✝️TEXT: Revelation 13:11-18(NKJV)
13:11. Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon.
13:12. And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13:13. He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men.
13:14. And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived.
13:15. He was granted [power] to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.
13:16. He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads,
13:17. and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
13:18. Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number [is] .
✝️🗒️ STUDY: The second beast works together with the dragon and the Antichrist to do evil and share a common destiny. It receives authority from, and carries out the wishes of the Antichrist. It symbolises those who directly apply the political, religious and economic pressure on the people of God to abandon the true worship of God. They do this by imitating Christ and performing signs and wonders. The second beast’s programmes look good on the surface but all are aimed at deceiving the elect into worshipping the beast which in this case is the false prophet! Where people refuse to abandon the true worship of God, he persecutes them physically and economically, requiring everyone to receive a mark on the forehead or right hand, indicating ownership and allegiance to the Antichrist.
This false prophet has been active through false prophets, miracle workers and many economic-empowerment programmes and even employment opportunities – all of which are subtle means of getting people to bow to the Antichrist and receive the mark of the beast. But you must beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep’s’ clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves, performing great signs and wonders and leading people astray. Avoid this mark by receiving the mark or seal of God purchased by the blood of the Lamb which secures you for life in eternity with Christ.
✝️🙏PRAYER: Dear Lord, give me a discerning spirit to know the genuine from the fake, Amen.
