Revelation 4:1-5:14

What God said to me – Come up here and I will show you – that’s always the way it is.  You must come to Me with your questions and your doubts.  I will reveal Myself to you.  Walk with Me and you will see My glory – a bit here and a bit there.  You will see glimpses of Me and My hand at work as we walk together until one day you will see Me face to face in all of My glory.  Live for that day.  Long for that day.  Walk with Me like that day is today.  That is how you walk in a manner that pleases Me.  Walk through each day craning to see My glory along the way.  When you’re actively seeking My glory, you will see it more and more.

Revelation 2:1-3:22

What God said to me – I know your deeds.  I know where you live.  I know who you are, not just by reputation, but in reality.  I know your faults as well as your positive characteristics.  I know the good and the bad and I still love you.  There is nothing hidden from Me.  I see all and know all so quit pretending.  It’s as you come to Me openly and honestly that change can begin.  When you come to Me this way, with this heart, I can begin to transform you and teach you how to overcome rather than succumb.  Come now and let me begin this process in you so that you might know the blessing and receive the promises I have made to those who overcome.

Revelation 1:1-1:20

What God said to me – “I AM” the faithful witness.  What I see and hear from My Father, I pass on to you.  Trust me and don’t doubt or waiver for “I AM” faithful and true.  I long to reveal Myself to you so you can know me truly and deeply.  What I have to say is not always easy, but it is always true.  Know that when I rebuke you it is out of love just as My encouragement is out of love.  Listen to Me for I always tell you the truth and I always have your good in mind.  Turn quickly back to Me so we can go on together.
