That is all the power they get, and they spend it fighting the Lamb. It makes me look at what I am giving my own brief authority to. Your hour of influence at work, in your home, with your words, is short too. Whose side is it serving?

The wall of insights
What touches you in Scripture? What can we pray for? What can we thank God for?

Not his rank, not his victories. His willingness. God noticed that and had it written down forever. Nobody drafted him. He simply said yes. What would your line say?
Father, this is a hard story: shame uncovered, anger spoken, words that wounded generations. Forgive us for the times we…Father, this is a hard story: shame uncovered, anger spoken, words that wounded generations. Forgive us for the times we have twisted such words to justify harm. Break the curses we inherit and pass on, and teach us to cover each other with mercy instead.

The altar was built to travel. Wherever Israel pitched camp, the place of forgiveness came with them. You cannot outwalk it. That dry stretch you are in right now, where God feels distant, the altar is already there.

You…Thank You for saying "that they may live, and not die, when they approach to the most holy things." You guard us as we draw near, and You still appoint everyone to his service and to his burden, so no one carries what isn't his to carry. I'm grateful for the task You named for me.

Yet he argues, "We know that God doesn't listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshiper of God, and does his will, he listens to him." He simply followed what happened to his own eyes. Sometimes the plainest testimony, what Jesus actually did in you, outreasons everyone in the room.
About Faith.Network

Disclaimer: Faith.network uses automated language models to prepare Bible studies and reflections. All content is generated from the Bible text itself and checked daily by an independent, automated quality control: random samples from every language site are scored on faithfulness to Scripture, verbatim Bible quotation, language and clarity, and the results are published unedited. Even so, no explanation is infallible and mistakes can occur. Nothing on this platform constitutes professional advice, and no rights can be derived from its content. Always test what you read against the Bible itself, and use Faith.network as a supplement to — never a replacement for — your own Bible study, prayer and the life of a local church community.
