HOW TO BE BLESSED

The world has never been in such a time of stress

and turmoil.  And if you think it is bad now, just

wait.  It is going to get worse, much worse.  

How do I know?  God said so.

If you do not know what the Holy Bible is teaching,

you do not even know what is going on.  But it is all 

in there.

The direction the world is going now is "scary"

and getting  "scarier".  But the beauty of it is that

God not only tells us what is happening now and

what is going to happen - but how to be ready for

it with his blessing.

Consider this verse:

"Blessed is he who reads and those who hear

the words of the prophecy, and heed the

things which are written in it; for the time

is near."

(Revelation 1:3 NAST)

This verse actually applies to what we call the

book of Revelation.  It is the only book with 

this promise.  Also it is the "scariest" book in

the Bible.  But God does truly bless those who

read it and "heed" it.

The book is full of facts and symbolism.  But

if we "heed" or "obey" what we read this book

is a real comfort because it warns us, directs us,

telling that all that is happening is under God's

control.  Plus promises us a fantastic future if

we will but submit and listen to God's word.

Again:

"Happy is the one who reads this book,

and happy are those who listen to the

words of this prophetic message and

obey what is written in this book!  For

the time is near when all these things 

will happen."

(Revelation 1:3 GNT)  

To be blessed, read it.
