Anyone With Ears

Prayer – Lord Jesus, You want people to listen—and no where is that more evident that in the Book of Revelation. Open my ears—as well as my heart—to know You and Your promises. I’m trusting in You to keep Your promises. 

Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches. To everyone who is victorious I will give fruit from the tree of life in the paradise of God. Revelation 2:7

 

Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches. Whoever is victorious will not be harmed by the second death. Revelation 2:11

 

Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches. To everyone who is victorious I will give some of the manna that has been hidden away in heaven. And I will give to each one a white stone, and on the stone will be engraved a new name that no one understands except the one who receives it. Revelation 2:17

 

To all who are victorious, who obey me to the very end, To them I will give authority over all the nations. They will rule the nations with an iron rod and smash them like clay pots. They will have the same authority I received from my Father, and I will also give them the morning star! Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches. Revelation 2:26-29

 

All who are victorious will be clothed in white. I will never erase their names from the Book of Life, but I will announce before my Father and his angels that they are mine. Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches. Revelation 3:5-6

 

All who are victorious will become pillars in the Temple of my God, and they will never have to leave it. And I will write on them the name of my God, and they will be citizens in the city of my God--the new Jerusalem that comes down from heaven from my God. And I will also write on them my new name. Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches. Revelation 3:12-13  

 

Those who are victorious will sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat with my Father on his throne. Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches. Revelation 3:21-22

 

Meditate. Consider God’s promises for listening.

 

God keeps His promises.
No floods for the entire earth.
Look for His promises for you.

Promises. Promises. The promises to those who listen are such wonderful, victorious promises. God is well known to keep His promises. Listen closely to what He is saying and to His promises.

       I prayed to the LORD my God and confessed: "O Lord, you are a great and awesome God! You always fulfill your covenant and keep your promises of unfailing love to those who love you and obey your commands.” Daniel 9:4 (Underlined for emphasis.)

God made promises to Abraham and his descendants—that He would give them the Promised Land…and He did. Jesus promised that He would go and prepare a place for us…and that He would come back for us when everything was ready.

      Don't let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. There is more than enough room in my Father's home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. John 14:1-3

Is that place just about ready? It takes a while to build a really great house—but after about two thousand years is it almost finished? I’m trusting in the Lord to keep His promises. Have you made the choice to trust Him, too?
