<h1>The Book of Revelation, Part 49 -&nbsp;Rick Joyner</h1>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The true Christian life is the most difficult life we can live on this earth, but it is also the most fulfilling life we can live. As John wrote in 1 John 5:19,&nbsp;<strong>“The whole world lies in the power of the evil one.”</strong>&nbsp;We can be sure the evil one is making this life as difficult as he can for the true followers of Christ, and the Lord allows it for our sake. Those who walk with Christ at the end of the age will walk in a power and glory that no other generation has and demonstrate the authority of the coming kingdom of God. They must be found adequate to handle such authority.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The world celebrates the false Christianity of comfort, ease, and devotion to the ways and the wealth of this world. The Lord taught that those who were at ease in this world would have a very difficult time getting into His kingdom.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; He also said that His true followers would not be loved or celebrated by the world but would be hated by it just as it hated Him. He said,<strong>&nbsp;“</strong><strong>Woe to you when all the people speak well of you; for their fathers used to treat the false prophets the same way”</strong>&nbsp;(Luke 6:26). Contrary to this, how much of the modern church seeks to be accepted and celebrated by the world? Is this why the church has so much worldly wealth and power, but very little spiritual wealth or power?&nbsp; &nbsp;<a href="https://publications.morningstarministries.org/word-for-the-week/book-revelation-part-49?lang=en&amp;_kx=GhgqhNfviHFNBdC9RexkbdzTRT3H3zwgnzdTrn5yWhmfxDsa0cfTPMvMH10Ffb1r.U4gNJ5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">READ MORE</a></p>
