Daily Readings: Revelation 12-14 and Psalm 59 John says that he saw a “great sign”, and that sign appears to continue throughout Revelation 12-14. Taking our devotional, birds’ eye view of that sign is actually a great way to get to the heart of the meaning for us today. Looking too closely and trying to

Daily Readings: Revelation 10-11 and Psalm 58 If we step back to take a birds-eye, life-application view of the deep symbolism of Revelation 10-11, I feel a devotional message for the believer might just become apparent. This revelation about the Age of the End seems directed at the People of God specifically. After all, we

Daily Readings: Revelation 8-9 and Psalm 57 In Revelation 5:8, before John saw the Lamb unsealing the scroll containing the God’s will for the progression of the Age of the End, the prayers of God’s people were presented to God as golden bowls of incense. Here in Revelation 8:3, another angel offers incense with the

Daily Readings: Revelation 6-7 and Psalm 56 In Revelation 6-7, John witnesses the Lamb of God unsealing the scroll containing the will of God for the progression of the End of the Age (perhaps better thought of as the Age of the End); that is, the whole period between Jesus’ ascension to the throne and

Daily Readings: Psalm 55 and Revelation 4-5 In Revelation 4-5 the Holy Spirit opens John’s spiritual eyes to a vision of the heavenly throne room.

Daily Readings: Revelation 2-3 and Psalm 54 In Revelation 2-3, the glorious, risen and ascended Lord Jesus communicates His words of encouragement, correction, rebuke and exhortation to the seven churches under John’s apostolic leadership. His words were for them, but they are also for us today. Scanning the seven communiques in chapters 2-3, we find

Daily Readings: Revelation 1 and Psalm 53 If you didn’t read yesterday afternoon’s post, please take a look at it and orientate yourself to the Book of The Revelation. In Revelation 1, the apostle John was in exile on the Mediterranean island of Patmos – sent there as a punishment for his faithful witness to

Tomorrow our Bible Reading Plan takes us into the final book of the Bible: “The Revelation”. This post is, to some extent an important disclaimer. My daily posts are devotional by nature. They are aimed at drawing out a life-application lesson from the sacred text of Scripture. To attempt to do that in the Book

Daily Readings: Jude 1 and Psalm 51 As the brother of James, Jude was also the brother of Jesus. Here, however, he writes that he is James’ brother and a bond-servant of Jesus. He wants his readers to know that flesh and blood relationship to the incarnate Jesus is not what set him (Jude) apart

Daily Readings: 2 John, 3 John and Psalm 51 Writing during a time of severe persecution, the apostle John did not name himself or the congregation to which he wrote. Instead he cryptically referred to himself as “the elder”, to the local church as “the lady”, and to the members as “her children”. When he
