Sunday – April 7th – Revelation 22:10-11    -----     
 
22:10) Then he instructed me, “Do not seal up the prophetic words in this book, for the time is near.
11) Let the one who is doing harm continue to do harm; let the one who is vile continue to be vile; let the one who is righteous continue to live righteously; let the one who is holy continue to be holy.”
 
The Daily Walk Bible inspirational thought for today:
      THE INCONSISTENT CHRISTIAN IS ONE OF THE DEVIL’S BEST WORKERS.*

     Welcome to Sunday! I couldn’t think of a more appropriate inspirational thought for the first Sunday after Easter than the one we have today. What is even more God designed is that the inspirational thoughts are assigned to the same day each year, regardless of when rolling holidays may occur. So, aligning on the Sunday after Easter is that much more of a God sighting. I know I am preaching to the choir in this blog, so it is probably safe to assume that this is not intended for any of us, but instead probably someone we know in our lives that falls into the “inconsistent” category. I will let you in on God’s secret weapon on our helping moving someone from inconsistent to consistent – pray for them and ask others to pray for them. The Bible tells us that the prayer of a righteous person avails much fruit for the Kingdom of Heaven.

     In our pick verses today, John records another series of final instructions for the readers of Revelation. Readers of scripture throughout the ages find significant blessings and encouragement for their daily walk while standing on the promise of eternal life in God’s presence. Even with the opportunity to be changed by the words of scripture, the angel guide is clear that evil people will have hardened themselves to God’s truth. and that they will refuse to change their thoughts, attitudes, character, or behaviors. The God who gave us the gift of freewill, freely allows those who chose to sin to do so until the end of the ages. The unchangeable destiny of all people will be determined by their character as demonstrated by their deeds. God allows us to choose where we will spend eternity.

Blessings
