A great earthquake I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood.  Revelation 6:12 I live in western Pennsylvania so, as you can imagine, we don’t get a lot of earthquakes around here.  Oh,Continue reading “Wednesday, February 28, 2024”

Under the Alter When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held.  Revelation 6:9  As I get older each year, I consider that the day is getting closer to when my work hereContinue reading “Tuesday, February 27, 2024”

Death and the Grave I looked up and saw a horse whose color was pale green. Its rider was named Death, and his companion was the Grave. These two were given authority over one-fourth of the earth, to kill with the sword and famine and disease and wild animals.  Revelation 6:8  I am praying forContinue reading “Monday, February 26, 2024”

Peacemakers Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.  Matthew 5:9 Imagine you were sent to this world to make peace.  Not with other people, but to connect other people with God.  An ambassador.  That’s what Jesus did.  The angels proclaimed peace the night He was born into the Earth.  TheyContinue reading “From the Daily Dose Journal Series”

Pure in Heart Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.  Matthew 5:8 The pure in heart, the innocent?  Remember when you were?  Probably a very long time ago, but still today you always look for the best in others.  You expect good things are going to happen and you have hopeContinue reading “From the Daily Dose Journal Series”

The Third Seal When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand.  Revelation 6:5 I remember when March 2020 hit, and the country shut down forContinue reading “Friday, February 23, 2024”

Conflict When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, “Come and see.” Revelation 6:3 At the beginning of this year, the Lord showed me that when conflict arises, I should press into it and get excited about what resolution will come out of it. When conflict is faced properly, itContinue reading “Thursday, February 22, 2023”

Come and See Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals; and I heard one of the four living creatures saying with a voice like thunder, “Come and see.”  Revelation 6:1 Here we go!  Chapter six is where Revelation shifts from heavenly worship and celebrating to interaction with earth.  The Lamb ofContinue reading “Tuesday, February 20, 2024”

Worthy to receive Saying with a loud voice: “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom, and strength and honor and glory and blessing!” Revelation 5:12 We started the beginning of Revelation chapter five last week that introduced a scroll with seven seals that no one in heaven orContinue reading “Monday, February 19, 2024”

Have mercy! Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.  Matthew 5:7 Ooo!  This is a tough one.  We live in probably the most unmerciful world of all time.  There is very little grace to be seen these days in our society.  People are angry, hurt and unforgiving and will fight for theContinue reading “From the Daily Dose Series”
