Cryptocurrency, stocks down but the Lord speaks: Name Number

I had already started my day and had gotten to where I was searching for news on my crypto stocks. As I was doing this I heard two words "Name Number" and as I always do when given a word or up to about 4 words sometimes I will hear, I go to scriptures and put then the two words I heard and do a bible search for the words together. I have my own Bible software so I set it to do just what I heard those two words. They were not plural both were singular words. There were just 3 scriptures as listed below:

1Ki 18:31 And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of the LORD came, saying, Israel shall be thy name:

Re 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Re 15:2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.

I found it interesting as the total number of our family is 12, but seeing the first verse in Kings the verses that comes to me is this:

Luke 19:38-40 (KJV) Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest. And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples. And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out. (Jew and Gentile being stones)

Revelation 2:17 (KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.

The next verse Re 13:17 is one we all hear about this the verse prior to it:

Revelation 13:16 (KJV) And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

Then excited I was to see Re 15:2 and see that we had gotten the victory over the beast, and I wondered if this was why the Lord was having me to get into understanding cryptocurrency. I am in my seventies and retired we have been blessed and live fine, I didn't need to be a millionaire I don't really have an interest in money, just being able to live comfortably was a blessing. Then as I posted and told on my about page here my son had gotten involved in cryptocurrency.

Was the Lord going to use crypto to feed His people?

Well this is what I had wondered and did go out to find out a bit more of the purchasing power of crypto and stores and how it could be used. I found a great long article called Can You Pay for Groceries with Cryptocurrency? it is long and has adds on the page but worth reading. The other thing I noticed within the article as you could purchase gift cards using it to keep it private even more. Kroger mentioned in the article even does have a gas station.

I have prayerfully taken these things to the Lord and hope you do also to see what He says more about it...as I wondered if gift cards never expire that maybe I could even buy gift cards myself for my sons families etc. Something more for me to look into. I need to also see maybe if there are gift cards for things like utilities and water also. I have some investigation to do for sure.

So I have to take even the fact they point out gift cards to the food and gas maybe it is that I was to see in this search also as I pray for my sons and grandchildren not near as a end times watcher of things as I always have been. Take it to the Lord in prayer.
