“THE REVELATION FROM JESUS CHRIST, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place…Blessed is the one WHO READS aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those WHO HEAR IT AND TAKE TO HEART WHAT IS WRITTEN IN IT, because the time is near.” (Rev. 1:1-3)
The book of Revelation is an apocryphal letter, it relies on visions, symbols, and Old Testament references to reveal the final fulfillment of God’s promise given to Abraham in Genesis. The book is not a secret code that allows believers to decipher the timeline of Jesus’s return, it is the revealing of God’s plan for the end times.
“This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and THEN THE END WILL COME.” (Matt. 24:14)
I write these devotions each morning and send them ALL OVER THE WORLD from my computer and cell phone! Just saying…
“…you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, KEEP YOURSELVES IN THE LOVE OF GOD, waiting anxiously for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life.” (Jude 1:20-21)
As I earnestly seek the Lord each day for what He would have me to write, it has become clear to me that the Lord is admonishing us to be ready for His return so, lets be anxiously awaiting and keeping ourselves in God’s love…
LIFT UP YOUR EYES AND LOOK…
