[First posted 3.7.20 – update April 2024]
As if by coincidence, a week ago today three people alerted me separately to ‘the Mark of the Beast,’ as in the 13th chapter of The Book of Revelation, as herein:
The Beast from the Earth
11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. 12 And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. 13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. 14 And he deceives [f]those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived. 15 He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. 16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no-one may buy or sell except one who has [g]the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.

1st GOD-INCIDENCE
Friday 26th June was the latter half of 24 hours of fasting to finish a week of prayer held by our church. I limited my drinks to tea or coffee and didn’t have any accompanying ‘yummies’! Therefore, this unusual when joining a couple for a chat over morning coffee at Petersfield Heath. It was their first time near others since the start of lockdown three months ago.
For several weeks the outdoor cafe has opened on certain days to serve take-away drinks, subject to ‘socially distanced’ queuing and not handling items, such as cash, for the good of the staff’s health. So, it’s ‘contactless payments only’. We’ve known the manager since the cafe first opened and my card is not enabled for such payments, so they allow me to pay by tapping my PIN whilst wearing one of their disposable gloves.
Last Friday, the manager took orders and asked if I don’t use contactless on principle, so I answered “Yes”. He said local Environmental Health officials are instructing businesses to reopen by following his method of accepting money. That is, local firms are now encouraged not to accept any cash, thus avoiding the risk of Covid-19 virus, and move entirely to payments enabled by a digital personal number – as foretold in Revelation 13!
2nd GOD-INCIDENCE
That evening Neil Mackereth emailed me a new article in which he quotes those verses in connection with a vaccination programme against the Covid-19 virus. The pertinent part coinciding with what I’d heard that morning, reads:
“Everyone will be encouraged to have the vaccination and, for seemingly very sensible reasons, to have an identifying mark (like a tattoo) to show their immunity.
In the early stages of “normalisation”, retail outlets (shops, pubs, restaurants etc.) will be able to relax social distancing restrictions, for those who can show that they have been vaccinated (i.e. have the mark of immunity)…I am not suggesting that it will be inappropriate to have the vaccination. However, if it is conditional on having some sort of mark, great care will be needed in assessing the appropriateness, in light of God’s guidance on the subject. (see Revelation 13:16-18).”
3rd GOD-INCIDENCE
Also, on Friday my phone alerted me to a YouTube video prophet Tomi Arayomi had issued the previous day in which he divulges a dream about lockdown of markets relating to the implantation of radio-frequency identification (RFID) micro-chips. He also brings an important prophetic word for the Church in these days.
In my humble opinion this video is essential viewing! It is most important that we know about such matters because they are directly relevant to End-Times and clearly indicate we’re now there..!!
No wonder I’m ‘God-smacked’ over what the Lord brought to my attention 7 days ago!
“By the mouth of two or three witnesses the matter shall be established” (Deuteronomy 19:15)
‘Two or three prophets should speak, and the others should weigh carefully what is said’ (1 Corinthians 14:29)
NOW, 4 YEARS LATER (11 April 2024)
BUYING BY FACIAL RECOGNITION PLUS WAVING HAND = IMPLEMENTATION OF Rev 13’s ‘MARK OF THE BEAST’

Richard's Watch 
Richard do you recall these dreams and visions
The Mark
I have seen this vision for approximately 2 days now so I am going ot post it now. In the vision I see a checkout line in a grocery store. This in and of itself is no big deal. However, what I see beyond that is. Like I said, I saw people standing in line waiting to purchase groceries but they were not doing so with credit cards, debit cards, or cash. They were waving the back of their right hand over a scanner in order to pay for their groceries. In addition, I saw military personnel with machine guns present as watching over what was going on. It almost seemed like a ration line you would see in a soup kitchen except that this was a store and groceries were being purchased. However, it could too mean that the food supply was being controlled and it was being rationed. It is no coincidence that this was a grocery store in the vision as food is a basic necessity and one where, if you were not a Christian and did not know God as your provider, you would think nothing of getting the mark.
I had a dream in 2011 and then it repeated in 2014 that goes along with the above vision.
I had a dream 02/10/2014 and in this dream I was in some kind of meeting in a church. We were all sitting at tables. In the dream there was a pastor, who I recognized, talking and passing out cards each having a word on it which we were supposed to give a definition for. I do not remember the word I was given, however, I do remember that it had to do with food and I remembered a dream I had back in April of 2011.
Here is the dream from 2011
I had a very frightening dream Monday, April 25, 2011 and the Lord basically told my wife the same thing the following morning. In my dream, I was in a very large grocery store, something like a Costco, and there was an overabundance of food everywhere the eye could see. And then I felt the Lord say that there is a very severe famine coming that will test the faith of all believers.If you remember the 70′s when Gas was rationed and you had to go get gas on the day assigned to you according to your license plate number so will it be in this famine. Money will not be in short supply, food will. Many believers’ stomachs rather than their faith will dictate their actions in this time. This I believe is how the mark will take hold. Money is not the issue here. If you remember in revelation no one could buy or sell without the mark When the shelves are empty, we must realize that God, and not our money or jobs is our ultimate provider. I believe that right now is a time of abundance but as in Pharaoh’s dream that Joseph Interpreted for him, there were years of abundance followed by years of famine in which the abundance was quickly forgotten.This is why the house church is so important. Acts 2 will begin to play out here, i believe.
All the believers kept meeting together, and they shared everything with each other. From time to time, they sold their property and other possessions and distributed the money to anyone who needed it. The believers had a single purpose and went to the temple every day. They were joyful and humble as they ate at each others homes and shared their food.
When I was done sharing this dream, the pastor looked very uncomfortable and wished that I had never said anything. I find that it’s no coincidence that I was given a card with a word having to do with food on it. I also find that being that the dream was repeated a second time means that there is a sense of urgency to it and a warning that should be headed. What comes to mind here is the following:
And since the dream was repeated to Pharaoh twice, it is because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.
(Gen 41:32)
One thing needs to be kept in mind here. In 2nd Thessalonians it says that the gathering together of the saints with Jesus will not occur until there is a great falling away and the son of perdition be revealed.What a better way to get someone to break than to deprive them of food and water, How much tribulation we will experience before Jesus comes for His bride is unknown. Thessalonians says we were not appointed to suffer wrath but Jesus Himself told us that in this world you will have tribulation.Tribulation differs from wrath.
(1Th 5:9) For God has not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
(2Th 2:1) Now we beseech you, my brothers, with regard to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him,
(2Th 2:2) that you should not be soon shaken in mind or troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word or letter, as through us, as if the Day of Christ is at hand.
(2Th 2:3) Let not anyone deceive you by any means. For that Day shall not come unless there first comes a falling away, and the man of sin shall be revealed, the son of perdition,
(2Th 2:4) who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, setting himself forth, that he is God

I recall the later one Tony and over the last year seen news items of people using nothing but their electronically marked (tattooed?) hand to pay and exit a store!

It’s probably because most are well and truly hooked into the 1-eyed phone god in making payments instead of using cash. Hence my ‘update’ inclusion of item in nation where the dragon reigns!
