ENDURANCE: The patient endurance of Christ Jesus is yours - Revelation 1:9

"I Am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.” I, John, your brother and companion in the suffering and kingdom and patient endurance that are ours in Jesus, was on the island of Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus. Revelation 1:8-9

Rewarding Truth: "This is a statement that can be trusted: If we have died with Him, we will live with Him. If we endure, we will rule with Him. If we disown Him, He will disown us." 2 Timothy 2:12

Prayer:
I come with praise in my heart, Lord Jesus, to thank You for enduring such great persecution, sorrow, pain, suffering, injustice, and crucifixion for us. For this reason, I want to endure to the end as a faithful servant of Yours, for the sake of my family members and friends, so that they too may receive the salvation that You offer to all who believe in You, with eternal glory. I ask in Your mighty name, amen.

COMING: Jesus is coming, and every eye will see Him - Revelation 1:7

“Look, He is coming with the clouds,” and “every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him”; and all peoples on earth “will mourn because of Him.” So shall it be! Amen. Revelation 1:7

Infallible Truth:

• But don't forget this, dear friends. He isn't really being slow about His promised return, even though it sometimes seems that way. But He is waiting, for the good reason that He is not willing that any should perish, and He is giving more time for sinners to repent." 2 Peter 3:8-9 
• Jesus replied, “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by His own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” After He had said this, they watched as He was taken up, and a cloud hid Him from their sight. They were looking intently into the sky as He was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them. “Men of Galilee,” they said, “why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen Him go into heaven.” Acts 1:8-11

Prayer:

I am waiting every day for the coming of my Lord Jesus Christ. Despite the chaos and troubles I see in this world, I believe, Lord Jesus, that the end of sin, wickedness, and evil will come when You return. Sovereign Father, I'm filled with hope and peace, knowing that the times and seasons are under Your complete control. Thank You for Your heart of unfathomable love, that patiently waits, giving sinners more time to repent and believe in Your Son. Please help me, Holy Spirit, to be steadfast in the faith, knowing that Jesus is coming and that I will see Him with my own eyes. I ask in His mighty name.

PRIEST: Christ has formed us to be a kingdom and priests to God - Revelation 1:6

And He [Christ] formed us to be a kingdom, to be priests unto His God and Father; to Him be the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen. Revelation 1:6

Eternal Truth:

• "Seeing then that we have a great High Priest, who has passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession." Hebrews 4:14 
• "Therefore He [Christ Jesus] is able also to save forever those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to intercede and intervene on their behalf with God." Hebrews 7:25
• Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us." Romans 8:34

Prayer:
I enter Your holy presence, Lord Jesus, with gratitude for being my Great High Priest. I offer my life to You and trust You to form me into a faithful minister unto God. Holy Spirit, help me grow in 2026 in being a priest who reflects Christ's love for those who feel unworthy to draw near to God because of their sin and thoughts of self-condemnation. Use me today to strengthen someone’s faith by praying with them and pointing them to our Great High Priest, who died to redeem us and always lives to intercede for us. I pray for their salvation in Jesus' mighty name.

LOVED: You are loved by Jesus Christ - Revelation 1:5

From John to the seven churches in the province of Asia: Grace and peace be yours from God, who is, who was, and who is to come, and from the seven spirits in front of His throne, and from Jesus Christ, the Faithful Witness, the Firstborn from the dead and who is also the Ruler of the kings of the world. He loves us, and by His sacrificial death, He has freed us from our sins. Revelation 1:4-5

Praise & Prayer
Lord Jesus, Your unfailing love surpasses anything words can ever express. Abba Father, I am in awe of Your amazing grace and great mercy given through Christ, Your Son, who freed us from our sins and destroyed the powers of death. Holy Spirit, help me understand and grow in the vastness of Christ's love so I can share it with others. I pray this in Jesus' name.

BLESSED: Read, hear, and keep the words of this prophecy to be blessed - Revelation 1:3

Blessed is the one who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near. Revelation 1:3

Meaning of "Revelation" [Apocalypse]: "Unveiling; Uncovering; Disclosure."

Prayer:
As I read this prophecy about You, Lord Jesus, please open my eyes to see beyond the mere words—to the unveiling of Your majestic glory they reveal. Abba Father, I want to be a reader, hearer, and doer of Your Word, which brings unimaginable blessings to my life and prepares me for the time that is near. Holy Spirit, please engrave the words of this prophecy in my heart so I can grow in wisdom and guide my family and fellow believers to faith in Christ our Lord and Savior. I pray in Jesus' mighty name.

REVELATION: God gave His servants the revelation of Jesus Christ - Revelation 1:1

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His SERVANTS—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John. Revelation 1:1

Quote: "The book of Revelation may be difficult and demanding to read, yet it is the only biblical book whose author promises a blessing to those who read it. I have read the last page in the Bible [Revelation]. It is all going to turn out all right for we know what the end will be: the triumph of the Lord Jesus Christ." - Billy Graham

Prayer & Praise:
The Revelation of JESUS CHRIST is for His servants. Please reveal Yourself to me, Lord Jesus, so I am prepared for what will take place in my lifetime. Abba Father, I praise You for sending Your beloved Son to reveal Your Word of truth, amazing grace, perfect righteousness, and wonderful salvation. I believe in my heart that You raised Him from the dead and confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is LORD. I am humbled and honored to be His servant. Not my will, but Your will be done in me. I ask in Jesus' mighty name.

GRACE: The gift of undeserved grace comes from our Lord Jesus Christ - 2 Peter 3:18

Let the gift of undeserved grace and the understanding that come from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ help you keep on growing. Praise Jesus now and forever! Amen. 2 Peter 3:18

Eternal Truth:

• "But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in our trespasses. It is by grace you have been saved!" Ephesians 2:4-5 
• "He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of His own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time." 2 Timothy 1:9 
• "Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need." Hebrews 4:16

Praise & Prayer:
Because of Your undeserved grace [favor], Lord Jesus, my heart overflows with worship, praise, and gratitude. I thank You for giving me understanding of Your undeserved grace [favor], which covers all my sin and shame and helps me grow in my understanding of God's everlasting love. Abba Father, I will never stop thanking You for the great things Christ my Savior has done for me, in me, and through me. To You and my Lord Jesus, receive all the honor, glory, and majesty forever and ever. Amen
