Revelation 12:11 They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. Christmas eve conjures up so many images for me. I think of Christmas carolers and hot cider. I remember the children’s musical productionsContinue reading “Christmas Eve”

Has Become
Revelation 11:15 The Seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said: “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah, and he will reign for ever and ever.” Every day I look around and see that something is fundamentally wrong with theContinue reading “Has Become”
Hearing and Seeing
Revelation 7:9 After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. There is often a difference between what weContinue reading “Hearing and Seeing”
Pictures of the Past
Revelation 4:2 At once I was in the Spirit, and there before me was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it. We have a number of photo albums around our house, most collecting dust, if I am completely honest. My wife uses Facebook like a photo album these days. But I realized thatContinue reading “Pictures of the Past”

Face to Face
2 John 12 I have much to write to you, but I do no wan to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete. It is not possible to over estimate the importance of face to face conversations. TheyContinue reading “Face to Face”
Believe and Love
1 John 3: 23 And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us. Sometimes things in life are simple! Let me say that again: sometimes things in life are simple! It can be very difficult to hear these words atContinue reading “Believe and Love”
Anointing
1 John 2:27 As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit—just as it has taught you, remain in him. One of the marks of aContinue reading “Anointing”
An Ounce of Prevention
2 Peter 1:9 But whoever does not have them is nearsighted and blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their past sins. We are a culture that likes to talk about prevention. We take vitamin supplements, have very high vehicle safety standards compared to other parts of the world, we allow lawyers to getContinue reading “An Ounce of Prevention”
