In this uncertain world where we live, there is only One Who is Faithful and True. People will let us down. We will face loss in this world. We will never lose. He has defeated the enemy. He showed John a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne. Rev 22:1. The river of life here on earth is muddied, cursed. There will be no more curse. One Day Soon. So, keep this book open. It will affect your eternity. To those who are walking with God, this book is alive and active. It will confirm, strengthen, encourage, and sanctify those who know Him and keep it.
As we close Revelation, may we never think that what is dead in our lives will count, will save, will carry. It won't. There is no middle ground. Jesus Christ is the center of all. This Word will penetrate us, even to dividing soul and spirit. It will judge the thoughts and attitudes of our hearts. Heb 4:12. May we not leave this year without accepting the gracious invitation of The First and The Last. Let's earnestly thirst after greater measures of the gracious influences and His gracious presence. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
We raise our cups this New Year's eve to our new friends and old friends. We'll take a cup of kindness yet, for Auld Lang Syne. And when Revelations 20 - 22 happens, we'll raise our toast with Adam and Eve in The Shimmering City with Gates wide open where He will wipe every tear from our eyes. Death will be gone for good---tears gone, crying gone, pain gone (Rev 20:14). And the Book of Life will judge how each man and woman has lived their life. I don't want to "miss" exchanging the days of this coming year for worthless stuff. The Bible begins with the Tree of Life in Genesis...the Bible ends with the Tree of Life producing once again.
"Blessed be the one who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book (Rev 22:10)." That is the immense privilege of walking with you this year for you so long with every fray of your heart to keep His Word...and you do it.
"Let the righteous maintain a straight course and the holy continue on in holiness (Rev 22:11)." Because, He is on His way here! And He is bringing His Payroll with Him. "I'll pay all people in full for their life's work (Rev 22:12)." The Bright Morning Star (Rev 22:16)! "The grace of the Master Jesus be with all of you. Oh, Yes!"
Raising a toast to each of you precious pearls on the eve of a new decade...
You've been so faithful to read His Word.
Now, Keep His Word.
Let the holy continue on in holine

PRAYER FROM PSALMS Psalm 14:2 ~ The LORD looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God. As you look down on 2013, may we be found faithful to You, The First and The Last.
Nights can petrify me.
I don't know why.
No more sun.
Soon.
And we will reign. Rev 22:5
He who testifies to these things
And that would be me.
“Yes, I am coming soon.”
Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God’s people. Rev 22:20-21
Every day this year, I wrote a snippet for you to remember.
Happy New Year. You are loved!
May all these words fall like rain on your heart. God loves you more than you can imagine.
