Bible REading: Revelation 1:17-20
17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet as if I were dead. But he laid his right hand on me and said, “Don’t be afraid! I am the First and the Last.
18 I am the living one. I died, but look—I am alive forever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and the grave.
19 “Write down what you have seen—both the things that are now happening and the things that will happen.
20 This is the meaning of the mystery of the seven stars you saw in my right hand and the seven gold lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.
Devotion:
In Revelation, Christ's authority is reaffirmed as He communicates His will to John for the churches. Today, focus on your spiritual posture towards the church. Attitude, approach, and physical presence matter in how you engage with God's Word and the church community. Consider the roles of humility and authority in your relationship with church leadership and fellow believers.
Question For Reflection:
What adjustments can you make in your attitude or approach to better align with the authoritative structure God has placed within His church?
