“Listen carefully, and read with discernment,” says the Lord. For something important is about to be uttered.” [Revelation 13:9]. Remember, I told you that Satan is an imitator. Right now, he has the world right where he wants it; eating out of the palm of his hand. And by his words, he has stirred up a nation and convinced them that they could rule the world. He has convinced them that they are superior to all others, and like a fool, they have bowed before this hellish king, and given him what they have steadfastly refused to give Me. [Revelation 12:10]. So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?” Not knowing that the leader is Satanically empowered. Not knowing that Satan has raised him up so that he can receive worship. [Revelation 13:4-10]. Not knowing that because they have chosen to worship him, I will abandon them to their choice, with all the consequences that come with such a decision. If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
Two beasts are described in the Book of Revelation chapter 13, one from the sea [vs. 1] and one from the land [vs. 11]. With the beast out of the sea, the one from the land, although he claims that he is the peace maker, he is not. He comes as a great source of darkness into the world. He comes not to save the world, but to damn the world. Listen and listen carefully! There is an urgency in the world that has never existed before. Your entire life is about to change. Events will unfold soon to destroy the Western world’s way of life as you know it. Soon, mankind will suffer through the most devastating, bloody war in human history—called, in biblical terminology, the “Great Tribulation.” A war such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. [Matthew 24:21-22]. Yes, a major war in the Middle East is coming soon, and it will be massive. The players are in place and this coming war will be the birth pangs of the Gog-Magog Wars as foretold by God to the prophet Ezekiel. “Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass.” [Luke 21:36]. Because nothing in the past can even remotely compare to what is about to take place. Listen, and listen carefully!
The Book of Daniel was written for your time. Its prophecies speak with increased meaning to your generation. The Bible prophet, Daniel, outlined in vivid detail world events now unfolding before your eyes. They provide “inside information” on the enemy’s plans. They reveal the last-day delusions Satan uses to deceive the world’s population. They also carefully outline God’s strategy for the end time. The days ahead will be difficult. A crisis of unimagined fury will break upon the world. Read and understand the Book of Daniel, for it contains truth for your time. In it, the stories reveal how to be ready for earth’s final days. The prophecies reveal when these last-day events will occur. Understand the significance of today’s news and where it is all leading. Learn to discern. Yearn to discern. For the failure to discern the times and the threat is detrimental. [2Peter 3:3-4]. The exhortation, “Listen carefully and read with discernment!”
