James 1:5 CSB “Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God—who gives to all generously and ungrudgingly—and it will be given to him.”

Have you asked yourself, “What do I do now?” especially since covid? Are you the person who witnesses for Jesus often? At the grocery store, on the job, anywhere there are people? Does knowing billions have been marked put you in a fix when it comes to sharing the gospel? You’re not alone. You can be sure our brethren around the world are going through the same thing. Have you found yourself sometimes asking, “Did this really happen? The mark of the beast?” You’re not alone there either. At times it feels like our reality has been turned upside down. Notice I said it feels this way sometimes. Remember, feelings can be tricky. (Jeremiah 17:9) The thought, “What do I do now?” comes to my head at times since covid. I guess because I’m such a creature of habit. And all the new rules associated with the pandemic changed my routine. I also believe it’s my flesh talking. My flesh thinks it has to always be doing something to be productive. Sometimes it’s good to be still. It is good to wait on the Lord.
Before covid, the world didn’t love us. (Matthew 10:22) After covid it detested us more. And some we thought loved us deserted us. They were not ready for the great pop quiz. Jesus said this to the Philadelphia church:
Revelation 3:10 LEB “Because you have kept the word of my patient endurance, I also will keep you from THE HOUR OF TESTING that is about to come upon the whole inhabited world, to put to the test those who live on the earth.”
Did not covid; the shots, aka the mark of the beast test, “The whole inhabited world?” And it’s not over. Some think when Jesus says He will keep us from the hour of test it means we won’t go through tribulation. But there are too many scriptures that say we do indeed go through tribulation. (Acts 14:22 Revelation 7:13-14) Many confuse great tribulation with God’s wrath. (1 Thessalonians 5:9) The world experiences God’s wrath. Testing through tribulation and God’s wrath are two different things. All God’s children are forged in the fire. (Hebrews 12:7-8 James 1:2-4 1 Peter 4:12-19) Jesus keeping us from the hour of test means we are kept safe from its harmful effects. The fire refines us. (Daniel 12:9-10) But it burns up the wicked like chaff. (Luke 3:16-17) Again, some we fellowshipped with for years dropped us like a bad habit when covid hit. They were too afraid of dying. Afraid of the conviction of the Holy Spirit through us. (John 16:8 2 Corinthians 2:14-16) They tried to save their livelihoods and lives through the shot. (Matthew 16:24-25) And didn’t want anyone making them feel guilty about it. So they left us. I know sometimes it’s hard to accept but this happened to make them manifest. (1 John 2:18-19)
I ask this question again, is not the world going through a test with the mRNA genetic editing shots? And did Jesus not keep you safe (Philadelphia church)? You kept His patient endurance before covid hit. Professed Christians who were not used to enduring trials for Jesus were not ready. They fell into a trap hook line and sinker. (1 Timothy 6:10) They wanted to eat, drink, and, “Get back to normal,” or get back to their materialistic lifestyles. They believed the lies the serpent spewed to them through the media: “It’s safe and effective.” An experimental drug they were told, “Don’t worry, it’s safe and effective.” “Trust the science,” they say. People trusted in Pharmakeia. In English that word means Pharmacy. Pharmakeia is the Greek word for sorcery found in the Bible. It means the use or administering of drugs, magical arts, poisoning, idolatry, etcetera. God predicted long ago that one day the whole world would be deceived by Pharmakeia/Pharmacy/Sorcery/Magical Arts, or the use and administering of drugs:
Revelation 18:23 ESV “And the light of a lamp will shine in you no more, and the voice of bridegroom and bride will be heard in you no more, for your merchants were the great ones of the earth, and ALL NATIONS WERE DECEIVED BY YOUR SORCERY.”
Look up the original meaning of the word SORCERY in Revelation 18:23 if you need confirmation. I’ve spoken with professed Christians who said God gave them dreams not to take this shot and they did it anyway. Others said they knew deep down inside something was wrong, but did it anyway. “My job said I had to do it,” is the main sentiment. (Revelation 13:16-17) Not to sound harsh but isn’t that like saying, “The woman you gave me told me to eat so I ate?” Or, “The serpent deceived me so I ate?” (Genesis 3:11-13) Some said immediately after they did it they knew they had done something wrong. I heard a guy say recently, “It feels like I’ve changed somehow and I’m gonna die in a few years.” He literally said this to another man who said he heard the shot changes your DNA. One man told me he now sees black spirits while wide awake since he’s been inoculated. And he complained about a constant ringing in his ears. I’ve heard others say similar things on videos. Some have said they found out it is indeed changing their DNA. One guy said, “I’ve done some research about the covid shot. I found out it’s the reason I have these blood clots in my leg. I’m only 30 years old I’m too young to die.” This same man ridiculed me for about a year for not taking the shot. Listening to these folks express they’ve done something they cannot undo is chilling. It brings me no joy to hear these testimonials.
