“And I saw... those who have the victory over the beast, over his image and over his mark and over the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God. They sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying: ‘Great and marvelous are Your works, Lord God Almighty! Just and true are Your ways, o King of the saints! who shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy. For all nations shall come and worship before You, for Your judgments have been manifested.’” [1]
The above words are from “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place.” [2]
Victory! Victory! Victory!
The revelation God gives us is victory over the beast. That beast, that anti-Christ, that instead-of-Christ-one! That which is instead of Christ is a beast. Not a good shepherd, but a spirit that tears and devours its prey! The beast wanted to brand God’s servants with his name. He wanted to steal God’s precious treasure, that is, His faithful servants, but he failed.
God gives His servants the victory. We shall stand on a sea so clear that it looks like a sheet of glass. We shall sing and celebrate God with musical instruments along with people from every nation!
Jesus said that when we see these signs of the end... to... “Look up. Lift up your heads because your redemption draws near.” [3]
So, we look up! We lift up! Christ is coming!
“Dear Heavenly Father, Jesus the Son and Precious Holy Spirit, Triune God, thank You for Your great and marvelous works. Thank You for victory!”
[1] Revelation 15:2-4
[2] Revelation 1:1
[3] Luke 21:28
Bearing witness to the Word of God and to the testimony of Jesus!
