‘Praying The Book Of Revelation’
It is an honour to be able to spend time with you this morning opening the Bible and talking about Jesus.
Please get your Bible and turn to Revelation chapter 10. I will be reading from the ESV, the English Standard Version.
Read chapter 10.
English
Standard Version (ESV)
The Angel and the Little Scroll
1Then I saw another mighty angel coming down
from heaven, wrapped in a cloud, with a rainbow over his head, and his face was
like the sun, and his legs like pillars of fire. 2 He had a
little scroll open in his hand. And he set his right foot on the sea, and his
left foot on the land, 3 and called out with a loud voice, like
a lion roaring. When he called out, the seven thunders sounded. 4 And
when the seven thunders had sounded, I was about to write, but I heard a voice
from heaven saying, “Seal up what the seven thunders have said, and do not
write it down.” 5 And the angel whom I saw standing on the sea
and on the land raised his right hand to heaven 6 and swore by
him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and what is in it, the earth
and what is in it, and the sea and what is in it, that there would be no more
delay, 7 but that in the days of the trumpet call to be sounded
by the seventh angel, the mystery of God would be fulfilled, just as he
announced to his servants[a] the prophets.
8 Then the voice that I had heard from heaven spoke
to me again, saying, “Go, take the scroll that is open in the hand of the angel
who is standing on the sea and on the land.” 9 So I went to the
angel and told him to give me the little scroll. And he said to me, “Take and
eat it; it will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be sweet as
honey.” 10 And I took the little scroll from the hand of the
angel and ate it. It was sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I had eaten it my
stomach was made bitter. 11 And I was told, “You must again
prophesy about many peoples and nations and languages and kings.”
