Breakfast For Your Soul

And when He had taken The Book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the LAMB, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odors, which are the prayers of saints.

Revelation 5:8

And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto Him much incense, that He should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the Throne.
Revelation 8:3

And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before GOD out of the angel’s hand.

Revelation 8:4 

Good Morning Beloved,

“The prayers of the Saints”.  The bible tells us that we should always pray and never faint, or give up.  My dear sister in Christ Arlene, sent me a message this morning about Matthew the 24th chapter.  Those verses are as on point as anything could ever be.  It is as if they were ripped straight from the pages of today’s newspaper.  We are seeing what the disciples of Jesus would have found unbelievable.  Sin is heralded as cute, pleasurable, and not that big of a deal; while holiness is becoming dated, restrictive, narrow, harsh, crazy and repugnant to society at large.  Matthew 24 tells us what to expect so we won’t be shocked when we see it come to pass.  However, Revelation (the end of the thing as we know it), tells us that our prayers are so precious, that they are carried straight into the presence of God in Golden Vials.  The 24 elders place them before the throne.  Not one of them is ever lost, misplaced, or discarded.  Perilous times are here, more are coming, but fear not, not only do we have the heart of God, but His Eyes and Ears too…

The Eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and His ears are open to their cry.

Psalm 34:15

….. and that is Good News!

U Blessed,

Have A Fabulous Day
