WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE SEALED BY GOD?

The Bible describes a final group of people who receive the seal of God before the closing events of earth’s history.

Revelation 7:3
“Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.”

The seal is placed in the forehead — representing the mind, character, and settled decisions of the individual.

God’s people are not simply convinced of the truth.

They have allowed Christ to complete His work in them.

Hebrews 8:10
“I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts.”

God’s law is no longer merely something written on stone. It has been written into their hearts and reflected in their lives.

Through complete surrender to Christ, sin has been overcome and His character has been reproduced in them.

Revelation 14:5 describes this final generation:
“And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.”

They have reached the point where they would rather die than knowingly sin against God.

They are settled into the truth — both intellectually and spiritually — so completely that they cannot be moved.

This is why Revelation 14:12 says:
“Here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.”

The sealing is therefore more than understanding the Sabbath.

It is the finishing of Christ’s work in His people.

His law is written in their hearts.
His character is reflected in their lives.
Sin no longer has dominion over them.
They stand fully surrendered and faithful to God.

Christ is preparing a people who will reflect His character completely before He returns.

The question is not only:
“Do I know the truth?”

The deeper question is:
“Am I allowing Christ to reproduce His character in me?”

Worshiping Idols.

God does not want His children worshiping idols. In fact, He feels so strongly about it that it is one of the Ten Commandments that He wrote with His own finger on a tablet of stone. It is recorded in Exodus 20:3-6: “You shall have no other gods before me. “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God.” And in Leviticus 26:1, it says, “You shall not make idols for yourselves or erect an image or pillar, and you shall not set up a figured stone in your land to bow down to it, for I am the Lord your God.” You see, God wants you to love and obey Him, and worship ‘only’ Him. He doesn’t want you to worship anything or anyone else. Jesus said in John 14:15, “If you love Me, keep My commandments.” Some Christians worship idols without even realizing it, because anything that you love more than Jesus Christ . . . is an idol. It could be your fancy new car, a prestigious job, wealth, beauty, power, or countless other things, even people. If you love material things or your relationships more than you love God, then you are worshiping idols. Whatever is standing in the way of your friendship with Jesus, move it or get rid of it! Nothing is more important than your relationship with God! Show Him how much you love Him by praising and worshiping Him - and only Him! In John 4:23, we’re told, “But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him.” Don’t waste your time worshiping material things or people . . . worship the King of the Universe . . . and only the King!

STONE MOUNTAIN: A MONUMENT TO RAPID GEOLOGY

Just outside of Atlanta rises one of the most recognizable landforms in the southeastern United States. Stone Mountain towers 800 feet above the surrounding landscape, a massive dome of solid granite standing alone like the shell of a giant creature. Millions visit it every year, but few stop to consider what it really represents.

Because this mountain was not always above the surface.

Stone Mountain is part of a gigantic underground granite body, what geologists call a pluton. At one point, it existed deep beneath the earth as molten rock, a vast underground reservoir of magma exceeding 1,100 degrees Fahrenheit. That magma was forced upward through intense crustal movements, bending and folding the surrounding rock and contributing to the uplift of the Appalachian Mountains.

For years, the story was simple. Granite formed slowly. Magma crept upward over millions of years, cooling gradually into solid rock. That’s still what many signs and textbooks say.

But that story is breaking down.

Modern research has forced a shift. Instead of slow formation, geologists now recognize that granite emplacement can happen rapidly and catastrophically. And the evidence is right there in the mountain itself.

As you walk across Stone Mountain, you can find foreign rocks embedded within the granite. These are called xenoliths, fragments of surrounding rock that were ripped loose and carried upward by moving magma. The key detail is what their edges look like.

They are sharp.

If those rocks had been sitting in molten magma for long periods, they would have partially melted. Their edges would be blurred, rounded, and absorbed into the surrounding granite. But they are not. The sharp boundaries show that the magma moved quickly and cooled rapidly, leaving no time for slow melting and blending.

