Day 10
Those who overcome are always men and women whose trust in Jesus remains strong and clear in every circumstance of life. We overcome Satan by the blood of the Lamb and by our testimony (Rev 12:11). We testify to the truth of who God is and stand on the finished work of Christ.
Day 9
As overcoming Christians we need to learn to fight the good fight, to endure through hard times and put following Christ above personal comfort. This is modelled by our brothers and sisters in Multan Diocese in Pakistan. CLICK HERE to find out more about our partnership and join future online prayer meetings with Multan.
Day 8
You and I are called to be Christians who conquer or overcome the world the flesh and the Devil. Every follower of Jesus finds themselves in battle, every Christian is a soldier of Jesus Christ. But God equips us for victory.
Day 7
Our work for Jesus will not be in vain. In Revelation 14:3 we read, “…’Yes,’ says the Spirit, ‘they will rest from their labour, for their deeds will follow them.’”
Day 6
We’re told that God knows the works of his people and weighs them. As followers of Jesus we’re called to be different to those around us and to demonstrate God’s Kingdom as well as proclaim it. Faith in Christ and works for Christ go hand in hand.
Day 5
“I know your works.” We can drift into believing that in the end, everyone will be saved but that’s not what the Bible clearly teaches. The church today must wake up and make every effort to bring those who are without Christ to saving faith in him.
Day 4
To each of the seven churches the Spirit writes, “I know your works.” This knowledge should develop in us a sense of holy reverence for God.
Day 3
The person of Jesus Christ is at the heart of the Book of Revelation and the church’s task is to call people to repentance and a life-changing faith in him. In our parishes, let’s get the message out: Jesus Christ is Lord and in love, he died to save every person he has created.
Day 2
Rev 3: 22, “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” These letters address important matters, yet in church life we can often major on the minors. Let’s make sure we focus on the things that are central to who we are called to be as followers of Jesus Christ.
Day 1
Rev 1:3 says “Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear, and who keep what is written in it, for the time is near.” Our Lent devotions will focus on Revelation 1-3 and the seven letters to the churches, however, we will also hear the remainder of Revelation read aloud by some of our youth and children’s workers.
