Revelation 12

The woman is the nation of Israel who gives birth after the birth pains (Rev 12:2). Then she is sheltered in the wilderness for 1260 days. Note that she gives birth to a male child or the spiritual 144,000. Then during Daniel’s 70th week the Holy Spirit with its power is withdrawn from the Earth for 1290 days and God’s punishments are being delivered by the angels and the woman (physical 144,000) is sheltered for 1260 days from the beast. From Micah 5:3 “Therefore he shall give them up until the time when she who is in labor has given birth; then the rest of his brothers (144,000) shall return to the people of Israel (basically the 144,000 shall realize they are Israelites).”

Once the Holy Spirit is withdrawn from Earth war starts in heaven and Michael throws Satan down. Note this conforms with Daniel 12:1 “And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which stands for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.” Once the Holy Spirit withdraws angels take over delivery of God’s orders to earth and further into the universe.

Dragon attacks the 144,000 who are sheltered for 1260 days and represent the woman or physical 144,000. Once the dragon is defeated in this purpose, it goes to war against the rest of the Israeli saints on earth who at this time have a choice – either accept the mark of the beast or die. This follows from Revelation 12:17 “Went of to make war with the rest of her offspring, on those who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus.” Basically, these are Israeli people that have repented and have faith in Jesus Christ as the Messiah.

Revelation 13

Sea represents lawlessness. Beast has all the characteristics of the beast from Daniel 2, who has seven heads (1. Babylon, 2. Persia, 3-6. Alexander the Great with 4 empires and after, 7. Roman Empire). The seventh had a mortal wound that was healed representing a revival of Roman Empire. Ten horns are the ten kingdoms/blocks supporting the Roman Empire in the later days or the European Union.

Revelation 14

The 144,000 redeemed from the earth stand with Christ in Mount Zion. Note that the 144,000 are sheltered for 1335 days in between their sealing and the seventh trumpet. From Daniel 12:12 “Blessed is he that waits and arrives at the 1335 days.”

Revelation 15-22

One of the key points is the judgement of Babylonian church sitting upon seven heads with ten horns. Five fallen kings are (at the time of John witnessing the vision) Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius and Nero. The one that is refers to Vespasian and note that Titus his son conquered Rome who became emperor later. Basically, the seventh emperor is still to come from the perspective of John and our perspective too. It is also to be noted that the whore has its foundations upon pagan roots and represents the official religions springing from the Holy Roman Empire. From Proverbs 7:10 “And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of a harlot, and subtil of heart”, and from Proverbs 7:19 “For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey”. The goodman is Jesus Christ and the harlot church has betrayed him with her doctrines and appointments of clergy and man-made institutions. From Proverbs 7:27 “Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.”
 
For those of you that have read this far, I would like to state that the seven vials are concurrent with the seven trumpets. Then it all integrates easily.

Also, in case you have been wondering what the daily burnt offering refers to the answer is in the design of the Solomonic temple which is a shadow of what's in heaven. The sanctuary was the main chamber containing the seven branched candlestick, golden altar of incense and table of show bread. Anyway, in Revelation 8:3 we have "And another angel came and stood at the altar with a golden censer, and he was given much incense to offer with the prayers of all saints on the golden altar before the throne. And the smoke of the incense with the prayers of the saints, rose before God from the hand of the angel." Now from Revelation 15:8 "And the sanctuary was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from his power, and no one could enter the sanctuary until the seven plagues of the seven angels were finished."

It follows that for 1290 days from Daniel 12:12 no one is allowed to enter the sanctuary and hence the regular burnt offering shall cease in heaven.

I hope this clarifies things in case you have had questions. From Isaiah 28:21 "For the Lord will rise up as on Mount Perazim; as in the valley of Gibeon he will be roused; to do his deed - strange is his deed! and to work his work - alien is his work!"
