The War for Every Nation
Revelations 10-14
“‘They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.’…He was given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And he was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation…Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth – to every nation, tribe, language and people. He said in a loud voice, ‘Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth…”
Revelation 12:11; 13:7; 14:6, 7
Those who know and follow Jesus Christ are in a war that is global. It is a war that encompasses every tribe, people, language, and nation. It is a war for the hearts and minds of all peoples on earth. Our enemy, the devil, opposes Jesus and his eternal gospel that can set people free. In this war, we overcome the devil by the blood of the Lamb and his forgiveness of sins, by the word of our testimony of the saving power of this eternal gospel, and by loving not our lives unto death. We are fighting this battle to free captive hearts and lives and the price is the same price Jesus paid. One day every soul will give an account of their lives before our Creator God. Until then the war that Jesus has won, rages on.
“Lord Jesus, you have the keys of death and hell – you have won!”
