Revelation 21:22-27

I did not see a temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.  The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp.  The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it.  On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there.  The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it. Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful,but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life.

 

​Lord God Almighty,

Sometimes I struggle to feel you near,

to find assurances that you are at work.

I know that I shrink you 

to fit you into my life,

to accommodate you in my life.

Here I am reminded of your awesome majesty,

your glory and splendour.

Your radiant presence illumines everything

and the lamp of the Lamb 

is a light to my path and awakens me to

The wonder of life lived fully in your presence Lord.

Immerse me in your presence,

in the power of your Spirit,

that I may walk by your light in this day.

Amen. Amen. Amen.
