The Topic of Daily Fountain Devotional for 28th November 2023 Is ”There Is Hope for You”
Read: Revelation 11:1-13(NKJV)
11:1. Then I was given a reed like a measuring rod. And the angel stood, saying, “Rise and measure the temple of God, the altar, and those who worship there.
11:2. “But leave out the court which is outside the temple, and do not measure it, for it has been given to the Gentiles. And they will tread the holy city underfoot [for] forty-two months.
11:3. “And I will give [power] to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.”
11:4. These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands standing before the God of the earth.
11:5. And if anyone wants to harm them, fire proceeds from their mouth and devours their enemies. And if anyone wants to harm them, he must be killed in this manner.
11:6. These have power to shut heaven, so that no rain falls in the days of their prophecy; and they have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to strike the earth with all plagues, as often as they desire.
11:7. When they finish their testimony, the beast that ascends out of the bottomless pit will make war against them, overcome them, and kill them.
11:8. And their dead bodies [will lie] in the street of the great city which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
11:9. Then [those] from the peoples, tribes, tongues, and nations will see their dead bodies three-and-a-half days, and not allow their dead bodies to be put into graves.
11:10. And those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them, make merry, and send gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.
11:11. Now after the three-and-a-half days the breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them.
11:12. And they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here.” And they ascended to heaven in a cloud, and their enemies saw them.
11:13. In the same hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. In the earthquake seven thousand people were killed, and the rest were afraid and gave glory to the God of heaven.
ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 28TH NOVEMBER 2023.
Many interpretations have been given as to what the two witnesses in our text today stand for or mean. However, one thing we know is that they were servants of God. They were very powerful and invincible such that whoever tried to harm them died by fire. But a time came that the beast defeated and killed them. Men who saw them as their enemies rejoiced at their death because the witnesses were so humiliated that even in death, they were not allowed to be buried.
Their bodies were displayed for the world to rejoice and mock at. But suddenly, there was a twist! God raised them up not only from death but also caused them to ascend to heaven – to the place where Christ is seated over and above the touch of the beast or any power or dominion – in the sight of all who mocked them! Those who had mocked them died and others were afraid and gave glory to God.
Dear reader, have you been up there, full of life and bubbling in the Lord but suddenly the hour of darkness fell upon you and you fell? Or have you been mightily used of God before but somehow you became defeated by the beast and now it appears as though your body is lying in the public with tongues wagging at you and mocking you saying ‘we said it, he will not go far; she will fail soon?
Please, listen, there is hope for the living; there is hope for you. If God can bring back from the dead the two witnesses that had been killed, you can still again breathe in the life of God. There is hope for a tree when it is cut down. When it tastes water, it will sprout again.
I counsel you now, reconnect you root to the bed of everlasting waters and you shall live again. There is still hope for you!
PRAYER: Dear Lord, I thank you for the hope I have in Christ Jesus. I claim your power of resurrection, in Jesus name.
