Victorial--The Seal As The End Of The Battle Or Victorial

The victorial end of the battle comes when we are sealed. That is when we win the ultimate victory over Satan, and his beast and the mark of the beast. It decides the battle but not the war yet.

You are fighting the battle with the devil every day. He wants to have you for his own. He wants you to belong to him. So you are fighting every day. Just like everyone else in this generation.

The devil is the ancient dragon who has been with us since the beginning. And yet God was willing to show great mercy to people for many years. He did it by binding the devil for a thousand years.

An angel descended out of Heaven with the key of the abyss and a great chain. This angel was able to overpower the devil, who was misleading everyone in the whole world. He bound him a thousand years.

After the thousand years were finished it was considered necessary to let the devil go for a short time. This was part of God's plan from the beginning. And it marks the return of the devil to everyone in the world.

That started a cycle which happens every thousand years. This millenium is no different. Satan has been released from where he has been pent up for a thousand years. And he is desperate. He is just bursting.

He wants you. He needs you. He hasn't been able to bring any people to himself for a thousand years. That is a long time to wait. Even for the patient. And he is not known as being a patient spirit.

During that thousand years many people did give in to the devil. Many people sinned and many people were condemned. But it does not compare to our generation where Satan is let free for a little while.

He is not wasting any time. He is acting now. He is looking for anyone and everyone he can trick. Deceive. Delude. Betray. And he is working furiously with what little time he has left.

He will eventually be put back in confinement for the next thousand years. Thank God. But until then, watch out! He is driven by the utmost urgency to win you over to himself as soon as possible. Before his dreaded day.

He wants to win over your heart. And he wants to win over your mind. Completely. And he has a terrible weapon. The mark of the beast. Make no mistake. You have not escaped this.

Everyone has received the mark of the beast or been killed. Either you have the mark or you have had it. Nobody escapes in the generation of the devil. It is a mark in your forehead you need in order to buy or sell, and just to stay alive.

But God has a weapon of his own. A secret weapon much more powerful than the mark of the beast. That weapon is the Seal. It goes on the forehead where the mark of the beast does not really belong. Not anymore.

When you are sealed you belong to God. He writes His Name upon your forehead. And though you once had the mark of the beast there, it is gone completely. Forever. Wiped away. Washed away for good.

This is what it takes to get the victory over the mark of the beast. You must be sealed. That's the only way to win. And once you do win the victory with the Seal, you will be known as the victorial.
