You don't have to read
too far
in the book of Revelation before
coming to a tremendous promise:
"Blessed is he who reads and those who hear
the
words of this prophecy
and keep those things which are written in it;
for the
time is near”
(Revelation 1:3).
By dedicating yourself personally to the study of prophecy,
you will be enabled and emboldened to
stand confidently upon God’s promises in a world surrounded
by darkness and
be a beacon of hope to bear testimony to
all who seek the
unveiled truth of God

And yet many seasoned Christians and new believers
alike are overwhelmed
by the complexity of prophecy.
The symbols, imagery, and timelines
can seem confusing.
Perhaps more concerning is the
misperception that
all prophecy is doom and gloom,
steering many from
seeking to understanding.
That ought not to be.
The Bible dedicates more space to prophecy than
almost any other subject.
Clearly, prophecy is important to God.
He desires
us to understand His plans--
to give us hope for our future,
experience a renewed sense of purpose and confidence,
and ultimately BE BLESSED.
Time and time again,
when we present prophecy teaching we see more people seeking answers to critical spiritual questions concerning these Last Days. We see more people requesting resources to help them live and proclaim the hope-filled promises in God’s Word. Indeed, more people are drawn to the lifesaving Scriptures than with any other topic.
