They Shall See His Face
Scripture: Revelation 22
"They shall see His face..." (Revelation 22:4).
I've seen some special things in my life. There are some things in life I long to see. To see His face is my deepest longing.
No one compares to Him. Nothing compares to Him. He is the beginning and the end. He is everything and all things. He is the One I long to see, to touch, to be with. To see His face, to be in His presence, to never have to leave His side, that will be glory for me.

All Things New
Scripture: Revelation 21
Then He who sat on the throne said, "Behold I make all things new." And He said to me, "Write, for these words are true and faithful" (Revelation 21:5).
Things in this world have gone terribly wrong because of sin. In the new heaven and new earth all the wrongs will be made right. All things will be "new."
No more tears, death, sorrow, crying, or pain. The former things will pass away. All things will be "new."

The Book of Life
Scripture: Revelation 20
"And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire" (Revelation 20:15).
The Lamb has a book. He writes names in it (Philippians 4:3). He blots names out of it (Revelation 3:5).
At the final judgment the Lamb's Book of Life will be opened (Revelation 20:12). Those not found in His book will be cast into the lake of fire (Revelation 20:15). "But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb's Book of Life" (Revelation 21:27).
Allow Jesus to love you. Allow Him to wash you from your sins in His own blood. Allow Him to write your name in His book: "To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood..." (Revelation 1:5).

KING & LORD
Scripture: Revelation 19
We glory, honor, and worship Him because of who He is:
And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written:
Crown Him the King of your life. Submit to Him as your Lord. Receive Him as your Savior.

Babylon the Great is Fallen
Scripture: Revelation 18
After these things I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illuminated with his glory. And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying,"Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen..." (Revelation 18:1-2).
It would seem to be the Babylon under discussion in Revelation 18 is Rome. The time and historical context of the book leads me to this conclusion. Others see Jerusalem or some city yet to come.
Whatever city is under discussion in Revelation 18 know this: "strong is the Lord God who judges her" (Revelation 18:8). Cities rise and fall under the watchful eye of the true and living God. He is Lord over all and will judge righteously.
