Revelation 1: 3 “Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near.”
Dear God,
This year I have made a special study of the Bible book Revelation, and I thank You for receiving the promised blessings that attend the reading of this book for these blessing from You are a gift for all who seek. Very importantly You do have on offer for us, the wisdom and power of the Holy Spirit, and thereby, I wish to make a thorough preparation within my heart, so that with great joy I will greet Jesus when He comes again. Revelation 1: 7 “Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. All tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen”
I ask and pray, that all thought of myself will be taken away and that place will be filled with all that is needed to truly love You selflessly, so that I can overcome my natural reserve and tell others the glad news, that Jesus is indeed coming soon and that they also, can love Him and make preparation to greet Him with anticipation and joy.
Revelation 1: 8 ’’’I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,’ says the Lord, ‘who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.’”
You Jesus, have always been, and will always be, and You have done all things good, pure and can and do all things in heaven and earth, that is righteous and filled with love, creative and powerful. It is You who is my Saviour and Redeemer, but not only mine, but for everyone who chooses You. You are coming soon, literally for each person who wills, and it is always time to prepare hearts and lives, so as to be counted worthy by You to be taken to heaven to live eternally. Our opportunity to choose and live for You, finishes with our death, so it really always time to prepare, whether that is during a life time of being called Christian or at the end of a life of sin and disobedience, Your offer is open to all, such is Your love and desire to save each person unto Yourself; for there is no other way to get to heaven.
I praise You, Jesus for You are Creator and it is You who will resurrect the righteous dead to life, and it is Your dear face that will be the first view of a new life, learning about and being with You. In the meantime, I have the words in Revelation to guide me (us) and give encouragement in our preparation to be ready always.
Amen
