The Lamb Shall Overcome

Read Revelations 16-18
 
Revelations 17:14 says, "These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful."  We wish we could see what the future holds for us.  We want to know what we’ll be doing in 10 years, 5 years, even this time next year.  We especially want to look into the future when we have to make a life-altering decision, because we’d like to be able to see what impact might be made by each of our choices, to make sure we choose the best outcome.

When we’re in the middle of a crises, we’d especially like to look ahead and find out how long we have to endure until we come out of it.  And we’d like to make sure all is going to be well.

Prophecy tells us that a battle is ahead.  It foreshadows how terrible things are going to get.  But God promises He is going to win in the end.  No matter what comes we can be assured: the Lord is going to be victorious.

Tomorrow’s reading: Revelations 19-22