There is more.

Inside the granite are tiny radioactive features known as polonium halos. These form from the decay of polonium-210, an element with a very short half-life. For these halos to exist, the granite had to solidify quickly, before the polonium decayed away. That is not consistent with millions of years of slow cooling. It points to rapid formation.

Put it together and the picture changes.

This was not a slow, quiet process unfolding over ages.

This was a sudden, high-energy event.

A massive volume of molten rock forced upward through the crust, carrying debris, cooling quickly, and locking everything in place.

And that fits a very different framework.

The Bible describes a global catastrophe that reshaped the earth. During the Flood, massive tectonic movements would have bent the crust, generated heat, and forced magma upward through fractures in the earth. As the waters rose and later receded, they would have deposited and then eroded enormous amounts of material, exposing formations like Stone Mountain.

What stands today is not just a scenic landmark.

It is a record.

A record of rapid formation, violent movement, and powerful forces acting on a global scale.

SERMON for last age — which l the appointed witness of Jesus Reagan l give you— centered on 2 Corinthians 4:3-4. that l have Preached to you in Name of JESUS THE LAMB OF GOD. acts26:16, Heb1:1-2

SERMON: WHY THEY REFUSE THE GOSPEL — THE VEIL OF THE god OF THIS WORLD

Text: 2 Corinthians 4:3-4
"But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them."

Key: Proverbs 29:18 — "Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he."

INTRODUCTION:

Church, Gospel is not weak. Gospel is power Romans 1:16. But many hear and refuse. Sinners, unbelievers — Muslims, idolaters, lukewarm — they mock, they persecute, they compromise truth. Why?

Paul answers: Gospel is veiled. Not because preacher failed. Because god of this age — Satan — has blinded their minds 2 Cor 4:4.

In this last age, God has appointed me Reagan, His servant witness, to testify what He showed me after they vanished — RED 7 vision in sky, Green 7 on wall, skeleton vision — visions of warning, spiritual awakening, rebirth, revival, repentance — so that you of this last age don't perish Proverbs 29:18.

PART 1: 4 PROOFS THAT REFUSAL IS SATAN'S INFLUENCE — NOT JUST HUMAN

1. MOCKING — Spirit of Scoffer
2 Peter 3:3-4 — "Scoffers will come in last days, walking according to own lusts, saying Where is promise of His coming?"
When you preach Jesus is way, they laugh: "You Christians are brainwashed, Jesus is not Son." That mocking is not intellect — it is veil. Acts 17:32 — Some mocked when they heard resurrection.
Satan uses mocking to hide glory 2 Cor 4:4 — "lest light of gospel of glory should shine."

2. PERSECUTION — Spirit of Murderer
John 8:44 — Satan was murderer from beginning.
John 16:2 — "Whoever kills you will think he offers God service."
When sinners persecute preachers, stone, jail, insult — that is god of this age fighting through them. Matthew 5:11-12 — Blessed are you when persecuted for My sake.
Why they persecute? Veil. Blind mind cannot see you bring life.

3. UNBELIEF — Spirit of Blindness
2 Cor 4:4 — minds blinded. John 12:40 — He has blinded their eyes and hardened hearts.
Muslim, sinner, unbeliever says "I cannot believe Jesus is only way, all ways lead to God." That is not logic — that is blindfold by Satan. Ephesians 4:18 — understanding darkened, alienated from life of God because of blindness of heart.
They read same Bible, hear same preaching, but veil remains.

4. COMPROMISE FROM TRUTH — Spirit of Deceiver
1 Timothy 4:1 — In latter times some will depart from faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits.
They say "We believe but we can also do our old ways — fornication, lying, drinking, small compromises." Romans 6:16 — "Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one's slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness?"
Compromise is veil — makes Gospel look like not serious.

