Book of Revelations by Rick Joyner

Rick Joyner

During the year 2018, Rick Joyner did an extensive study on the book of revelations. The book is one of the least understood books of the bible and the reason is because it is sealed. I wrote about it earlier; you can read it here The importance of this book to us at this time cannot be overemphasized.

I have compiled some of the lessons I learned from the series and brought them to you:

Heaven

Heaven is a place and not an abstract analogy or a literary expression. There is a tangible place called heaven and it is somewhere the mind cannot figure out. The place is very huge so much that the mind cannot begin to try to imagine how big it is. The size of the earth is nothing compared to what heaven looks like. This is why the word of the Lord will surely come to pass because there is no force on the earth that can stand against the counsel of heaven. No matter the size of the evil on this earth, victory is certain. The power that backs a believer is beyond all that the world military can pull together.

Worship

There is constant worship for God in heaven, but God desires worship from the earth more than from heaven. The implication of this is simply that God wants us to love Him above all the other things that are present on this earth. Our worship is cherished much more than what we think.

God's Work

On the earth, the devil and dark spirits are doing a lot of works leading to death, however our God is in charge of this earth and our focus must not shift from what God is doing on the earth to what the devil is doing or what man is doing. Many a time, we shift our focus from what God is doing and begin to pray and concentrate on what the devil is doing. As much as we should not neglect the advances of the devil (bible says we should resist him), we must not begin to look out for the devil and the things he is doing. Our focus must remain on God. He is still in charge. The kingdom of God is fully established in heaven, but it is not in full operations on the earth which means that we still have a measure of darkness in operation on the earth. This can be so much that we begin to behold it and when we behold darkness, we begin to take up it evil nature.

New Earth

The new earth will be ruled by Jesus for 1,000 years and the assignment of Jesus and the saints that return with Him will be to restore the earth to its original form in Genesis 1:1. Jesus and the church is (we are jointed) involved in the process of redemption right now (Jesus being the saviour and the church being His body), but the 1,000 years will be for restoration of the earth to what God created in the beginning. This assignment will be a process and not an event and the process will be for 1,000 years.

Prophetic Perspective: Israel vs Iran

The middle east situation between Israel and Palestine is a very complex one that can be viewed from many sides. Whichever perspective you choose, there will always be an unresolved issue. It is exactly a year that Hamas, a terrorist group in Palestine, dealt the biggest blow ever to the Israeli state, killing over 1000 Jews and abducting about 251. It sent a shock wave round the world. The October 7, 2023 attacks kick-started a war that has escalated to involve Lebanon, Syria, Qatar and Iran. Israel has gone all out attacking Palestine in a wave that many world leaders have been cautioning them to consider the civilians. ORIGIN OF THE WAR The origin of the war in the middle east can be traced back to the 1920s when Britain, in conjunction with the Arabs defeated the Ottoman military in Jerusalem and took the city as a colony of the British royalty. It wasn't long before the British decided to release the land to the Arabs that fought alongside them. But, there was another set of ...

Seven Years In Christ- Friends

After an official meeting with executives of tacsfonOAU When I resumed for the second year in college, I saw a result of the previous year and it was 39%. I couldn't believe what I saw because it was definitely not commensurate with my efforts. I wept quite bitterly and promised God that He wouldn't see me around any of His assignments again. I just joined a subgroup in my fellowship and I expected that my results will be better because of the several testimonies that I have heard from people. As I was weeping, God directed three friends to visit the spot where I was weeping. It was a miracle that I wouldn't forget. They consoled me and encouraged me to take a step of checking the result with the coordinator of the course. Eventually, my result was changed to 62%. This is one of the many times that the Lord has used brothers and sisters around me to stabilize me and keep me in line with His purpose. The role they have played in my last 7 years cannot be written in ...

Can You See Islam Imploding?

Islam has taken a major stage in the world today, with many western nations trying to find their feet in the face of millions of immigrants from Islamic nations. Several European countries are losing their own culture as the Islamic wave is taking over their lands already. While in Africa, nations are embroiled in Islam related conflicts that is claiming lives in millions. In many places, Muslims have become citizens and are beginning to contest for political offices. The current mayor of London is a Muslim. Same with the current mayor of New York. Scotland already had a Muslim PM. You see, there is no issue with a Muslim becoming a political leader other than the fact that true Muslims are territorial; their religion teaches them that the religion of the ruler is the religion of the land. Is this Islamophobia? Wait. What is Islamophobia? Why should anyone be Islamophobic? Is it because terrorists are Muslims? Or because Muslims threaten to slaughter anyone who slanders their religion?...
