Notice on a slight format change:

Except for July 2012, these are mostly a collection of current devotional notes.

July 2012 is a re-write of old quiet times. My second child was born Nov 11, 1987 with multiple birth defects. I've been re-reading my QT notes from that time in my life, and have included them here. They cover the time before the birth and the few years immediately after the birth. They are tagged "historical." I added new insights and labeled them: ((TODAY, dd mmm yy)).

Rev 19:1-10
Revelation 19:7 (ESV) — Let us rejoice and exult and give him the glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and his Bride has made herself ready;
The bride is ready, this is the church. It has not been mentioned in the seven years of chapter 4 to 18. Now, it reappears in chapter 19, the triumphant return of Jesus Christ to earth. The 7 years of preparation is over. The bride is ready. God's judgment is ready to come to close. The guests are all identifies (OT saints, and now the remainder of the tribulation saints).
I'm not sure what the seven years will hold. I do know a place is being prepared. I'm sure there will be preparation as well for the church. God is even now working to bring about the events of Revelation. Most of the world is oblivious. Probably the truly evil understand, but they think they can win. The other part of the world is blinded by sin and false prophets.
Father, open our eyes. Open the eyes of the church that we might live in such a way that attracts others to the gospel before it is too late.
