A heavenly war, a huge victory, a retreating enemy, scorching the earth in his fury … It is an epic vision! But where does it fit in the Apocalypse? #Revelation12 #SatanCastOut #ArchangelMichael
Revelation 12: The Woman, The Son, The Dragon
It is a pivotal story placed at the center of John’s Apocalypse, but who are the characters, and what does it mean? #Revelation12 #TheDragon #WomanInLabor #RodofIron

Isaiah 45: Cyrus Fulfilled Prophecy
God is never defeated or thwarted by what happens in the real world. The Lord is actually able to work through everything to move forward with God’s plan, and all events have one ultimate goal of redemption and restoration.

Isaiah 45: Cyrus the Great
The Bible does not offer superficial answers to these questions. The Bible does not offer catchy slogans or rhyming word art. The Bible instead pushes us to a mature view of Who God really is, so that we can put our trust in the God of reality, the God Who actually exists.

Isaiah 43: Behold, I Do a New Thing
After making a way to restoration and new life, after pouring rivers of refreshment and revival into the sere desert of their circumstances … there is no praise, there is no lifting of heads. You have been weary of Me, God said.

Revelation 11: Two Witnesses Vindicated by God
To the watching world, it seemed as though God had abandoned these two prophets to their foes. At last, or so they must have thought, God’s opponent had gotten the upper hand. What glee! What giddy excitement! But also what despair.
