This article will be about Aries, the 8th sign of the Zodiac. It will tell the story of how Jesus rescues His Bride, the Church, and breaks her chains of slavery to sin by becoming obedient to the Father, even to death on a cross. In the process, He will also destroy the devil and all his evil works. He also will become the final deliverer for Israel as they are chased into the wilderness by the devil after he is thrown down from the heavens to the earth in Revelation 12. I offer next the video on Aries –

There is a scripture which explains the excitement that should be felt in the Body of Christ at the Sign of Aries  – “which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.” – Eph. 1:20-23.

In case you hadn’t noted, the major Signs of the Zodiac are 12 but they are also grouped in three groups of four each. The first group of four; Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, and Sagittarius tell of the work of Jesus and His redemption for mankind and His coming triumph over the enemy Satan. The second group; Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, and Aries describe the fruit of His labors – the Church. The last four; Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, and Leo will describe God’s righteous judgement and final plan for man.

Ever since September of 2017 I have felt that we are entering the last of the last days. September 23 rd. was the date that the heavenly sign of Virgo was completed according to Revelation 12:1-2. And Jupiter, the King Planet, left her womb on its way to the constellation Taurus, where it arrives on August 13, 2024. This represents one of two possible things: 1) reminding us that Jesus was born of the virgin and is ascended to the throne of Judgement, or 2) someone else, like Jesus, who is destined to reign and rule with Jesus coming forth – His Bride. The constellation Gemini is all about this scenario. Anyway, when Jupiter reaches Taurus, it will meet the Planet Mars between the horns of Taurus. Now the Hebrew name for Taurus is Shur, which means the coming Judge. And the Hebrew name for Mars is Ma-Adim, which means the Son of Man. Also, Taurus contains a star cluster known as the Pleiades which means Congregation. So, its meaning at that time will be “The Son of Man comes with His Congregation to Judge the earth”.

This will set off a whole chain of events which are described in Revelation 12. There will be war in heaven and Michael and his angels will defeat the devil and his angels and the devil will be thrown to the earth. The devil will then attack Israel defeating her and Israel will flee into a place called “the wilderness” for 3½ years. It will be a place known for its sheepfolds (Bozrah), which is in Edom to the south of the Dead Sea. There Jesus will come to “break” Israel out of its sheepfolds. This story is all foretold in Micah 2:12-13, Isaiah 34:5-6, Isaiah 63:1. and Rev. 19:13.

“I will surely assemble all of you, O Jacob, I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together like sheep of the fold, (Bozrah) Like a flock in the midst of their pasture; They shall make a loud noise because of so many people.” – Micah 2:12

Have you ever wondered where Jesus got the blood on His robe when He rides forth from heaven?

“Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war. His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself. He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.” – Rev. 19:11-14

The answer is found in Isaiah 63 –

“Who is this who comes from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah, This One who is glorious in His apparel, Traveling in the greatness of His strength? — “I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.” Why is Your apparel red, And Your garments like one who treads in the winepress? “I have trodden the winepress alone, and from the peoples no one was with Me. For I have trodden them in My anger and trampled them in My fury; Their blood is sprinkled upon My garments, And I have stained all My robes. For the day of vengeance is in My heart, And the year of My redeemed has come.” – Isa. 63:1-4

It will end with the armies of God, with the resurrected saints, and those raptured, and Israel going to Armageddon to destroy the devil and those who follow him. What a glorious ending that will be!
