Woman on the Beast
I was having dinner with Rhema and Yohanen in a nice Western Restaurant (it was our Anniversary Dinner) and Beyonce's concert was being played on the TV monitor. Rhema and I talked a bit about the lady on the screen. I couldn't help but make a passing remark to Rhema. Beyonce was dress out to 'kill'. Saw this image of a young man in the concert, all taken in awe of her. It's like him telling, "i want you". Didn't see much after that. But, a passage came to mine about the woman on the Beast in Revelation 17: 3 - 4. (The woman dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls). In a next glimpse, i saw this huge audiance filled with people....and was reminded of the multitudes that was led astray by the woman on the Beast.
Now, i am not saying that Beyonce is the person mentioned in Revelation 17. But, i am thinking this is what it would be like in the fulfillment of the prophecy in Rev. 17. Of course, Beyonce is only trying to put on a show that the people would like to see. But, in doing so she had fallen into the devil's trap of enticing people into lust of the flesh. The more i think about it, the more i realise why the devil wants to cause young man and woman to sell themselves to lust. What better way to desecrate the temple of the Holy Spirit than this?
I feel sad for Beyonce Giselle Knowles. I remember hearing that the name "Destiny Child", the group that she belonged to got its name from the Book of Isaiah. The groups members come for a strong Christian background. I even remembered that at the formation of their group, they prayed and seek the Lord for direction. It is sad to see where Beyonce is today. I am sure, it must have grieved God's heart.