I’ve yet to meet one person who didn’t get the covid shots say they wish they had gotten it. Interesting. Yes, this was and is a huge test for the entire world. And many professed Christians fell:
Matthew 16:24-26 BSB “Then Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me. 25 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. 26 What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?”
THE WAR WITH THE SAINTS
Revelation 12:17 KJV “And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.”
Revelation 13:4-7 LEB “And they worshiped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast, and who is able to make war with him? 5 And a mouth was given to him speaking great things and blasphemies, and authority to act was given to him for forty-two months. 6 And he opened his mouth for blasphemies toward God, to blaspheme his name and his dwelling, those who live in heaven. 7 And it was given to him to make WAR WITH THE SAINTS and TO CONQUER THEM. And authority was given to him over every tribe and people and language and nation.”
Daniel 8:23-25 GWT “In the last days of those kingdoms, when rebellions are finished, a stern-looking king who understands mysterious things will rise to power. 24 He will become very strong, but not by his own strength. He will cause astounding destruction and will be successful in everything he does. HE WILL DESTROY those who are powerful along with SOME HOLY PEOPLE. 25 He will cleverly use his power to deceive others successfully. He will consider himself to be great and DESTROY MANY PEOPLE WHEN THEY DON’T EXPECT IT. He will oppose the Commander of Commanders, but he will be defeated, though not by any human power.”
Did not the antichrist king destroy billions without warning through the mRNA injections? Does not the beast have authority over everyone via the nanotechnology inside their bodies? The churches were the first to reopen as vaccination centers while everyone else was locked down. Yes, church folks after government employees were the first to get the so-called vaccine. How true it is that judgment begins with the household of God. (1 Peter 4:17-18 Ezekiel 9:1-11) They failed the test by obeying the beast system. They used their church buildings as vaccination centers for their congregations and their communities. Right inside God’s house if you will they administered the mark of the beast! This was the nail in the coffin for the unfaithful churches. There is no coming back from genetically modifying your DNA. Whoever has done this is now a chimera, a hybrid. (Revelation 14:9-11) Study what’s in the vaccine vials and see for yourself. Jesus died for humankind. Not for Nephilim hybrid-kind.
THOSE WHO GET THE VICTORY
This is all a bit daunting at times, yes. We are living this reality. No, it’s not a bad dream we will wake up from or a movie. It’s happening. The good news though is the evil beast kingdom will not conquer all the saints. This next passage proves it. Those the Master keeps safe are still human beings. They haven’t been changed. They are marked with His seal in their foreheads. (Revelation 7:2-3 Ephesians 1:13) They are redeemed:
Revelation 20:4 KJV “And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, NEITHER HAD RECEIVED HIS MARK upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and THEY LIVED AND REIGNED WITH CHRIST A THOUSAND YEARS.”
Those saints who reign with Christ are victorious over the beast, his image, and his mark or the number of his name (666). (Revelation 15:1-2) They do not receive the mark of the beast scripture says. They are the Smyrna Church. (Revelation 2:8-11) They are the Philadelphia church. (Revelation 3:7-13) They are the few who found the road that leads to eternal life and stay on it. They are the few saints Satan and the beast do not conquer. The few who deny themselves, take up their crosses daily and follow Jesus wherever He goes:
Matthew 7:13-14 CSB “Enter through the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the road broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who go through it. 14 How narrow is the gate and difficult the road that leads to life, and few find it.”
Back to the title of this article, “What Do We Do Now?” Wait on the Lord is what we do now. Hold on to our faith is what we do. We’re so close to the finish line. We too have the privilege of saying soon, “It is finished.” (John 19:30) How foolish to quit now. There is someone the Lord recently showed me I need to let go of. See, there are still some things to do before it is all finished. It may not be what we want to do. And it may not be what we’re used to doing. But if God says do it, do it. We are still being refined. God will never leave us out of His plans. (Amos 3:7) We must earnestly seek His counsel. (Proverbs 3:5-6) Because His ways are always best. God’s words spoken to physical Israel millennia ago apply to us (spiritual Israel) today:
Jeremiah 29:11 CSB “For I know the plans I have for you”—this is the Lord’s declaration—“plans for your well-being, not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.”
