From the Pastor’s Heart
Welcome to another Sabbath with blessings from God! The
book of Revelation is filled with blessings to us. “He who overcomes, I
will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame
and sat down with My Father on His throne.” Revelation 3:21. Jesus
calls us, His children: “overcomers”. This is how He sees us!
We cannot overcome on our own power but Jesus sees us as
overcomers because He has paid the ultimate price by shedding His
blood for us and taking on the role of “Overcomer”. This is the greatest
blessing we can receive: sitting down with Jesus on His throne. We long
to be with Jesus so ask Him to take our lives and make them consecrated
to Him. “And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb…”
Revelation 12:11.
Pastor Lloyd
