent and sovereign, and there is no
• 8:07
  outplaying God, and Satan doesn't even realize that he's
• 8:11
  getting played. And here you can see through the
• 8:15
  babies in his in Egypt getting thrown into the Nile that Satan
• 8:19
  was trying to thwart God's plan of getting his head crushed.
• 8:23
  That was pronounced all the way back in the book of Genesis.
• 8:27
  And here you can see that Satan was trying to thwart God's plan
• 8:31
  through the killing of the babies to and under whenever the
• 8:35
  wise men came to Herod. You can see that even in this
• 8:40
  day Satan is trying to get rid of the Jews and this
• 8:44
  anti-Semitism, which is disgusting friends.
• 8:49
  And it's all satanic and it can be wrapped up in humanitarian
• 8:54
  efforts and morality, but it is disgusting at the heart friends.
• 8:58
  Far be it from us to ever turn our backs on the Jews.
• 9:06
  Five. And she brought forth a man
• 9:08
  child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron.
• 9:14
  And her child was caught up to God and to his throne, Jesus
• 9:20
  Christ. Friends, you can see He rules.
• 9:23
  Go and read Psalms 2 and you'll see that there are four curtain
• 9:29
  calls and the first one is the nation's railing and trying to
• 9:33
  Rage Against religion. And then the second curtain call
• 9:37
  is Jesus Christ ruling. You can see it that He is able
• 9:44
  to smash the earthen vessels like pottery.
• 9:48
  You see that He rules the nation's with this rod of iron.
• 9:52
  Her child was caught up to God. That's the ascension that we saw
• 9:57
  after he appeared to many after his resurrection and then the
• 10:02
  ascension 6th and the woman fled into the wilderness where she
• 10:06
  had a place prepared of God and they should feed her there 1203
• 10:12
  score days. So we can see that God has
• 10:16
  placed the mark on these 144,000 so that they do not suffer harm
• 10:24
  and you can see that God protects the nation Israel and
• 10:27
  they will make it to the end. You cannot annihilate them.
• 10:31
  You cannot wipe them off the face of the earth.
• 10:34
  You cannot obliterate them. If every single nuclear bomb on
• 10:39
  planet earth was pointed towards that little nation, friends, God
• 10:42
  would not allow it to happen. Just so you know, they are
• 10:46
  protected and they will be all the way at the end.
• 10:52
  And that is how you can know that you know that you know that
• 10:55
  you know that they are God's chosen people.
• 10:57
  They have stood the test of time.
• 10:59
  There have been many attempts to try and annihilate them and to
• 11:05
  wipe that nation off the earth. And it has come to nothing but
• 11:09
  the frustration and the demise of every single people group
• 11:14
  that have ever persecuted them. It has LED them to financial
• 11:20
  ruin, it has LED them to all kinds of disgusting practices,
• 11:27
  and you can see that God in his word is true and reliable, and
• 11:31
  it stands the test of time and that nation Israel, will be
• 11:35
  there in the end. 7 And there was 4 in heaven.
• 11:40
  Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the
• 11:43
  dragon fought with his angels. These fallen angels.
• 11:47
  The 1/3 of the angelic beings was cast down with Satan at the
• 11:56
  initial rebellion when sin was found in heaven.
• 12:00
  And you can see that Michael and Gabriel, they have charge over
• 12:04
  the other third and 3rd. And here you can see that Satan
• 12:09
  in the book of Job has access to heaven.
• 12:12
  And this is when after 3 1/2 years of Satan being the accuser
• 12:17
  of the brethren, after 3 1/2 years God does not allow him
• 12:23
  back in to heaven and he's cast down.
• 12:26
  And that's where this war that broke out in heaven, it's after
• 12:29
  the 3 1/2 years A and prevailed not neither was their place
• 12:36
  found anymore in heaven. So he cannot enter back into
• 12:39
  heaven to accuse the brethren after 3 1/2 years during the
• 12:43
  seven-year tribulation 9 and the great dragon was cast out, that
• 12:48
  old serpent called the devil and Satan which deceived the whole
• 12:52
  world, he was cast out into the earth and his angels were cast
• 12:57
  out with him. This is when he really starts to
• 13:01
  writhe and agony and pain. He knows that his time is short
• 13:05
  and his head's about to get crushed, but he's not going to
• 13:10
  go out without a fight. 10 And I heard a loud voice saying, in
• 13:14
  heaven now has come salvation and strength and the Kingdom of
• 13:18
  our God and the power of his Christ.
