Day 365 of reading the Holy Bible in 365 days.

Revelation 22 begins with the Angel showing the Apostle John the River of Life, the time is near, Jesus is coming soon and He testifies to the Churches, don’t add to or take away from God’s word. Jesus is coming Quickly, Amen!

Proverbs 31. The sayings of King Lemuel. The book of Proverbs ends up with “The Wife of Noble Character”, and every day I thank the Lord for my wife of 55 years. Lives would have been quite different (three children and seven grandchildren would not exist at all) if God had not brought us together.

Psalm 150. Let everything that hath breath praise the LORD!

Revelation 21. The apostle John saw in a vision how all things are made new, the New Jerusalem was before his eyes and the glory of the New Jerusalem was on full display. there was no temple in it, all glory goes to the Lamb, the Alpha and Omega!

Malachi 4 describes the great and dreadful day of the Lord, but before that day God will send His messenger Elijah.

Day 363 of reading the Holy Bible in 365 days.

Revelation 20 is full of action: Satan will be bound for 1,000 Years and the saints will reign with Christ for the same length of time. Then there will be a satanic rebellion which will be crushed, and after that comes the Great White Throne Judgment.

Malachi 3. The LORD promised to send His messenger before His coming: “But who can endure the day of his coming“,”For He is like a refiners fire.” So return to God instead of robbing God, but the people complained. God assured them there is everything to gain to serve Him.

Day 360 of reading the Holy Bible in 365 days.

Revelation 18:1-20. This chapter is so full of Old Testament prophecy that it deserves to be read over two days. It tells of the fall of Babylon the great, the one world political system, and how the world mourns the fall of Babylon. The important thing to remember is that the Holy Bible is one consistent book, God is in control and gives the victory through Jesus Christ. We will not grasp it all, for if we did, we would try to save the world all by ourselves without God, (and fail miserably, as the Old Testament proves over and over again, not to mention recent history).

Proverbs 30. The sayings of Agur. Solomon wasn’t the only man with wisdom and these sayings made it into the canonical scripture. Two examples: “give me neither poverty nor riches” and “The horseleach hath two daughters, crying, Give, give.”

Day 359 of reading the Holy Bible in 365 days.

Revelation 17. So begins the telling of the fall of Babylon. It is not Rome, nor is it Roman Catholicism. In my opinion it is the coalition of communism, socialism, Islam and social justice Christianity in the form of Globalism and implementing Global Governance. This is represented by the scarlet woman and the scarlet basket. The meaning of the woman and the basket is then explained in prophecy. (Feel free to interpret the prophesies otherwise).

Zechariah 14 is the great chapter of the second coming of Christ, here presented as the Day of the LORD, declared HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD.

Revelation 15. In the vision the seven angels were getting ready for the bowl judgements, but first there was shown praise and worship in heaven, and the temple was filled with the glory of God before the bowls were poured out.

Zechariah 10. The LORD promised future restoration of Judah and restoration of Israel.

Zechariah 11. The LORD  proclaimed judgement on Israel, but after that comes the prophecy of the shepherds. This chapter also contains the famous quote: “I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver. And the Lord said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the Lord.“

Day 356 of reading the Holy Bible in 365 days.

Revelation 14. The apostle John again saw the vision of the lamb and the 144,000 Jewish male virgins, after which he saw and heard three angels making their proclamation. And then came time to proclaim the reaping of the earth’s harvest, the Grapes of Wrath. This vision is later portrayed in the Battle Hymn of the Republic.

Zechariah 8. The Lord promised to bless Jerusalem, the future Holy City.

Zechariah 9, an oracle: The LORD will defend Israel against all enemies, He promised ” thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.”

Day 355 of reading the Holy Bible in 365 days.

Revelation 13. This is a very famous and scary chapter. The Apostle John saw two beasts, the beast from the sea, and even worse, the beast from the earth. His number is 666!

Zechariah 5. The visions keep unfolding, this chapter has the vision of the flying scroll and the vision of the woman in a basket.

Day 354 of reading the Holy Bible in 365 days.

Revelation 12. The vision the apostle John saw was about the woman, the child and the dragon. Satan was thrown out of heaven and the woman was persecuted but protected by God.

Zechariah 2 presents the vision of the Measuring Line and the future joy of Zion, Jerusalem being a city without walls and the joy of many nations.

Zechariah 3 gives a vision of the high priest, cleansed of all his sins and given new robes. The LORD promised to send His servant, the Branch.

Zechariah 4 tells of two more visions, the vision of the lamp Stand and the vision of the olive trees. There is one great takeaway quote from this chapter: “Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.“

Day 353 of reading the Holy Bible in 365 days.

Revelation 11 tells of the two witnesses, their power, death and resurrection. After that the seventh trumpet sounded and the Kingdom was proclaimed.
