My Sheep Hear My Voice- Rev. 17:7

My Sheep Hear My Voice- Rev. 17:7

Before Jesus was crucified He told the disciples to watch and pray, something so simple, but they let their physical bodies take over and they fell back asleep. In these last hours of time you need to hear His voice. When He tells you something, it is very important, but most ignore my voice or just discuss it and go on with what they were doing. You will see many things start to happen shortly and if you do not hear and obey His voice,... it will mean death for some of you....Jesus has only your best interest in mind. Christ knows you heart, and if you are truly His you will hear His voice. He awakes many of you at 3am on the dot, but most will roll over and go back to sleep. There are a few who will get up and pray. Your day is filled with so many things and Jesus is the last thing many of you give your time to. But Christ needs to talk to you,... to fellowship with you and only when you are still and quite (3am) can you hear Him,... the rest of your day is so busy you do not have time for Him,... but you need to make time, for time is short and the Lord has instructions for you.

Revelation 17


And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns” Rev. 17:7


Wherefore didst thou... Question 9. Last question in Revelation.
beast that carrieth... The beast carries her, so she must be something separate from the beast itself. One is political; the other apostate religious.
hath the seven... The beast has the 7 heads and 10 horns. He is not any one of the heads or horns. He symbolizes something (Rev. 17:11), and the heads and horns symbolize something else (Rev. 17:12-17). To have a true understanding of the beast one must think of him as being different from both the heads and horns.
Mystery of the... Not that Babylon is a false system of religion, because that is already known, but that the beast will fully support the harlot and together exert vast influence over the whole earth for a time.
The Vision of the Beast - Five details describing the beast are given:
  1. Blasphemous names (verse 3);
  2. Controls seven heads (verse 3);
  3. And ten horns (verse 3);
  4. The prostitute rides it (verse 7);
  5. The beast was, and is not, and will come up out of the bottomless pit (Abyss), and go to his destruction (verse 11).



The careful Bible student will immediately recognize this beast even before examining the angel's interpretation. In the first place, it is similar to the beast (of Rev. 13), and doubtless represents what all beasts used symbolically represent: either a king or a kingdom that opposes God's will.
When John sees the great prostitute, he is "greatly astonished?" Actually, some parts of this vision should have been familiar to John, for it is obviously the same beast as that described (in chapter 13).
The angel introduces his explanation with the words, "This calls for a mind with wisdom" (verse 9), which indicate that only someone with the wisdom of God (found in the Word of God), can understand this vision.


The angel explained the meaning of the woman and of the beast she was riding. The beast… will come up out of the Abyss, the home of Satan (Rev. 11:7) and the place from which demons come (Rev. 9:1-2, 9:11). This indicates that the power behind the ruler is satanic (cf. Rev. 13:4) and that Satan and the man he controls are closely identified. Their power is one.
