Even before receiving the The Lord, the book of Revelations has been fascinating to read. Many people read it because of its prophetic content, but the book is filled with many other amazing teachings. It's a book of perfection, completion; the number 7 is mentioned constantly, for example: there are 7 stars, 7 golden lampstands, 7 letters to 7 churches, 7 seals, 7 trumpets, 7 bowls, etc. But this morning, during my quite time with the Lord of the Universe, I was meditating in the 7 "blessings" that appear in the Book, read them and be blessed by His Word:- Rev 1:3 Blessed is the one who reads and hears the Words of this prophecy, and the ones keeping the things written in it, for the time is near.
- Rev 14:13 And I heard a voice from Heaven saying to me, Write, Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on. Yes, says the Spirit, they shall rest from their labors, and their works follow them.
- Rev 16:15 Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is the one who watches and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.
- Rev 19:9 And he said to me, Write, Blessed are those who have been called to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he said to me, These are the true sayings of God.
- Rev 20:6 Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. The second death has no authority over these, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with Him a thousand years.
- Rev 22:7 Behold, I come quickly. Blessed is he who keeps the Words of the prophecy of this Book.
- Rev 22:14 Blessed are they who do His commandments, that their authority will be over the Tree of Life, and they may enter in by the gates into the city.
Let God bless your life through His Word!
