Revelations 5-9
The one hundred and forty-four thousand consist of 12 tribes of the children of Israel.
(Revelations 7:4)
They have the seal of God in there foreheads (Revelations 3)
They are not defiled of woman, they are virgins. They follow Jesus, they were taken from among men, being the first fruits unto god and to the lamb (Jesus)- There was not guile coming from their mouth. They are without fault before the throne of God. (Revelations 14)
It is my belief that these individuals were either babies, young men or children that have already been taken and already bear the seal of God in their foreheads out of Israel. They were the very first people to accept and believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah.
The 12 tribes are as follows: (Revelations 7: 5-9) (They will rule over us)
1. Tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand.
2. Tribe of Ruben were sealed twelve thousand.
3. Tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.
4. Tribe of A'-Ser were sealed twelve thousand.
5. Tribe of Nep'-tha-lim were sealed twelve thousand.
6. Tribe of Ma-nas'ses were sealed twelve thousand.
7. Tribe of Sim eon were sealed twelve thousand.
8. Tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand.
9. Tribe of Is'-sa-char were sealed twelve thousand.
10. Tribe of Zab'-u-lon were sealed twelve thousand.
11. Tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand.
12. Tribe of Bejamin sealed twelve thousand.
Revelations 5: 5 (Just for your information)
**The lion of the tribe of Juda, the root of David (Jesus Christi), prevailed to open the book and to loose the seven seals thereof.
Remember the Rapture: There will be people taken to be with God with his seal in their forehead who are not part of the 144,000, but as God promised the Gentiles would be included because we accepted him (Jesus) before his own people did. That's why we must be ready like a bride waiting for the groom, because we are very close to the rapture. These people are pias and follow the ten commandments, they stay true to the word and teachings of Jesus Christi. They are true saints.
The Rapture occurs before the Great Seven Year Tribulation.
These people disappear in the blink of an eye. The rapture will occur before the antichrist starts to persecute Gods saints.
1 Corinthians 15:51
Behold I tell you a mystery: we shall not sleep, but we shall be changed - in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye. ( a blink) at the last trumpet.
1 Thessalonians 4: 16-17
For the lord himself (Jesus) will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet up with the lord in the air. And this we shall always be there with the Lord.
Luke 21:36
"Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass., and to stand before the son of man.
1 Thessalonians 1:10
and to wait for this son in heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come. (The Seven Year Tribulation)
1 Thessalonians 5:9
For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord. (Jesus)
The Tribulation- Gods wrath will pour out upon the earth.
The first four years will appear to some degree normal. I believe the seal of the anti-christ will be introduced during this time in the form of a microchip which will imbedded in the forehead or hand.
As Of Today
This is being done and tested in Brazil on patients with mental health issues like Alzheimers, babies is Europe and suspected Terrorist. (See Verichip Technologies.) There was even a family of five that the chip was tested on. People developed a tumor at the sight of the injected chip the size of a grain of rice and soon will be the size of a grain of salt. Then the last three years the Anti-Christ/ Lawless one will have full reign of the earth.
**The people with the Seal of God in their foreheads will not be there during that time.**
After the Great Tribulation: Revelations: Chapter 7: 9-10, 14, 15, 16
There will be a great multitude which no man can number, of all nations, and kindred, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne and before the lamb (Jesus) clothes in white.
(God church is not a church at all. But a group of people who follow scripture to the letter.)
There will be people during the tribulation that God will protect. He will mark them with his seal in their foreheads. They will not suffer the plagues. God will provide a place of safety, food and water. Some people will survive those days and they will see Jesus coming from the heavens. These people also include those that were slain for his name sake. (Jesus) This occurs before the three years that the anti-christ will have full reign of the earth. (see above: 1 Thessalonians 4: 16-17)
Revelations 6:9 (5th Seal)
Souls of them that were slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held. They would ask God, "How long O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth. White robes were given to everyone of them. They were to rest for a season, until their fellow servants also and brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. (When the anti-christ will kill many more servants of God - People who refuse to take his mark.)
Revelation 7:14
These are they which came out of Great Tribulation,(the seven year tribulation) and have washed robes, and made them white in the blood of the lamb. (Jesus is the lamb)
(NO sin, they asked for forgiveness and a second chance, they did not take the mark of the beast, and were killed like so many before them)
They are before the throne of God- They serve him day and night in HIS temple. He shall dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst, neither sunlight on them nor heat. For the lamb (Jesus) shall feed them, lead them to living waters and wipe away all tears from their eyes.
So we must be diligent in our prayers and conviction to be faithful and true to the word of God. Follow the 10 commandments:

(Keep the Sabbath holy) Saturday is the Sabbath day.
The Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:2-17 NKJV) | |
1 | “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me. |
2 | “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 nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My Commandments. |
3 | “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain. |
4 | “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it. |
5 | “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you. |
6 | “You shall not murder. |
7 | “You shall not commit adultery. |
8 | “You shall not steal. |
9 | “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. |
10 | “You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's.” Above all we MUST have FAITH. Man will not be saved by his works alone, but by faith. Written by Donna C. Ledesma Copyright (c) 2011 All rights reserved.
