Reading: Revelation 22, 2 Kings 11-12 and 2 Chronicles 24
Scripture: Revelation 22:11-12, Let the evildoer still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy, and the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy.” "Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay each one for what he has done.
Observation: As John is writing about the return of Jesus he drops this bomb on us saying people will still be who they are but Jesus is coming soon and he is bringing what is deserved.
Application: In some ways I feel that this world has taken the idea that I can do what ever I want to so fare that we are seeing so much evil and filthiness that John was talking about here. It is so hard to live in this kind of world where pornographic images and thoughts are bombarding us every day. We are to love and care for those who are lost. We need to daily lift up those around us and seek to share the gospel with them so that one day they me be caught up in the folds of God’s grace and mercy. We can’t stop people from sinning but we can be a light and continually shine God’s love on them.
Prayer: Father I thank you for the people in my life that pursued me and prayed for me, I would not be here if it was not for those who poured your love into me. I thank you for the provisions and blessings that you five us every day. I ask that you be with us each day to help us see the opportunities you place around us to share your love and your grace.
