Revelation 19-20; Psalms 47
One Story That Leads to Jesus, Day 357
Revelation 19
19After this, I heard what sounded like a vast crowd in heaven shouting, "Praise the LORD! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God.G2532G3326G5023G191G3173G5456G4183G3793G1722G3772G3004G239G4991G2532G1391G2532G5092G2532G1411G2962G2257G2316 2His judgments are true and just. He has punished the great prostitute who corrupted the earth with her immorality. He has avenged the murder of his servants."G3754G228G2532G1342G846G2920G3754G2919G3173G4204G3748G5351G1093G1722G846G4202G2532G1556G129G846G1401G1537G846G5495 3And again their voices rang out: "Praise the LORD! The smoke from that city ascends forever and ever!"G2532G1208G2046G239G2532G846G2586G305G1519G165G165 4Then the twenty-four elders and the four living beings fell down and worshiped God, who was sitting on the throne. They cried out, "Amen! Praise the LORD!"G2532G5064G2532G1501G4245G2532G5064G2226G4098G2532G4352G2316G2521G1909G2362G3004G281G239 5And from the throne came a voice that said, "Praise our God, all his servants, all who fear him, from the least to the greatest."G2532G5456G1831G1537G2362G3004G134G2257G2316G3956G846G1401G2532G5399G846G2532G3398G2532G3173 6Then I heard again what sounded like the shout of a vast crowd or the roar of mighty ocean waves or the crash of loud thunder: "Praise the LORD! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns.G2532G191G5613G5456G4183G3793G2532G5613G5456G4183G5204G2532G5613G5456G2478G1027G3004G239G3754G2962G2316G3841G936 7Let us be glad and rejoice, and let us give honor to him. For the time has come for the wedding feast of the Lamb, and his bride has prepared herself.G5463G2532G21G2532G1325G1391G846G3754G1062G721G2064G2532G846G1135G2090G1438G2090 8She has been given the finest of pure white linen to wear." For the fine linen represents the good deeds of God's holy people.G2532G846G1325G2443G4016G1039G2513G2532G2986G1063G1039G2076G1345G40 9And the angel said to me, "Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding feast of the Lamb." And he added, These are true words that come from God."G2532G3004G3427G1125G3107G2564G1519G1062G1173G721G2532G3004G3427G3778G1526G228G3056G2316 10Then I fell down at his feet to worship him, but he said, "No, don't worship me. I am a servant of God, just like you and your brothers and sisters who testify about their faith in Jesus. Worship only God. For the essence of prophecy is to give a clear witness for Jesus."G2532G4098G1715G846G4228G4352G846G2532G3004G3427G3708G3361G1510G4675G4889G2532G4675G80G2192G3141G2424G4352G2316G1063G3141G2424G2076G4151G4394 11Then I saw heaven opened, and a white horse was standing there. Its rider was named Faithful and True, for he judges fairly and wages a righteous war.G2532G1492G3772G455G2532G2400G3022G2462G2532G2521G1909G846G2564G4103G2532G228G2532G1722G1343G2919G2532G4170 12His eyes were like flames of fire, and on his head were many crowns. A name was written on him that no one understood except himself.G1161G846G3788G5613G5395G4442G2532G1909G846G2776G4183G1238G2192G3686G1125G3739G3762G1492G1508G846 13He wore a robe dipped in blood, and his title was the Word of God.G2532G4016G2440G911G129G2532G846G3686G2564G3056G2316 14The armies of heaven, dressed in the finest of pure white linen, followed him on white horses.G2532G4753G3588G1722G3772G190G846G1909G3022G2462G1746G1039G3022G2532G2513 15From his mouth came a sharp sword to strike down the nations. He will rule them with an iron rod. He will release the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty, like juice flowing from a winepress.G2532G1537G846G4750G1607G3691G4501G2443G1722G846G3960G1484G2532G846G4165G846G1722G4464G4603G2532G846G3961G3025G3631G2372G2532G3709G3841G2316 16On his robe at his thigh was written this title: King of all kings and Lord of all lords.G2532G2192G1909G2440G2532G1909G846G3382G3686G1125G935G935G2532G2962G2962 17Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, shouting to the vultures flying high in the sky: "Come! Gather together for the great banquet God has prepared.G2532G1492G1520G32G2476G1722G2246G2532G2896G3173G5456G3004G3956G3732G4072G1722G3321G1205G2532G4863G1519G1173G3173G2316 18Come and eat the flesh of kings, generals, and strong warriors; of horses and their riders; and of all humanity, both free and slave, small and great."G2443G5315G4561G935G2532G4561G5506G2532G4561G2478G2532G4561G2462G2532G2521G1909G846G2532G4561G3956G1658G2532G1401G2532G3398G2532G3173 19Then I saw the beast and the kings of the world and their armies gathered together to fight against the one sitting on the horse and his army.G2532G1492G2342G2532G935G1093G2532G846G4753G4863G4160G4171G3326G2521G1909G2462G2532G3326G846G4753 