Today’s message hones in on the rich imagery of Revelation 7:9-17 with the multitude robed in white standing before God’s throne, lifting up praises and shouts of victory. Such an image inspires hope – there truly is a place of peace, rest, and joy for us beyond this life. And the same image is meant to inspire perseverance as well, for these saints overcame by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony, and by God’s sustaining power, we will, too! Let’s honor the work of God in the saints who have gone before us by living faithfully today.
