Praying thro Revelation (Sep 23)

Worshipping God & Seven Seals
(Prayer Walk thro Rev 4-7)

John describes visions depicting
activities in heaven and on earth.
God enthroned, holds a scroll
which is sealed with seven seals.
No one is found worthy to break
the seals and reveal the contents
of the scroll except Lion of Judah.
As the first six seals are broken,
calamities break forth upon the
earth involving warfare, famine,
death, earthquakes and heavenly
disturbances. The kings of earth
know too well the explanation of it
all. For the great day of his wrath is
come & who shall be able to stand?

Dear Lord, we praise for being
All Holy and Almighty and that
You will defeat all evil in the end.
Thanks that You have good plans
not only in the future but also now.
And we bow down in Worship;
help us as we Serve You; and
help us to Reign With You.
In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.

Lord, we bow down in Worship:
The twenty-four elders fall down
and worship the one who lives
forever and ever. And they lay
their crowns before the throne
and say: You are worthy, O Lord
our God, to receive glory and
honor & power. For You created
everything, and it is for your
pleasure that they exist and
were created (Rev 4:10-11).
Lord, thank you for revealing
Your glory being celebrated
in heaven. You are worthy; for
it is for You and because of You
that all things exist. Reveal to us
more glimpses of how infinite,
limitless and majestic You are
so that Your glory is our focus.
Draw us into worship. And I lay
my crowns before you Lord –
all that I’ve done or accomplished
all that I am, I give to You. Amen.

Lord, we want to Reign With You:
The 24 elders fell down before the
Lamb… And they sang a new song:
You are worthy to take the scroll,
and to open its seals; For You were
slain, and have redeemed us to God
by Your blood… And have made us
kings and priests to our God; and
we shall reign on the earth… Then
I heard the voice of many angels
around the throne with a loud voice:
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
to receive power… and honor and
glory and blessing (Rev 5:8-12).
Lord, your Word says we are
already a royal priesthood, with
authority to pray and implement
Your mission in this current age.
Increase our Faith that we are
inhabited by the God of the
universe & carry Your presence.
Lord, it’s hard to fathom how
I can reign with You. But I want to
walk in the authority You offer in
this age. So show me how. Amen.

Lord, we purpose to Serve You:
They stand in front of God’s throne
and serve Him day and night in
His temple. And He who sits on
the throne will give them shelter.
They will never again be hungry
or thirsty; they will never be
scorched by the heat of the sun.
For the Lamb on the throne will
be their Shepherd. He will lead
them to springs of life-giving water
And God will wipe every tear
from their eyes (Rev 7:15-17).
Lord, trust that the promise that
You God will wipe out every tear
is not just for the Great Tribulation.
For the compassionate God we
will see in Christ has the same
compassion for us. No matter
what pain or disappointment we
encounter, Your caring is ever
unlimited. And as we turn to You,
U will also wipe away the tears from
our eyes; not just in our heavenly
future but here and now. Amen.
