The Gospel of John Chapter 7 gives us the story of Jesus at the Feast of Tabernacles and tells of confrontations with the Pharisees.
Let me encourage you to study John 7 with me this weekend. Your learning comes from reading and studying the Bible. Listen as I read the Gospel of John chapter 7 and then offer some brief comments. Then use the six days of questions provided (one for each day of the week) and get to know the text in a greater way.

These verses introduce to us the second beast in this chapter, a beast that comes out of the earth. This is a spiritual leader who rules through deception. He is going to deceive politically, spiritually, religiously, and financially. This reminds us of the need to have God's wisdom.

We have in this text a lion, a bear and a leopard which is similar to the picture we have in Daniel 7. They represent successive kingdoms that come upon the earth to rule against God. Study careful this unforgettable picture of the epitome of evil.

In our study, we will look at the first of two beasts mentioned in this chapter. This beast comes out of the sea. Let's look at the three basic interpretations people have had over the last several centuries. God is still in control and we can trust Him.

As Christians, we are called to pray for God’s guidance and wisdom. We feel it is more imperative than ever for believers to stand together in prayerful unity as the world continues on a downward spiral toward the Tribulation hour. Calamity causes people to waste huge amounts of time fixated on watching the destruction instead of praying for protection and God’s miraculous interventions.
The Bible is filled with verses encouraging us to stay focused on praying for God’s will for our lives; for the safety and wellbeing of our families, ministries and leaders; for the spiritual awakening of the unsaved so they to come to true salvation in Christ; and of course for one another and anything that the Lord places upon our hearts. Up to the final moments of our days on earth, until the day of the Rapture of the Church, we are dedicated to be prayer warriors for the cause of Christ. We have added this page to invite and motivate our fellow believers to pray for the most pressing needs of the day. |