PART 2: WHY SATAN DOES THIS — HE IS ALREADY JUDGED AND DOES NOT WANT TO GO ALONE

1. Satan Already Judged
John 16:11 — "The ruler of this world is judged."
John 12:31 — "Now is judgment of this world, now ruler of this world will be cast out."
Colossians 2:15 — He disarmed principalities, triumphed over them by cross.
Satan knows his time short Revelation 12:12. Lake of fire prepared not for man, but for devil and his angels Matthew 25:41.

2. He Wants Company in Eternal Fire — Not Go Alone
Revelation 20:10 — Devil cast into lake of fire.
Revelation 21:8 — "But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is second death."
Satan's mission John 10:10 — steal, kill, destroy — wants to take all evildoers who did not accept Gospel and repent with him to fire.

That is why he blinds 2 Cor 4:4 — so they don't accept Gospel and repent — so they perish with him.

PART 3: ETERNAL LIFE IS REAL — JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY

1. Eternal Life and Eternal Fire Are Real
Revelation 21:8 — second death is real. Not story. Not symbolic. Skeleton vision God showed me — after flesh vanished, bones remained — sign of death without Christ — perish.
Daniel 12:2 — "Some to everlasting life, some to shame and everlasting contempt."

2. Jesus Is The Way To Escape Through Faith AND Obedience
John 14:6 — "I am the way, truth, and life. No one comes to Father except through Me."
Acts 4:12 — No other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.
Romans 6:16 — Faith without obedience is slavery to sin. You become slave to whom you obey. Obey sin — death. Obey Jesus teaching — righteousness leading to eternal life.
John 3:36 — He who believes in Son has everlasting life; he who does not believe shall not see life.

Not just believe — obey His teaching. Matthew 7:21 — Not everyone who says Lord, Lord will enter, but he who does will of Father.

PART 4: VISIONS FOR THIS LAST AGE — SO YOU DON'T PERISH Prov 29:18

God did not leave this last age without witness. He appointed me Reagan, servant witness, to testify what I saw after they vanished.

1. RED 7 Vision in Sky
After it vanished, Lord showed me: RED is blood Leviticus 17:11, 7 is completion Genesis 2:2. Judgment complete by blood. Either blood of Jesus covers you, or your own blood required in fire Hebrews 9:22. Warning to repent before blood required.

2. Green 7 On The Wall
Green is life, mercy, revival Psalm 23:2 green pastures. 7 is perfection. After it vanished — message: God still giving last chance for spiritual awakening, rebirth, revival John 3:3 — You must be born again — awakening in last age. Green 7 — fullness of mercy before RED 7 judgment.

3. Skeleton Vision
After flesh vanished, skeleton remained — Ezekiel 37:1-4 — valley of dry bones — without Spirit, man is dead bones, even while walking. Many in church are skeletons — religious but dead. Need breath of Holy Ghost to live.

Proverbs 29:18 — Where no vision, people perish. These visions are given so you don't perish — but repent, rebirth, revival.

CONCLUSION: ALTAR CALL FOR AWAKENING

2 Corinthians 6:2 — Now is day of salvation.

Satan has blinded you with mocking, persecution, unbelief, compromise — but Jesus came to open blind eyes Luke 4:18.

Today if you are sinner, unbeliever — Muslim, drunkard, fornicator, liar — veil can be removed 2 Corinthians 3:16 — "When one turns to Lord, veil taken away."

PRAYER OF REPENTANCE:

In Name of JESUS THE LAMB OF GOD — god of this age, I renounce your veil! 2 Cor 4:4 — I turn to Jesus! I believe Gospel! I accept Jesus as only way to eternal life John 14:6! I repent of sin, unbelief, mocking, compromise! Romans 6:16 — I choose to obey Jesus teaching, not sin! By blood of Jesus I escape Rev 21:8 second death and receive eternal life! Remove blindness, give me rebirth, revival, awakening — like RED 7 blood covering me, Green 7 mercy reviving me, skeleton becoming living man by Spirit! In Jesus Name Amen!

