Revelation 1: The Final Word

Can you imagine this chapter in the hands of some special effects guru in Hollywood? Some of the scenes described here would strain the imaginations (and the budgets) of even the best and brightest that tinsel town could come up with.

As far as last words go, hard to top verse 5 & 6:

“To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood, and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father – to him be the glory and power for ever and ever!”

Slow down and take a moment to reflect on these words. As you do so, pay attention to what is happening inside of you:

• How are you experiencing Gods love?
• Are you feeling freedom from your sins?
• Do you feel stirrings of wonder or gratitude?
• Do you sense your smallness and God’s greatness?

Whatever you are thinking or feeling right now, take a moment, stop and talk with God about it. And please, do not miss the opportunity to say thank you for all that you have been given.
