September 8, 2021: SOAP #4297:  Lamentations 1-2; Obadiah; Revelation 14

SCRIPTURE:  Revelation (NIV) 14:6 Then I saw another angel flying in mid-air, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth—to every nation, tribe, language, and people. 7 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, the sea and the springs of water.”

OBSERVATION: It is an “eternal gospel” because it is truth that is eternal.  It effects the eternal destination of those who receive it with faith.  It is eternal because the benefits of it will last throughout all eternity.  It flows from eternity past and reaches into eternity future. 

Being the eternal gospel, it should be proclaimed to every past and future generation. The gospel is to be proclaimed to every nation, tribe, language, and people! 

In this verse we see that worship is not just to be practiced in heaven, but also on earth.  God will have worship from every nation, every tribe, every language, and every people!

APPLICATION:  This includes my nation, my family, my language, and my race.   That surely includes me!  God is wanting my involvement in proclaiming the gospel to my generation.  He wants me to be a worshipper. 

PRAYER: Holy Spirit, anoint and use me to be a part of the plan for my generation.  What a privilege it is to be a part of what you are doing in my generation.  Amen
