Rev 12: 15-17



Rev 12:15 So the serpent spewed water out of his mouth like a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood.


Fore told by Daniel

Daniel 9:26 "And after the sixty-two weeks Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself;  ---  And the people of the prince who is to come Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end of it shall be with a flood, And till the end of the war desolations are determined.



Meaning of flood = Ungodly things , waves = sorrow
2 Sam 22:5 “ When the waves of death surrounded me, The floods of ungodliness made me afraid.
Psalms 18:4 The pangs (Sarrows) of death surrounded me, And the floods of ungodliness made me afraid.
(rq; 69:2) Mokhd cisapy; mkpo;e;jpUf;fpNwd;@ epw;f epiyapy;iy> epiyahj [yj;jpy; Mope;jpUf;fpNwd;> nts;sq;fs; vd;Nky; Guz;LNghfpwJ.
        I sink in deep mire, where  there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.
Psalms 69:1 Save me, O God! For the waters have come up to my neck.
Psalms 69:2 I sink in deep mire, Where there is no standing; I have come into deep waters, Where the floods overflow me.


Flood sudden entry

1)  Isaiah 59:19 When the enemy shall come in like a flood
2)  Mathew 24:37        But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
Mathew 24:38       For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,


Rev 12:16 But the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the flood which the dragon had spewed out of his mouth.


Earth
The term is used in two widely-different senses:
(1) for the material of which the earths surface is composed;
(2) as the name of the planet on which man dwells.
1) God create heaven and earth (Gen 1:1). Initially it was empty and unformed (Gen 1:2), here the earth mentioning he material or surface. In bible many place we can see this earth was denoted as an ordinary material. We no need get into it
Exodus 9:16 But indeed for this purpose I have raised you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be declared in all the earth.

Here His name not declaring the material earth. This means His name be declared who dwelling on the earth.
Deuteronomy 32: 1 "Give ear, O heavens, and I will speak; And hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.
How the earth hear the word of God if it mentioned as material. So this all mentioned who dwell on the earth

In the same way the below verses are all mentioned the people who dwell on the earth not the material earth.
1 Chronicles 16: 14 He is the LORD our God; His judgments are in all the earth.
1 Chronicles 16:31 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; And let them say among the nations, "The LORD reigns."

1 Chronicles 16: 33 Then the trees of the woods shall rejoice before the LORD, For He is coming to judge the earth.
Psalms 8: 9 O LORD, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth!
Psalms 76:9 When God arose to judgment, To deliver all the oppressed of the earth.
Micah 1: 2 Hear, all you peoples! Listen, O earth, and all that is in it! Let the Lord GOD be a witness against you, The Lord from His holy temple.
Isaiah 14:7 The whole earth is at rest and quiet; They break forth into singing.

We can understand one thing from these verses this word earth is not covering every people who dwelling on the earth. It is mentioning who belongs to God. In the earth there are many people where worshiping the pagan gods. But our Load of Host talking to His own people. His own people means number one is Israelites and number two is New Testament church who accept Lord and Savior Jesus Christ their own Savior. So here in this verse John told earth is nothing but the church. The earth swallowed the water means the church people helped the Israelites in the trouble period.

Rev 12:17 And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the      rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Because of church helped the Israelites the serpent that means the antichrist and his supporters got more angry  against the woman that means Israelites.

And the dragon was enraged with the woman

(vNu 46:7) gputhfk;Nghy; Guz;LtUfpw ,td; ahh;? miyfs; Nkhjpabf;fpw ejpfs;Nghy; vOk;gptUfpw ,td; ahh;?
        Who  is this  that cometh up as a flood, whose waters are moved as the rivers?
(vNu 46:8) vfpg;jpaNd gputhfj;ijg;Nghy; Guz;LtUfpwhd;> mtNd miyfs; Nkhjp abf;fpw ejpfs;Nghy vOk;gptUfpwhd;@ ehd; Ngha;> Njrj;ij %b> efuj;ijAk; mjpy; FbapUf;fpwth;fisAk; mopg;Ngd; vd;whd;.
Jermiah 46:7          " Who is this coming up like a flood, Whose waters move like the rivers?
Jermiah 46:8 Egypt rises up like a flood, And its waters move like the rivers; And he says, 'I will go up and cover the earth, I will destroy the city and its inhabitants.'

Here Egypt is supporters of antichrist. Even we can see book of zac 14:2  tells

Zac. 14:2   For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem; The city shall be taken, The houses rifled, And the women ravished. Half of the city shall go into captivity, But the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

Flood nothing can do

Psalms 32:5 I acknowledged my sin to You, And my iniquity I have not hidden. I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the LORD," And You forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah
Psalms 32:6 For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray to You In a time when You may be found; Surely in a flood of great waters They shall not come near him.
Psalms 32:7 You are my hiding place; You shall preserve me from trouble; You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah
 (rq; 32:6) ,jw;fhfr; rfhaq;fpilf;Fq; fhyj;jpy; gf;jpAs;stndtDk; ck;ik Nehf;fp tpz;zg;gQ;nra;thd;@ mg;nghOJ kpFe;j [yg;gputhfk; te;jhYk; mJ mtid mZfhJ.

Even the serpent fight with woman he not able to overcome it. So he turn his angriness to the offspring that means John mentioned who obey God’s word and who giving the wittiness to Jesus Christ he start persecuting them.

Revelation 12 : 13,14



Revelation 12 : 13,14
13    Now when the dragon saw that he had been cast to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male Child.
14         But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and half a time, from the presence of the serpent.

