Adoring God In Rev 20 (Dec 27)

God Promises Victory Over Evil

Following judgments of the 7 vials,
John sees the doom of Babylon.
And a great multitude sings praises
ahead of the marriage 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 a new heaven
and new earth, where God and His
people live in intimate fellowship.

Lord, we’ll Be Ready for Judgment:
Then I saw an angel…with the key
to the bottomless pit…He seized
the dragon who is the devil & bound
him for a thousand years(Rev20:1-2)
The Devil who betrayed them was
thrown into the lake of fire… joining
the beast and the false prophets…
And I saw a great white throne, and
I saw the One…sitting on it (v10-11).
I saw the dead… standing before
God’s throne. And the books were
opened, including Book of Life.
And the dead were judged according
to their works, by the things which
were written in the books (v12).

Lord, the revelation on end times
reassures us good will ultimately
triumph over evil and gives us hope
when faithfully enduring struggles
though we may be wavering in faith.
Grant us Lord the courage to keep
pressing on & fix our eyes on Christ.
And we rejoice, knowing You are in
control & that You Triumph Over Evil
In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.

Lord, You are sovereignly on the
throne, You have already overcome
the enemy and You are the victor.
Living in the end times, help me
spend less time worrying about
a defeated enemy; and more time
regarding those who need the truth.
Help me Lord remember that time
is limited and help me to lead life
in a way to make a difference. Amen.

Lord, I pray in faith that when
You open the books, what You find
will not bring condemnation but
will be confirmation that my dear
friends and loved ones are Yours.
I pray that it will not be a record
of their fleshly works, but only of
the righteousness of Christ; both
imputed by grace and imparted
through the grace of the Spirit’s
sanctifying power. In His name,Amen
