UNDERSTANDING THE BOOK OF REVELATION

                                           Part 23

 

Ok, we ended the last part with the sounding of the sixth trumpet. Now, we will look at the sixth vial being poured out.

 

Revelation 16: 12-16, "And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates, and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. And gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue, Armageddon."

 

So far we have seen that God opens the door for a Holy Spirit message to come to each church age; this is symbolized as "the opening of the seals." And God speaks and declares a truth to every church age; this is symbolized as "the sounding of the trumpets". And God demands a reaction to these seals and trumpets. The only difference in NOW and back in the days of God's wrath, is that HE doesn't pour His wrath out on us, that is finished. BUT, WE BRING THINGS ON OURSELVES by beleiving or not believing His messages to us. The truth is, whatever happens within us, happens out of us.

 

We see that here, in the pouring out of this sixth vial, the Angel of the Lord is still speaking about the Great River Euphrathes. (this is a spiritual river= "the bursting sweet rivers of divine life and His Holy anointing" ; and this river began to dry up. The great spiritual flow of the spiritual deinking waters of the river of life began to dry. And the great Pentecostal Revival has become stagnated, and most refuse to leave that realm. But, as always, God had a remnant.

 

As most of us know, all of us have been through the dry period. Some fell away during this dry period, and some made their own doctrines. As I AM has been rising within us, we have been receiving and seeing just how dry things had gotten. There seemed to be no growth at all. But, THEN the waters started flowing within us. Some rejected those waters and some sought for truth in those waters. And then the truth of our Identity began flowing in some of us. Wasn't it like water to a thirsty man?

 

The Kings of the East symbolizes the last great revival that comes to the earth during the seventh Church age, that we are now in. This revival is unlike any we have experienced. The East is symbolic of the place (us) of God's glory and blessings. Of His VERY BEING!! We can never be dry again. We have been awakened to the beautiful LOVE song of I AM. We became that LOVE song and now we are singing our song to the world. (as we discern who to sing to.)

 

Now, I want to say something about these "unclean spirits like frogs". FIRST OF ALL we must realize that this is how JOHN was seeing this vision that he was having. He saw these "spirits" as Satanic, as demons and devils. And we must remember, that like Daniel, Isaiah and the rest of the men of the OT, they did NOT understand what they were seeing. Remember Daniel being told, when he ask the meaning of the vision he saw? "It is not for YOU to know NOW." Many will say that I am wrong about this, but think about it: IF those of the OT had known all that was going to happen, from the visions that they had seen, they would have already come into completion, or perfection. But, what does Hebrews tell us?

 

Hebrews 11: 38-40, "(Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth. And these ALL HAVING OBTAINED A GOOD REPORT THROUGH FAITH, RECEIVED NOT THE PROMISE; GOD HAVING FORSEEN SOME BETTER THING FOR US, AND THEY (those OT folks) WITHOUT US SHOULD NOT BE MADE PERFECT."

 

It was the same for John. All that he saw, he did not understand. For example, WE know that the devil does not exist except in the minds of those who are not accepting what the written Word says about this.

 

Hebrews 2:14-15, " Forasmuch then as the children ARE PARTAKERS OF FLESH AND BLOOD, , he (Jesus) also himself likewise took part of the same: that through death he might DESTROY him that had the power of death, that is THE DEVIL. And DELIVER THEM WHO THROUGH FEAR OF DEATH WERE ALL THEIR LIFETIME SUBJECT TO BANDAGE."

 

We can see by John's own words that he still believed in the devil, demons and unclean spirits. But, WE are told:

 

Eph. 4: 3-6, "Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. THERE IS ONE BODY, AND ONE SPIRIT, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling. ONE Lord, ONE faith , ONE baptism, ONE GOD and Father of all, who is above ALL, and through ALL, AND IN YOU ALL."

 

Can you see all that these verses say? It is so clear. He is ALL IN ALL and that includes US!! Does this tell you Who you really are? It is glorious and every day it is becoming clearer and clearer to those who are HEARING that inner voice of THEMSELF!! So, we SEE that when Jesus went to the cross, the devil, the demons, the unclean spirits were destroyed. (I have always taught that when I come across the word "spirit", in the scriptures, I replace it with the word, "attitude". There are no spirits, ONLY ONE. The rest is all attitudes in the carnal mind.

Part of the "drying up" was people STILL believing the old wives tales, and not growing in HIS TRUTHS. But, this "drying up" was to prepare the coming forth of the Kings of the East. That is us folks, showing forth the full manifestation of I AM. The Kings of the East comes forth in the seventh church age, which we are now in. Hallellujah!!

 

All through scripture the East has been symbolic of a new beginning.

 

The light of God's day (in the morning) is from the East. (Mt 24:27)

Jacob found his bride in the land of the people of the East. (Gen.29:1)

The star at Jesus' birth was a star in the East. (MT 2:9)

The wise men at Jesus; birth were men of the East. MT 2:1, 11)

 

Our way IS PREPARED!!!

 

"He comes as a thief" HE APPEARS!! Which He is doing right now! How does a thief come? Does He gather a big crowd to watch him? No. Does He scream and shout, "here I come?" No. He comes quietly; softly; silently; AND SWIFTLY!! He is appearing right now through those who know their true Identity. THEY know, but the whole religious world doesn't know. But, the whole religious world does and will feel HIS PRESENCE!!

 

In the next part we are going to look at Armageddon. It is NOTHING as we have been taught.

to be continued....

It is understandable for a child to be afraid of the dark; but, why would an adult be afraid of the LIGHT?
