“For the day of the LORD of hosts
shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty…
…and upon all pleasant pictures.
…and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day.
And the idols He shall utterly abolish.
Isaiah 2:12, 2:16-18

.
.
In yesterday’s devotional (click here), the concept was revealed of how we now live in a cornucopian super-society in which various enviable lifestyles almost seem to be pressed out on some giant factory assembly-line.
.
Yes, and these mass-produced life-styles are then marketed around the world via television, radio, magazines, Internet, billboards, and whatever other means possible!
.
And with the help of glamorous spokespeople acting as front-men and front-women, Satan, “the god of this world” sells his “product” to the unsuspecting multitudes around the world!

COOKIE-CUTTER LIFESTYLES!
.
And it was mentioned that all this reminds us of some giant cookie-cutter, in which the “god of this world” has a variety of cookie-cutters in which he cuts out and bakes tray after tray of human gingerbread men and women, each with their own particular lifestyle.
.
.
.
.
.
.
EVEN OUR CHILDREN!
.
And for the most part, the vast multitudes around the world are very content to be a part of this devilish kind of world-order.
.
Even little children are indoctrinated into this “Babylonian Dream-Machine” culture at a very young age!
.
.
.
.
.
NAME YOUR LIFESTYLE!
.
Using the television and other mass media, “The Prince of this World”, Lucifer, works behind the scenes to romanticize many varied lifestyles, glorifying them before the onlooking world.
.
Yes, just go through the list of television shows, past and present, which have glorified various “cookie-cutter” lifestyles, making them a source of selfish pride in the eyes of the world’s citizens: shows about doctors and lawyers, and teachers, and fire-fighters, and presidents, politicians, pop-stars, religious prelates, drug dealers, cowboys, business tycoons, truckers, and just about any and every other career and profession one can possibly think of!

THE IMAGE THAT SPEAKS
.
Yes, this arch-enemy of Heaven has perfected his deceptive arts to the point that it is impossible to resist his temptations which come out of Hollywood’s smokes-stacks like giant puffy white clouds, and all this on a 24/7/365 basis!
.
Needless to say, many of these careers and jobs are necessary services for the inhabitants of this fallen world. And there is nothing evil about those necessary jobs and careers.
.
Nevertheless, the “god of this world” can’t let things simply be. No, in these last hours of history, he has received permission in his role as “The False Prophet”, to give these mundane jobs and careers a selfishly proud aura about them, glorifying them in the eyes of this fallen world.

NOT SO GLAMOROUS AFTER ALL
.
Now of course, many people who choose to enter one of these various “glorified” lifestyles, may do so because they were once mesmerized by watching one or more of these glamorizing television shows.
.
And more often-than-not, these deceived ones eventually discover the reality of life, that their so-called “glory” career-choice was not so glamorous after all.
.
No, because this present earth is a world of sin, sorrow, and selfishness, there is no true or lasting glory in these so-called “glamorous” careers.
.
.
.
.
.
.
FALLING STARS
.
Even the very crème-de-la-crème of society, such as being “super-stars”, eventually become victims of the worst human folly, degradation and tragic circumstances: divorce, drug abuse, jealousy, fighting, embarrassing situations, loss-of-inspiration, alcoholism, bankruptcy, and simply getting old, sick, and wrinkled!
.
Even those super-stars who seem to live a charmed life may have to work hard to keep the public from discovering the behind-the-scenes secret of just how miserable and problem-plagued they really are!

HEAVEN’S LIGHT STILL SHINING
.
Well, amidst all this negativity is a wonderful heavenly light, which still shines brightly in this dark and sad world!
.
Yes, this of course, is the light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. And for all those weary ones who have learned by personal experience, the folly of this current lie being put forth by that invisible, “False Prophet”, there is a way of escape from all this pandemic insanity!

“COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE”
.
Yes, there is a way of escape!
.
Because God is now calling any and every heavy-hearted soul to “Come out of her, My people, lest you partake of her sins and receive of her plagues!” Revelation 18:4
.
Yes, there is an end-time exodus now occurring, in which those of us who have suffered under the cruel hand of the “god of this world”, are now being called to “come and follow Me”, as Jesus leads us upward, and out of all the sadness, and the heartache, and madness of this tragic and decaying world!

“A BOOK, KNOWN & READ OF ALL”
2nd Corinthians 3:2
.
And as those Heaven-bound pilgrims continue to go about their daily labors, and their family duties and joys, there will be an undeniable witness around them. And this witness will stand as a silent testimony to all those about them, “that they had been with Jesus. (Acts 4:13)
.
They won’t even have to speak out loud about their “hidden man within”.
.
People will just know it!

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN

LOCATING THE DRAGON
.
THE DRAGON of REVELATION 12 CONSTELLATION . The Dragon Constellation can be located by finding Orion in winter months. The Dragon is to Orion’s left, and the Dragon’s mouth is right next to Orion’s shield. This Dragon’s mouth is the V-like constellation The Hyades Cluster, which is the very same constellation that comprises the head of Taurus the Bull. In other words, Hyades is also known as the head of Taurus the Bull. And Hyades is the mouth of this Dragon.
.
The tip of the Dragon’s tail is composed of that star-cluster known as The Pleiades. The Pleiades is actually in the shape of a lion’s furry tassel tip of his tail. The sketch below shows this Pleiades as the tail tip.
.
Now with aid of a dark starry night, you may begin to connect this mouth and the tail with a very long body in an oval shape. The front and back legs are very well-defined with stars. The front legs are made partially of Taurus. The back legs and rear fin are made of the Cetus Constellation. But the long oval-shaped body has relatively few stars, but can been seen, howbeit with a dark starry night. The four stars of the front fins are made partially of Taurus. This Dragon constellation appears in the eastern horizon about mid-summer in the pre-dawn hours, spewing his flood-waters northward toward the Woman of Revelation 12 (Woman in Travail). The Wave of Water is primarily composed of the Constellation Auriga. The are two more less bright stars which are closest to the Dragon’s mouth. These two dimmer stars are also part of this Wave of Water.