20And the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who did mighty miracles on behalf of the beast—miracles that deceived all who had accepted the mark of the beast and who worshiped his statue. Both the beast and his false prophet were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur.G2532G2342G4084G2532G3326G5127G5578G4160G4592G1799G846G1722G3739G4105G2983G5480G2342G2532G4352G846G1504G1417G906G2198G1519G3041G4442G2545G1722G2303 21Their entire army was killed by the sharp sword that came from the mouth of the one riding the white horse. And the vultures all gorged themselves on the dead bodies.G2532G3062G615G1722G4501G2521G1909G2462G3588G1607G1537G846G4750G2532G3956G3732G5526G1537G846G4561
Revelation 20
20Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven with the key to the bottomless pit and a heavy chain in his hand.G2532G1492G32G2597G1537G3772G2192G2807G12G2532G3173G254G1909G846G5495 2He seized the dragon—that old serpent, who is the devil, Satan—and bound him in chains for a thousand years.G2532G2902G1404G744G3789G3739G2076G1228G2532G4567G2532G1210G846G5507G2094 3The angel threw him into the bottomless pit, which he then shut and locked so Satan could not deceive the nations anymore until the thousand years were finished. Afterward he must be released for a little while.G2532G906G846G1519G12G2532G2808G846G2808G2532G4972G1883G846G3363G4105G1484G3363G2089G891G5507G2094G5055G2532G3326G5023G846G1163G3089G3398G5550 4Then I saw thrones, and the people sitting on them had been given the authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony about Jesus and for proclaiming the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his statue, nor accepted his mark on their forehead or their hands. They all came to life again, and they reigned with Christ for a thousand years.G2532G1492G2362G2532G2523G1909G846G2532G2917G1325G846G2532G5590G3990G1223G3141G2424G2532G1223G3056G2316G2532G3748G4352G3756G4352G2342G3777G846G1504G2532G3756G2983G5480G1909G846G3359G2532G1909G846G5495G2532G2198G2532G936G3326G5547G5507G2094 5This is the first resurrection. (The rest of the dead did not come back to life until the thousand years had ended.)G1161G3062G3498G326G3756G326G2193G5507G2094G5055G3778G4413G386 6Blessed and holy are those who share in the first resurrection. For them the second death holds no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him a thousand years.G3107G2532G40G2192G3313G1722G4413G386G1909G5130G1208G2288G2192G3756G1849G235G2071G2409G2316G2532G5547G2532G936G3326G846G5507G2094 7When the thousand years come to an end, Satan will be let out of his prison.G2532G3752G5507G2094G5055G4567G3089G1537G846G5438 8He will go out to deceive the nations—called Gog and Magog—in every corner of the earth. He will gather them together for battle—a mighty army, as numberless as sand along the seashore.G2532G1831G4105G1484G3588G1722G5064G1137G1093G1136G2532G3098G4863G846G4863G1519G4171G706G3739G5613G285G2281 9And I saw them as they went up on the broad plain of the earth and surrounded God's people and the beloved city. But fire from heaven came down on the attacking armies and consumed them.G2532G305G1909G4114G1093G2532G2944G3925G40G2944G2532G25G4172G2532G4442G2597G575G2316G1537G3772G2532G2719G846 10Then the devil, who had deceived them, was thrown into the fiery lake of burning sulfur, joining the beast and the false prophet. There they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.G2532G1228G4105G846G906G1519G3041G4442G2532G2303G3699G2342G2532G5578G2532G928G2250G2532G3571G1519G165G165 11And I saw a great white throne and the one sitting on it. The earth and sky fled from his presence, but they found no place to hide.G2532G1492G3173G3022G2362G2532G2521G1909G846G575G3739G4383G1093G2532G3772G5343G2532G2147G3756G5117G846 12I saw the dead, both great and small, standing before God's throne. And the books were opened, including the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to what they had done, as recorded in the books.G2532G1492G3498G3398G2532G3173G2476G1799G2316G2532G975G455G2532G243G975G455G3739G2076G2222G2532G3498G2919G1537G1125G1722G975G2596G846G2041 13The sea gave up its dead, and death and the grave gave up their dead. And all were judged according to their deeds.G2532G2281G1325G3498G3588G1722G846G2532G2288G2532G86G1325G3498G3588G1722G846G2532G2919G1538G2596G846G2041 14Then death and the grave were thrown into the lake of fire. This lake of fire is the second death.G2532G2288G2532G86G906G1519G3041G4442G3778G2076G1208G2288 15And anyone whose name was not found recorded in the Book of Life was thrown into the lake of fire.G2532G1536G2147G3756G2147G1125G1722G976G2222G906G1519G3041G4442