MORNING TEA

Habakkuk 2:18-19 ->
"What have you gained by worshiping all your man-made idols? How foolish to trust in something made by your own hands! What fools you are to believe such lies! How terrible it will be for you who beg lifeless wooden idols to save you. You ask speechless stone images to tell you what to do. Can an idol speak for God? They may be overlaid with gold and silver, but they are lifeless inside.

Note: Say No to all forms of idols, it's a medium through which satan captures the souls of men.

TURNING TRASH INTO TREASURE

By Pastor Jonathan Ubah

Text: Romans 8:28
“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.”

INTRODUCTION

Beloved, there are seasons when life can make you feel like trash—rejected, forgotten, broken, disappointed, or useless. Sometimes people look at your past and conclude that nothing good can come from you.

But I came to announce to somebody today: God is a specialist in turning trash into treasure!

What people reject, God can select. What people discard, God can develop. What looks like a wasted season can become a powerful testimony.

The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 1:27, “God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise.”

God does not always choose what looks valuable to men. He sees what others cannot see.

1. GOD CAN USE YOUR BROKENNESS

Psalm 34:18: “The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart.”

Sometimes we think our brokenness disqualifies us, but God can work through broken things.

Joseph was betrayed by his brothers, thrown into a pit, and sold into slavery. His circumstances looked like trash, but God was preparing him for the palace.

Genesis 50:20 says, “You meant evil against me; but God meant it for good.”

Your pain is not necessarily your punishment. Sometimes God uses painful seasons to prepare us for greater purposes.

Don't despise your broken pieces. Put them in the hands of God.

2. GOD CAN TURN YOUR FAILURE INTO A TESTIMONY

Micah 7:8: “When I fall, I will arise.”

Failure is not final unless you choose to remain down.

Peter denied Jesus three times, yet Jesus restored him and later used him mightily in the early Church (John 21:15–17; Acts 2:14–41).

You may have made mistakes. You may have taken the wrong turn. You may have experienced things you are not proud of.

But hear this: Your failure is an event, not your identity.

The enemy wants you to look at what you did and conclude that you are finished. But God looks at you and sees what you can become by His grace.

Proverbs 24:16 says, “For a righteous man may fall seven times and rise again.”

Get up! Wash your tears. Learn from the experience. Return to God and keep moving.

God can turn your mess into a message and your test into a testimony.

3. GOD CAN TURN REJECTION INTO DIVINE ELEVATION

Psalm 118:22: “The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone.”

Jesus Himself was rejected by men, yet He became the cornerstone of God's redemptive plan.

David was overlooked by his own family when Samuel came looking for the future king. His brothers were presented, but David was left in the field.

Yet God said in 1 Samuel 16:12: “Arise, anoint him; for this is the one!”

Never allow people's rejection to make you reject yourself.

Sometimes rejection is God's way of redirecting you.

Some doors closed because God was preparing another door. Some people walked away because they were never assigned to your destiny.

What they rejected may be exactly what God will use to announce you.

CONCLUSION

Beloved, the trash is not the final destination of what God has chosen.

Joseph went from the pit to the palace.
David went from the field to the throne.
Peter went from denial to becoming a powerful witness for Christ.

And if God could transform their stories, He can transform yours.

Your past is not too dirty for His grace.
Your failure is not too great for His mercy.
Your rejection is not too strong for His purpose.

Give God your broken pieces.

The same God who turned water into wine can turn your sorrow into joy, your weakness into strength, your failure into wisdom, and your trash into treasure.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I declare over your life:

Every rejected area of your life shall become a testimony. Every painful experience shall produce purpose. Every closed door shall lead you to God's appointed door. Your wasted seasons shall be redeemed, and God shall turn your trash into treasure!

You will not die in the place of rejection.
You will not remain in the place of brokenness.
You will arise, shine, and fulfill God's purpose for your life.

Your story is changing! Your testimony is coming! Your treasure is emerging!

In Jesus' mighty name, Amen!

Certainly. Here is Psalm 91 (KJV):

> 1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

9 Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
