Victory Over Beast

I noticed in Rev 15:2 how there are
identified those who overcame and
got the victory:
(1) victory over the beast
(2) victory over image of the beast
(3) victory over mark of the beast
(4) victory over name-number of the beast
Rev 15:2 KJV
And I saw as it were a sea of glass
mingled with fire: and them that
had gotten the victory over the beast
and over his image, and over his
mark, [and] over the number of
his name, stand on the sea of glass
having the harps of God.
How are believers victorious?
By faith, we received Christ's:
(1) victory over the beast thru
forgiveness as He freee us from
sin and (2nd) death
(2) victory over image as He
provides new name/image when
we were born again from above
(3) victory over mark/stains as
He gave us the Holy Spirit to
will and to work His word in us
(4) victory of name-number as we
are in His Sabbath Rest of 7th Day
eternal life that can not be counted
by the beast
1st Cor 15:57 KJV
But thanks [be] to God, which
giveth us the victory through
our Lord Jesus Christ.

Done All To Stand / Standing Firm

Ephesians 6:13-15

"Therefore take up the whole armor of God
that you may be able to withstand [G436]

in the evil day; and having done all to stand
firm [G2476], stand [G2476] therefore,
having fastened on the belt of truth, and
having put on the breastplate of righteousness
and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the
readiness given by the gospel of peace."

Strong's G436 - Ant-histemi = to withstand, resist
Strong's G2476 - Histemi = to stand firm, establish

Colossians 4:12    KJV
"Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of
Christ, saluteth you, always labouring
fervently for you in prayers, that ye may
stand [G2476] perfect and complete in all
the will of God."

What can we learn from these two verses

and their emphasis on Standing Firm?

Each believer needs to

withstand and resist

which will lead to the

establishment of

standing firm.

First, identify what's holding you back, keeping

you down, devouring your fruitfulness in daily life.

This is the time to question everything, research

and prepare your the coming storm of evil.

(belt of TRUTH) - keep it fastened, not loose.

Next, carefully consider your choices, your

options, your own heart in terms of eliminating

those things that are holding you back. What

does your life look like as you take these things

(or relationships) out of your daily life? Can you

live your life without them? Are you sure? Really?

Can you live your life fighting against them?

(breastplate [armor] of RIGHTEOUSNESS)

Finally, prayerfully, emotionally, mentally,

willfully, with all your strength, with all your

might, with all your will and determination,

KICK those things out of your daily life and

don't even look back! Keep your feet walking

and stay positive while you go through the

natural withdrawal and seductive-type doubts

that always infiltrate a psyche determined to

'clean-house' thoroughly!

(peace-keeping shoes to walk the JOURNEY)

Remember, you're not alone in this walk, it's

by invitation and you're invited to fulfill the

joy of the One Who Reigns Overcoming.