• 13:20
  For the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them
• 13:25
  before our God day and night. So here you can see what Satan's
• 13:29
  main offices, he goes and he tries to accuse, use all of the
• 13:33
  brothers to God of all the sins that they're committing.
• 13:37
  He goes around the world. He is not omnipresent.
• 13:40
  He cannot be all places at once. He's not omniscient.
• 13:44
  He doesn't know everything. He only knows what we speak and
• 13:47
  what we look at. He observes us and he has all of
• 13:50
  his satanic cohorts to watch us friends and report back to him.
• 13:55
  And here you can finally see what is his office.
• 13:59
  What does he do? And we are not ignorant of his
• 14:02
  schemes. In the mighty power of Jesus
• 14:04
  Christ, Holy name, we cast him out and bind him into the
• 14:09
  darkness, into the chains of gloom.
• 14:11
  Friends 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by
• 14:17
  the word of their testimony, and they love not their lives unto
• 14:21
  the death. We don't even care if we die,
• 14:23
  Friends. We have Jesus Christ, and we
• 14:26
  know we're going to be there with Him forever, and we're
• 14:28
  going to overcome Satan. We're going to overcome the
• 14:31
  demons with our testimony. Do you have a testimony?
• 14:36
  Do you know what your life was like prior to Jesus?
• 14:39
  And then what was the moment whenever he came and he rescued
• 14:43
  you from yourself and from sin? And how is your life now?
• 14:46
  What is your testimony, friends? And it's by the blood of Jesus
• 14:50
  Christ that we enter into heaven.
• 14:52
  There is no other way to get into God's presence other than
• 14:55
  being covered in the blood of Jesus Christ. 12 Therefore
• 15:02
  rejoice you heavens, and you that dwell in them.
• 15:06
  Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea, for the
• 15:11
  devil has come down unto you having great wrath, because he
• 15:15
  knows that he has but a short time.
• 15:17
  So all of the inhabitants that were not raptured up are going
• 15:21
  to go through literal hell on earth.
• 15:24
  And Satan is writhing in agony at this time, because he knows
• 15:28
  that his head is about to get crushed. 13 And when the dragon
• 15:33
  saw that he was cast into the earth, he persecuted the woman
• 15:37
  which brought forth the manchild.
• 15:40
  So this is a Jewish remnant that gets saved during the seven-year
• 15:47
  tribulation. So he's persecuting them and
• 15:51
  that is nothing new for them. They are.
• 15:54
  The Jews are the most persecuted people group on planet earth in
• 15:59
  the history of mankind and they're still here.
• 16:03
  Imagine that 14 and the woman and to the woman were given 2
• 16:09
  wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness,
• 16:13
  into her place, where she is nourished for a time and a times
• 16:18
  and half a time from the face of the serpent.
• 16:21
  So the Jews will be taken care of during the last 3 1/2 years
• 16:26
  of the Antichrist rule and reign on this earth. 15 And the
• 16:33
  serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the
• 16:38
  woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.
• 16:43
  So there He brings everything that he has against Israel.
• 16:48
  Antichrist and Satan fueling him, tries to wipe them off the
• 16:53
  face of the earth. But let's see what happens. 16
• 16:56
  and the earth help. The woman in the earth opened
• 16:59
  her mouth and swallowed up the flood, which the dragon cast out
• 17:03
  of his mouth. Everything is under God's total
• 17:06
  control, and if He wants to open up the earth into a place that
• 17:10
  protects them so that they are not completely wiped out, that
• 17:14
  is what he can do. God can do anything and we'll
• 17:19
  end on 17. And the dragon was wroth with
• 17:22
  the woman, and he went to make war with the remnant of her
• 17:26
  seed, which keep the commandments of God and have the
• 17:30
  testimony of Jesus Christ. So you can see here that at the
• 17:35
  end, Satan is very wrathful towards the followers of Jesus
• 17:40
  Christ. He cannot stand that we have the
• 17:43
  protection of God. He cannot stand that we know
• 17:47
  God. And it's the rebellion of Satan,
• 17:50
  friends, and it's leading so many people astray, and they're
• 17:54
  choosing death over life every day.
• 17:57
  And we need to pray for those people.
• 17:59
  We need to be burdened for those people.
• 18:02
  They need to repent, they need to confess, they need to turn
• 18:05
  while there is still time. Friends, I hope you've been
• 18:09
  blessed by this amazing chapter in God's Word.
• 18:12
  I know I sure have. I'm praying for every single one
• 18:16
  of you, and I love you. We'll see you back here
• 18:22
  tomorrow. God bless you.