“Now when the dragon saw that he had been cast to the earth”
Here the phrase “saw that” means the dragon realize his position.
1.      He lost the battle.
2.       He lost his position in heaven completely.
a.      For accusing the children of God he had access to go to heaven. Because without God’s permission he can’t touch the God’s children, now that also he lost. Because of that Rev.  12:12 tells “having great wrath”
 “ he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male Child.”
Now the dragon starts to persecute the Israel (woman). By sprituraly two reason
1.      He was very anger Rev. 12:12
2.      He got full freedom to do any thing. Here after he no need to wait God’s permission.
Now we see how the drag will persecute.
1.      Now Jews community is not accept the Lord Jesus Christ is a saviour. Still they expecting messiah. So Satan, understanding the promises of Christ made to Israel sees his last opportunity to prevent his judgment by destroying Israel.
Christ, declared before His crucifixion he would not return until Israel acknowledged Him as their Messiah.
Matthew 23:37-39
37 "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing!
38 "See! Your house is left to you desolate;
39 "for I say to you, you shall see Me no more till you say, 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!' "

In reality how the satan will persecute the Israel ?
This attempt is pictured by John, as the Dragon persecuting the women.
The dragon who has seven heads and ten crowns, is the final human kingdom, pictured as a dragon. Satan following his fall from Heaven, takes the reigns of power at the middle of the tribulation to pursue Israel.  

“But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place”
Spiritually if we see the statement we can understand that, the woman needs to escape from the satans hand. Her own strength she can’t do it. She needs strength. Here John mentioned “the woman was given two wings of a great eagle”, the wings of a great eagle means the strength of the LORD. In this situation also God will not leave his own children so He giving His own strength.

We can read this in Isaiah 40:31
But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with
wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.

Here we can see this verse is telling “those who wait on the LORD”, in the end time the Israelites people eyes will be open and will know that Lord Jesus is the real Messiah. When their eyes will open, when the satan doing the abomination in the temple. 
We can read this from the book of Daniel

Daniel 9: 27 Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week; But in the middle of the week He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate, Even until the consummation, which is determined, Is poured out on the desolate."
(jhdp 9:27) mth; xU thuksTk; mNefUf;F cld;gbf;ifia cWjpg;gLj;jp> me;j thuk; ghjp nrd;wNghJ gypiaAk; fhzpf;ifiaAk; xopag;gz;Zthh;@ mUtUg;ghd nrl;ilfNshNlh ghohf;Ffpwtd; te;J ,wq;Fthd;> eph;zapf;fg;gl;bUf;fpw eph;%yk; ghohf;Ffpwtd;Nky; jPUkl;Lk; nrhhpAk; vd;whd;.


Daniel 11:31 And forces shall be mustered by him, and they shall defile the sanctuary fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, and place there the abomination of desolation.

(jhdp 11:31) MdhYk; mtdplj;jpypUe;J Gwg;gl;lNridfs; vOk;gp> muzhd ghpRj;j ];jyj;ijg; ghpRj;jf; Fiyr;ryhf;fp> md;whlgypia ePf;fp> ghohf;Fk; mUtUg;ig mq;Nf itg;ghh;fs;.

Daniel 12:11 "And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
(jhdp 12:11) md;whlgyp ePf;fg;gl;L> ghohf;Fk; mUtUg;G ];jhgpf;fg;gLq;fhyKjy; Mapuj;jpUE}w;Wj; njhz;Z}Wehs; nry;Yk;.

After the abomination the Israelites eyes will be open and they will stand for the Christ till their end.  Like this God will help to deliver the His people from satans hand, how he deliver the israelites from Egyptian king

Exodus 19:4 “You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles wings and brought you to Myself”.


that she might fly into the wilderness to her place


We already saw about the word “wilderness“

Colossians 1:13 tells “delivered us from the power of darkness”. So for the Israelites where lived in darkness. Now their eyes was opened.

As per 2 peter 1:4 now the Israelite people was “partakers of the divine nature”, that means they accept the Lord Jesus Christ and live for Christ, that is john here mentioned here “to her place” that means they came to right place.

“where she is nourished”
During the tribulation time the God’s people will not get anything why because revelation 13:16 & 17 tells that
Rev 13:16   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,
Rev 13:17   and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
This this kind of situation how you get food. To live in the tribulation time we need eagle’s wings(strength) to live. How our God feed to Israelites in the wilderness. God Himself told in Deuteronomy 32: 11 & 12…

Due 32:11 As an eagle stirs up its nest, Hovers over its young, Spreading out its wings, taking them up, Carrying them on its wings,
Due 32:12 So the LORD alone led him, And there was no foreign god with him.
13    " He made him ride in the heights of the earth, That he might eat the produce of the fields; He made him draw honey from the rock, And oil from the flinty rock;
14    Curds from the cattle, and milk of the flock, With fat of lambs; And rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, With the choicest wheat; And you drank wine, the blood of the grapes.

        As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings:
(cgh 32:12) fh;j;jh; xUtNu mtid topelj;jpdhh;@ me;epa Njtd; mtNuhNl ,Ue;jjpy;iy.


“a time and times and half a time, from the presence of the serpent”
Here John told the time line of wilderness life. Who waits up to end they will be saved.

Daniel 12: 12 Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.
Daniel 12: 13 "But you, go your way till the end; for you shall rest, and will arise to your inheritance at the end of the days."

Even Lord Jesus Christ mentioned in Matthew 24:13

  Matthew 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved
