“These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.”
Revelation 14:4 KJV
As John the beloved disciple saw, “No one could learn that song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed and who have not defiled themselves with women, for they are virgins, and they join themselves to the Lamb wherever He goes. They have been purchased from humanity and brought forth as the firstfruits for God and the Lamb.” These virgins are those who like Mary the virgin, are pure, obedient and willing to do the will of God and will bring forth an expression of Christ to the earth. They are not like the daughters of the harlot of Babylon with its false religious system. They are the first parts of the harvest of Christ’s life within the believer. Set apart for God and the Lamb, they become examples for all others to follow. Paul was given this revelation, “You need to know that God’s passion is burning inside me for you, because, like a loving father, I have pledged your hand in marriage to Christ, your true Bridegroom. I’ve also promised that I would present His fiancée to Him as a pure virgin bride.” Let’s yield ourselves to the Holy Spirit to be guided into this amazing Truth of preparing ourselves as the bride of Christ. Amen!
