July 12, 2020, Psalms 122, Revelation 20

Psalm 122

I rejoice with those who said 

to me, 

"Let us go to the house of the Lord.

Our feet are standing

in your gates, Jerusalem. 

Jerusalem is built like a city

that is closely compacted together.

That is where the tribes go up-

the tribes of the Lord-

to praise the name of the Lord

according to the statue given to Israel. 

There stand the thrones of judgement, 

the thrones of the house of David. 

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:

May those who love you be secure.

May there be peace within your walls

and security within your citadels.

For the sake of my family and friends, 

I will say, "Peace be within you."

For the sake of the house of the Lord 

our God, I will seek your prosperity. 

Revelation 20

The Thousand Years

And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time. I saw thrones who which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God, They had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads of their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years. (the rest of the dead did not come to life until the first resurrection. Blessed and holy are those those who hare in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for about a thousand years. 

Time belongs to God....No man knows the hour or when God will do what he desires!

The Judgement of Satan 

(After Prison)

When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth- Gog and Magog-and to gather them for battle. IN number they are like the sand on the seashore. They march across the breadth of the earth, and surrounded the camp of God's people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

The Judgement of the Dead 

(The Dragon is Gone)

Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. The earth and the heavens fled from  his presence, and there was not place for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. The sea gave up the dead, that were in in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that that were in them, and each person was judged according to what they had done. Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The Lake of fire is the second death. Anyone whose name was not found in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.

The Lake of fire

• The beast
• The dragon
• The false prophet
• The names of those not written in the book of life

Have a great day!
