Opening Hymn; Blessings by Laura Story;
We pray for blessings, we pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
And all the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things
‘Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You’re near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise
We pray for wisdom, Your voice to hear
We cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love
As if every promise from Your word is not enough
And all the while, You hear each desperate plea
And long that we’d have faith to believe
‘Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You’re near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise
When friends betray us
When darkness seems to win
We know the pain reminds this heart
That this is not
This is not our home
It’s not our home
‘Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
And what if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You’re near
What if my greatest disappointments or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can’t satisfy
And what if trials of this life-
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are Your mercies in disguise.
Opening Prayer; Dear heavenly Father thank You for Your amazing grace and perfect peace which You supply in such abundance, to all those who are called by Your name. Help us to take to heart all the truths that are contained in Your Word, and help us to apply it in our lives – to Your praise and glory, in Jesus name we pray, AMEN.
From the publisher of the book of Revelation;
The Book of Revelation is the only book of the Bible with a promise to the reader! Why? What makes this book so special?
Revelation is a lens that puts the entire Bible into focus. The lens is focused on the person of Jesus Christ, and his destiny is imminent. This is a book of victory: We are overcomers! We are the ultimate winners in the game of life! (I read the ending: We win!)
One of the reasons this book strikes us as strange is because of our lack of understanding concerning the Old Testament. The Book of Revelation consists of 404 verses that contain over 800 allusions to the Old Testament. These are detailed, along with Chuck’s analysis of the design and structure of this fascinating book. Learn about the past, present, and future of the church and our ultimate destiny. This is an ideal “first study” and foundational for every Christian.
This is what the book of Revelation really means. However you have to realize that although that is the ultimate meaning, you still have to understand it. As this publisher says it is based on the old and New testaments. The adults this week concluded the book of Revelation, and the whole new testament. So, you should have a better understanding of most. We will also be going over some of the old testament where it fits in.
ANNOUNCEMENT; CONGRATULATIONS FOR ALL OF YOU THAT TOOK THE TIME TO READ EVERY LESSON EVERYDAY AND FINISHING THE NEW TESTAMENT. AS I SAID ABOVE WE WILL GO THOUGH THE OLD TESTAMENT IN SOME AREAS THAT WERE NOT WASHED AWAY BY THE NEW CONVENANT. WE WILL BE TALKING ABOUT THE TWO COVENANTS AND WHY THERE ARE TWO COVENANTS.
closing prayer; Heavenly Father, we praise and thank You for Your wonderful plan of redemption. Thank You that we have been saved by grace through faith in Christ and thank You that the wrath of God was poured out on Christ in our stead. We know that a terrible time of trouble is coming on the whole earth when Your righteous wrath will be poured out on a God-hating, Christ-rejecting sinful world, but we pray that many would come to faith in Christ Jesus our Lord, during that time of great distress.. and we thank You that the Millennial reign of Christ is coming soon.. when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God as the waters cover the sea. In Jesus name we pray AMEN.
Closing Hymn; Holy, Holy, Holy, worthy is the lamb by Jennie Lee Riddle;
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Holy holy is He
Sing a new song to Him who sits on
Heaven’s mercy seat
Holy holy holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You
Clothed in rainbows of living color.
Benediction; Now, go in peace and spread about the book of Revelation as you understand it. Please make sure you do understand it to all your friends, colleagues and family. It is very important to get the word of God out wherever we can, time is getting short. Have a very good week wherever you are. Pray for those who are still fighting with the pandemic and the after affect of it.
For those who wish to become a child of our heavenly Lord, or strengthen thier faith, please pray the following prayer below.
Dear Heavenly Father, I want to be a part of your family. You said in Your Word that if I acknowledge that You raised Jesus from the dead, and that I accept Him as my Lord and Savior, I would be saved. Thank you, Heavenly Father, for forgiving me, saving me, and giving me eternal life with You. Amen!”
By saying this prayer, we believe you are born again.
