Our God Conquers Power of the World By His Weakness!

1. King of Lion – Messiah’s warriors fight by the power of obedience, not weapons; conquer by the power of sacrifice, not force. (v5)
2. Cry of Lamb – John saw in his vision the Lamb, slain and helpless! Our one Redeemer is one who suffers for us. (v6)

* I am having my 6th shot of chemotherapy this Thursday morning, Dec/15. As I read Revelation 2:10, “Fear not the things which thou art about to suffer: behold, the devil is about to cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days. Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee the crown of life.” “Ten days” signifies perfect completion. It is comforting to know there is an end to all suffering. Church in Smyrna testified for the Lord faithfully! Though only few were persecuted in person, many wanted to share the suffering. One way of sharing the suffering is through supplication for the member in tribulation! – Sam KONG

* and rend your heart, …., and turn unto Jehovah your God; … Who knoweth whether he will not turn and repent (Joel 2:13-14)
Joel 1-3: God’s judgment does not operate mechanically. The step He takes depends on how man responds. Whenever man repents, God changes His mind in how He judges.
