We’ve just begun to look at the book of Revelation in our midweek Bible study. In the middle of a world where the physical prosperity around us so quickly hides the spiritual reality, it is good to have the curtain of heaven pulled back and for us to see the spiritual reality behind the suffering (though we know little of this), and the kingdom, and the patient endurance that are ours in Christ Jesus. As we lift our eyes to praise him, he strengthens our faith and leads us on to the time when he returns.
“To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood, and has made us to be a kingdom of priests to serve his God and Father – to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen.
