It is our great privilege to partner in prayer with these 3 wonderful organizations: Pure Life Alliance, First Image and Oregon Camp Cedarbrook. Don't miss this chance to hear from our local Prayer Partners about their current ministry plans and how God is reaching our community through them and their work!
Psalm 77 is about having hope in God in the midst of despair... and turbulence...and anxiety. Oh, and don't forget agitation. We don't need to dwell in any of those places, though, because all our HOPE is built on the trustworthiness of God; who He is and what He has done.
So... do we feel confident in our understanding of Revelation so far? The answer to that is likely "yeah, not so much". Do not be dismayed, though, because the amazing thing (freeing, really) is that we don't have to understand it.
We are coming to the end of "The Great Conflict" section of Revelation in chapters 12-14. Chapter 14 offers a panoramic preview of the ultimate redemption and final judgment. Still heavy with fantastical imagery, all of it again serves to comfort faithful believers and warn the ungodly.
At the risk of sounding too simplistic, things are not going well. Or so it would appear... John concludes this section by calling for the patience and faith of the saints, echoing his previous words to the seven churches about their own obedience and faithfulness.
The psalms are a collection of songs, poems, and prayers that serve to direct God's people to Him in times of grief, joy, praise, and lament. They serve as a toolbox of sorts when we need to bring all the things to God... whatever all the things look like. "But as for me, how good it is to be near to God!" vs. 28a
Power, position, status... this terrible beast is wreaking as much havoc as possible, but he's on the clock, and deception and lies are all he's got.
The book of Revelation, up to this point, has unveiled a cosmic war between good and evil that serves as the backstory of human history.
t's here... the seventh trumpet. "The whole world has now become the Kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will reign forever." Other than happily humming the "Hallelujah Chorus" from Handel's Messiah, how does this make you feel? Relief?
