Prayer Thots on Rev 20 (Oct 11)

God Promises Victory Over Evil

Following the catastrophic
judgments of the seven vials,
John sees the doom of Babylon.
And a great multitude sings but
praises to God in anticipation of
the marriage supper of the Lamb.
A white horse emerges, mounted
by the King of Kings who destroys
the beast and the false prophet..
setting the stage for the coming
of a new heaven and new earth.
Once again God and his people
live in intimate fellowship. Amen.

Lord, You Triumph Over Evil:
Then I saw an angel coming down
from heaven with the key to the
bottomless pit and a heavy chain
in his hand. He seized the dragon..
who is the devil and bound him
in chains (Rev 20:1-2). The Devil
who betrayed them was thrown into
the lake of fire… joining the beast
and the false prophets. There they
will be tormented forever & ever.
And I saw a great white throne,
and I saw the one who was
sitting on it (v10-11). Amen.

Father God, I give you all the praise
because you are still on the throne
and have already overcome the
enemy. Grant me courage and
a strong heart to keep pressing
on, to fix my eyes on Christ Jesus
and to rejoice in You, knowing
that You Triumph Over Evil and
that U make All Things New. Amen

Sovereign God, You are on the
throne. You have already overcome
the enemy and you are the victor.
Living in the end times, may I
spend less time worrying about
a defeated enemy and more time
concerned about those who need
the truth. Help me remember
that time is limited and how I play
the game of life is critical. Amen.

Lord, the revelation on end times
is both a warning to Christians
who have grown apathetic and
an encouragement to those who
are faithfully enduring struggles.
It reassures us that good will
triumph over evil, gives us hope
as we face difficulties & guides us
when we’re wavering in our faith.
Lord, we praise You for being in
control & rejoice that U reign. Amen
