READ

Revelation 7:9-10

9 After this I saw a vast crowd, too great to count, from every nation and tribe and people and language, standing in front of the throne and before the Lamb. They were clothed in white robes and held palm branches in their hands. 10 And they were shouting with a great roar,

“Salvation comes from our God who sits on the throne and from the Lamb!”

REFLECT

We are currently being prepared for eternal life with God.  Here is what we have to look forward to as further proof that witnessing works.  This crowd described in the passage above is composed of all those who remained faithful to God throughout the generations.  Witnessing exists because we are not there yet……but we will be, so we must witness.  We don’t know how much time we have left so don’t waste any opportunities you have to witness.

APPLY

Q: What was the crowd shouting?  Do you believe it?

Q: When was the last time you invited someone new to church or spoke about your faith?

Q: How can you witness to your neighbors? co-workers? friends?

SING

PRAY

"Forgive us our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us."

Heavenly Father, please prepare me for your purposes.  Thank you that I have eternal life with You to look forward to.  Help me witness to those around me about Your gift of salvation.  What an amazing gift You are God!
