He's Given a Revelation...

Read Revelation 1:1-3

End times prophecy is probably one of those Biblical subjects many would like to know more about but are not quite sure how to go about learning.  Well we're going to engage in a few devotions to help walk through some of the key elements of Revelation.  For this week - take a quick look at Revelation 1:1-3.

We're told this revelation comes from Jesus and God gave it to show his servants what events are going to happen in the end times.  He presented this revelation to his servant John through an angel and John faithfully reported everything he saw.  Now this is just my guess but I'm not so sure John understood everything he saw but he reported everything he saw faithfully. 

Verse 3 tells us whoever reads the words of this prophecy to the church will be blessed if they listen and obey the message.  So as we approach this message we should pray God will help us to hear clearly and obey what we're told to obey.

Understanding end times prophecy reminds us that:
  • God is sovereign
  • God is good
  • Motivates us to holy living
  • Helps us establish proper priorities
  • Gives us hope
 Keep these in mind as we continue our Living Hope Devotional series in Revelation.
