What We're Praying/Talking About

Our faith in action, or our small contribution in trying to apply what we're taught in Hebrews 5-6 and James 2:17-26 for the benefit of our dear brothers and sisters within the Body of Christ...

What's The First Thing That Comes To Mind?

Boy, the past few days have given us plenty of stunning images and photos ripe with prophetic symbolism. Well, to my discerning eye anyway.

What's the first thing that comes to mind when you look at this photo?



For me, I recalled the following:

Revelation 13:16-18 -- "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, 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. 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 666."

Revelation 14:9-10 -- "If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives his mark on the forehead or on the hand, he, too, will drink of the wine of God's fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath."

Revelation 20:4 -- "Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Jesus and for the word of God, who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years."

Look, I know this isn't the actual, prophesied Mark of the Beast per se so please don't think that's what this entry is about or trying to claim.

I've just been tuned in lately and very sensitive to the unusual events and images that have prompted me to think about such things. Whenever that happens I want to write about it here for all of you.

I'll leave you with this thought: How surreal (seems I've been using that word a lot these days!) is it that earlier today I reported on the One World Economy and its potential monetary unit as presented to the world courtesy of Russia's leader, and now we have a new image later in the day that strikes a chord with the Mark of the Beast system, which is intricately linked to the One Word Economy and resulting One World Currency?

That, my friends, is what "watching" is all about. Please continue to join me in this noble pursuit because now more than ever we must warn the world about what is standing on our doorstep.

I wrote a free e-book, Walkabout: The History of a Brief Century, trying to popularize the events of the End Times. See what you think!

The first thing that comes to my mind is simply that American's are very patriotic and there is nothing more to it than that.

This photo reminds me of a passage I was reading in Ezekiel this morning. In verse 29 of chapter 20, it reads: "Then I said to them: What is this high place you go to?" (It is called Bamah to this day.)" I did a little research and my memory was jogged to some thing I had read previously, but, had forgotten - "bamah" in Hebrew means heights, heaven or high places - Barack - baraq in Hebrew "lightning" -An amazing tie in to scripture that most of the readers of LUF are already familiar with. - But, what I thought was kind of cool and a neat tie in, is the verse my Bible cross references to this Ezekiel verse. The cross reference is to Isaiah 48:11, which reads - "For my own sake, for my own sake, I do this. How can I let myself be defamed? I will not yield my glory to another." Pretty fitting I'd say, in light of folks such as the ones shown in the photo, who bear the image of this current president on their foreheads.

mrs M,
those photos were taken in Ghana right before the G-8 summit.They are not Americans. Does anyone even remember all the obaaama supporters burning the American flag?happened in Baltimore and I'm sure other cities too...they are socialists and traitors, so for them to put an American flag on their foreheads..no way..maybe with just an image of obama on it. is anyone besides me waiting for a golden statue to be made in this guy's image or what?

Sorry I didn't realise. The image was not labelled and I thought the image was of African American people. I live in another country and I didn't realise that people from USA would burn their own flag. I can understand your comments. Yes, people who burn flags would not put a flag on their forehead.

Warmly, Mrs M
