Week of April 22, 2007, Revelation 5:11-14
One of the Scriptures for Sunday is from Revelation, chapter 5, verses 11-14. The final book in the Bible, it is a series of visions that the Gospel writer, John, had - these verses giving us a glimpse into worship in heaven.
11 Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand. They encircled the throne and the living creatures and the elders.
12 In a loud voice they sang: "Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!"
13 Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, singing: "To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!"
14 The four living creatures said, "Amen," and the elders fell down and worshiped.
Dear Jesus, the Easter season reminds us of the great sacrifice You paid for our sins when You died on the cross for each one of us. Thanks for the glimpse of worship that we are shown – for You really are the Lamb of God, slain and then risen in glory. You are worthy to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise. We praise You, Jesus. We give You honor and exalt Your holy name. And may we all have a renewed sense of worship as we give You praise and honor and glory and power, forever and ever!
Thanks for Your love, Jesus. Thanks for Your presence with us always. Amen.
May the Lord shower you with His mercy; may the light of His presence be ever your guide; may He guard you and uphold you; may His Spirit be ever by your side. May He bless Your comings in and your goings out. When you sleep, may His angels watch over you; when you wake, may He fill you with His grace. May you love Him and serve Him all your days, and then in heaven to see His face forevermore.In the name of the Father and of the Son of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
