Previous Day: A New Revelation of Jesus
God’s primary concern in history is the church. In Titus 2 we learn that God wants to present to Himself “His own special people, zealous for good works” (verse 14). That is where the focus of the Lord begins—not on the nations, not on the politicians, not on the military commanders, but on His church. We are first in the list of His concerns. If you do not take hold of that—and believe it—you will be easily frightened.
Repent
In Revelation, Jesus dictates messages to be delivered to the seven churches. To five of the churches Jesus says, “I know your works.” That is significant. It is not what we say, it is what we do that counts. Also, to five of the seven churches His first commandment was to repent. From what I know of contemporary churches, I would say the ratio would not be any lower.
Remember, repentance is the key to everything else. You can seek and call out for the blessings of God, but they will never really come your way because the first condition is repentance. I suggest that if you are struggling with problems in your Christian experience, ask yourself if you have truly repented. Turn totally from everything displeasing to God and yield yourself to Him in unconditional surrender.
Overcome
The messages to the churches in Revelation contain various main elements—commendation, praise for what is good, correction where things are going wrong, warning of judgment that may follow, and a promise. But notice that the promises are given only to one kind of person: to him who overcomes. I cannot find any promises in the New Testament to those who do not overcome.
In Romans 12:21 Paul says,
“Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.” There are only two options: to overcome or to be overcome. And the only thing power ful enough to overcome evil is good. At the end of the book of Revelation God Himself speaks and says, “He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son” (Revelation 21:7).
“Heavenly Father and Almighty God, you are good and your will is perfect. I want your light and love to shine through me. The world needs to see You, not me. Show me where I seek my own pleasures instead of your will and help me to repent. I want to overcome evil, starting in my own life, and become an overcomer. Amen.”
Next Day: Perspective From The Throne
Moving On
The Fear of God is missing on a Global level, God I pray that Your Will Be Done. I beseech thee through fervent prayer, Governed by The Holy Spirit, for forgiveness of the sinful acts of this world, for many know not what they do.
Thank You Heavenly Father for Your Grace, Mercy and Blessings that You bestow upon us each day.
I pray for Your Divine Intervention Governed by The Holy Spirit to Instill The Fear of God throughout the earth. In Jesus name.
Thank You Heavenly Father for choosing me out of the many who are called, to be your vessel, a living sacrifice, dethroning self, and being Governed by The Holy Spirit to do Your Will through acts of Travailing and Intercessory Prayer.
I pray for the hastening of the return of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I pray for Your Divine Intervention to help us to meet your Will according to Matthew 24:14 to preach the gospel in all nations, (not by might, not by power but by Your Spirit God). In Jesus’ name.
Be watchful and pray!!!
THE EARTH IS TRAVAILING TOO!!!
(Evident by all the natural disasters that are taking place throughout the world and their frequency is intensifying.)
