God’s Word Fulfilled

Revelation 15-18 

“…The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast,…They will make war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will overcome them because he is the Lord of lords and King of kings – and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers…For God has put it into their hearts to accomplish his purpose by agreeing to give the beast their power to rule, until God’s words are fulfilled.”

Revelation 17:8, 14, 17

The story of salvation-history is completed with the restoration of all things and their reconciliation with their Creator. This reconciliation requires God’s judgment of evil and its pervasive influence. The will of God will be accomplished even in the hearts of his enemies! God’s Word and prophetic purposes will be fulfilled, and with him will stand his called, chosen, and faithful followers.

Are we following the Lord now?

Are we being proven faithful in the small assignments of life so we will prove faithful in the larger assignments?

There is still much to be fulfilled in this final chapter of salvation-history. Let us not be spectators, but participants in God’s end-time purposes.

“Lord Jesus, you are faithful to your Word, for your glory.”
