DAILY READINGS: Deuteronomy 3:1-29; Eccl. 3:16-4:16; Luke 7:1-29

Blessed is he that readeth…the words of this prophecy. Revelation 1:3

John writes that there is a blessing to those who read aloud the words in this book. There may be many blessings resulting from that reading, but surely foremost must be the blessing of loving His appearing, of looking for and longing for Christ’s return. Let us stir up our hearts by a frequent reading of this wonderful revelation of the Lamb—victorious, prevailing, conquering, worthy. And for those who heed John’s words and love His appearing, there is the promise of the crown of righteousness to be awarded by the Lord. Take up and read. —M. MacMullen

O Lord Jesus how long, how long ere we shout the glad song?
Christ returneth, Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen! —H. L. Turner
