My
Sheep Hear My Voice- Rev. 17:14
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

he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him

This proves the 10 kings have not yet come. They are not here now but
will yet come and fight Christ at Armageddon (Rev. 17:14; 19:19-21

"chosen, and faithful," titles used in other Scriptures to
describe true believers (1 Pet. 2:9).
You
see, as has been said so many times before, we Christians are in a
battle. Our leader is the Lamb (Jesus Christ). We are fighting a
very real enemy. The devil and his demons are our enemies. This war
we are in is a war of the spirit. We must come against the devil in
hand to hand combat every day. Our weapon is the two-edged sword
(Bible).
This
war is fought by an army of believers who always have their weapon
(Bible), at their side. Besides having it at their side, they have
its contents inside of them (their food is the Word of God). When
they are in hot combat, the sword comes from their mouth. They are
willing to lay down their lives for the cause of Jesus.
The
flag we Christians fly is the banner of righteousness. It is red
because of the blood of our leader, it is white because of the
righteousness of believers, and it is blue for our heavenly calling.
This is a voluntary army. This battle is in the final hours before
the return of the Lord. This army will be made up of boys, girls, men
and women. God has called a vast army, as He did in Gideon's day.
This
group will be sold out completely to God. They will be willing to
give up homes, family, friends, wealth, and position in their
community to work for God. They will be loyal to Jesus even to the
death. They will have a peculiar uniform described (in Ephesians
chapter 6, this is the Christian’s armor). This uniform will be
provided to us by our Lord (Jesus). Loins girded about with truth,
breastplate of righteousness, feet shod with the preparation of the
gospel, shield of faith, helmet of salvation, and sword of the Spirit
which is the Word of God.
The
big difference is that this army will have patches on their knees.
This battle will be fought with much prayer (on our knees). You see
this victory is the Lord's. We must fight the good fight. Give it
everything you have. The war is peaking now. God needs good
Christians who will not compromise for any reason. The battle is
hard, but the rewards are beyond comprehension; a home in heaven
forever with Jesus and the opportunity to hear Him say, "Well
done thy good and faithful servant".
You
see, we soldiers shall be kings and priests (Rev. 1:6; Rev 5:10), but
He will be Lord and King over all. We are the called, chosen and
faithful. Hallelujah!
Their
antagonism to Christ is indicated throughout the entire seven years.
And when Christ returns, these 10 kings will war against Him but will
be defeated (Rev. 17:14).
