Revelation 15 - Praying God's Word

 

Please read Revelation 15.

www.blueletterbible.org/nasb/rev/15/1/s_1182001

Meditate on verses 2-3.

 

And I saw something like a sea of glass

mixed with fire, and those who had been

victorious over the beast and his image and

the number of his name, standing on the

sea of glass, holding harps of God.  And they sang

the song of Moses, the bond-servant

of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying,

"Great and marvelous are Your works, O

LORD God, the Almighty; righteous and

 true are Your ways, King of the nations!”

 

Thankfully, Jesus included lots of worship throughout the vision He gave John because arrogant, blasphemous beasts can wear a person down (Revelation 13:5-6).  Not surprisingly, even as we write these devotionals for Revelation, real-life “beasts” are speaking blasphemies about the Bible and a stand we took for God’s Word.  Persevering for the cause of Christ is exhausting; that is why it must be done in God’s strength and not our own.  Worshiping the One who gives the strength is vital for being victorious in Jesus. 

 

Revelation 4, 5, 7, 11, 12, and 15 contain beautiful worship verses.  Praise Jesus with them.

Praise Him with Revelation 15:2-4 as His faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

 

“Great and marvelous are Your works, O LORD

 God, the Almighty!  Righteous and true are Your ways, King

 of the nations!  Who will not fear, O LORD, and glorify

Your name?  For You alone are holy; for all the nations will come

and worship before You, for Your righteous acts have

 been revealed.  Make us victorious over the beast

and his image and the number of His name.

By the power of Your name, Lamb of God, LORD Jesus~”
