Open the Scroll

New Year’s Resolutions

• List a goal for each facet of health: 7.

• How will you achieve it?

• Do you have a plan?

Revelation 5:1-10Then I saw in the right hand of the one who was seated on the throne a scroll written on the front and back and sealed with seven seals.  And I saw a powerful angel proclaiming in a loud voice: “Who is worthy to open the scroll and to break its seals?” But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or look into it. So I began weeping bitterly because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or to look into it. Then one of the elders said to me, “Stop weeping! Look, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, has conquered; thus he can open the scroll and its seven seals.”

Revelation 5:1-10Then I saw standing in the middle of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the middle of the elders, a Lamb that appeared to have been killed. He had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth. Then he came and took the scroll from the right hand of the one who was seated on the throne, and when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders threw themselves to the ground before the Lamb. Each of them had a harp and golden bowls full of incense (which are the prayers of the saints).

Revelation 5:1-10They were singing a new song:

“You are worthy to take the scroll

and to open its seals

because you were killed,

and at the cost of your own blood you have purchased for God

persons from every tribe, language, people, and nation.

You have appointed them as a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth.”

The Awe: “I wept”

• Reverence & respect, the fear of God and submission to His Lordship

• “Cast off all restraint”: No respect, no honor

• We need to teach respect, humility, awe.

The Plan: “Kings & Priests”• Unlimited potential and value, unconditional

love. The wonderful plan of God

• Can we ruin this plan? Can we forfeit our destiny?

• Are you cooperating with this plan?

Our Church• “God, give us America.”

• The grace to accomplish the impossible

• The lifting and endowment of Grace & anointing.

• Vegas, Nevada, America, & beyond. Ask of me…

Your Response• A renewed sense of awe. Embrace His plan.
