(To Coincide with Fasting Prayer Service Session III)
Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Revelation chapter 2-3 refers to the seven sprinklings of blood in front of the Ark, the last purification that God has done for us so we can be perfected to become His Bride. We are learning the second one that is the congregation in Smyrna.
Revelation 2:11
2:11 Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who is victorious will not be hurt at all by the second death.
God promises to congregation in Smyrna who are purified and win will not be hurt at all by the second death.
Revelation 20:14-15
20:14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death.
20:15 Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.
It means they will not enter the hell but their names are written in the book of Life.
Revelation 13:8
13:8 All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast—all whose names have not been written in the Lamb’s book of life, the Lamb who was slain from the creation of the world.
It means they do not worship Antichrist.
Revelation 13:16-18
13:16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads,
13:17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.
13:18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. That number is 666.
One who does not worship Antichrist is one who has the wisdom from heaven. It means he obeys the Word, loves God more than anything, and worships Him whatever the risk may come.
The practices of one who does not suffer the second death or worship Antichrist are as follows:
God blesses us.
Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The practices of one who does not suffer the second death or worship Antichrist are as follows:
- One is free from the spirit of selling-buying.
Revelation 13:17
13:17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.
It means we do not look for any physical recompense in ministry. We are not stingy and greedy but can return God’s (tithe and special offering). We can give and visit others who are in need and enter the building of the body of Christ. - One is free from the spirit of indignation.
Matthew 21:15
21:15 But when the chief priests and the teachers of the law saw the wonderful things he did and the children shouting in the temple courts, “Hosanna to the Son of David,” they were indignant.
Indignation means being angry or hatred without reason.
One is free from the spirit of indignation means we can love others even our enemy like ourselves. - One is free from Antichrist’s seal (666) on right hand and forehead.
Revelation 13:16, 18
13:16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right handsor on their foreheads,
13:18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. That number is 666.
Deuteronomy 6:6-8
6:6 These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts.
6:7 Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.
6:8 Tie them as symbols on your handsand bind them on your foreheads.
In order to prevent the seal of 666, starting from now our foreheads and right hands must be sealed by the Word of God with the help of Holy Spirit. The process is as follows:- Holy Spirit helps us to hear the Word solemnly so we can understand It. When we understand the Word, it means It is sealed on our foreheads.
- Holy Spirit helps us to believe in the Word so It becomes faith in our heart. It means our heart is sealed and written by the Word so we feel spiritual satisfaction.
- Holy Spirit helps us to practice or do the Word so It is written on our right hand.
Matthew 15:19
15:19 For out of the heart come (1)evil thoughts—(2)murder, (3)adultery, (4)sexual immorality, (5)theft, (6)false testimony, (7)slander.
If the heart is filled by seven wills of evil and uncleanness, it will become dark. The eyes become dark and one worships Antichrist. Also he lives blindly in sin up to the peak of sin that is eating-drinking (smoke, getting drunk, drugs abuse) and marrying-being given in marriage (sexual sin and its kinds, sexual deviation, and wrong marriage).
Matthew 5:8
5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart,for they will see God.
If the heart is purified from seven wills of evil and uncleanness, the eyes become bright and able to see God. We only worship Him whatever the risk may come.
The results are as follows:- We experience the sunlight from Jesus’ face that makes us feel peace.
Numbers 6:26
6:26 the Lordturn his face toward youand give you peace.”’
We feel nothing that flesh is used to feel but only love God more than anything. If the heart is peaceful, everything will be easy and light. - We experience the light of grace and mercy of God.
Numbers 6:25
6:25 the Lordmake his face shine on youand be gracious to you;
Hebrews 4:16
4:16 Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
The mercy of God is able to help us in time. It is able to finish our problems even the impossible ones in due time.
Ecclesiastes 3:11
3:11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.
The mercy of God is able to make everything successful and beautiful in time. - We experience the glory of light to change us from carnal man to spiritual one like Jesus. It starts from obedience.
We can obey God through water baptism and worship prayer.
The more we obey the Word, the more beautiful our life is and His image is more concrete in our life. Until Jesus comes a second time, we are changed to become as glorious as He is to be lifted up on glorious clouds, entering the New Jerusalem.
God blesses us.
