Hear
Feb 6 – Hear – Rev 2:11
Vs 11 – Here again is the exhortation. If you ears, hear. This is what the Spirit is saying to the churches. Those who overcome. Those who are victorious and never give up. You will not hurt by the second death. The death that is reserved for the wicked. You will not have to suffer in the lake of fire. You sin has been dealt with at the cross. You have been true, faithful and obedient. You will not suffer a second death.
Clean
Hosea wrote in Hos 14:2, Take words with you
and return to the Lord.
Say to him:
“Forgive all our sins
and receive us graciously,
that we may offer the fruit of our lips. Confession is a wonderful way to stay clean and righteous before the Lord. When you ask for forgiveness the Lord graciously grants it. So today keep short accounts with the Lord. This way you lead a righteous life and walk in a proper manner before God and man.

Victors Crown
Feb 5 – Victors crown – Rev 2:10
Vs 10 – Jesus warns them that they will suffer, face prison and persecution. He tells them not to be afraid. He also tells them who is behind this attack. It is satan himself. He will test you. Remember satan is the tempter. Temptation is another word for test. They will be tested to see their true colors. They will be tested to see what they are made of. Testing always brings out the best or worse. It just depends on what is going on inside.
This time of testing will last ten days. This is not literal but an extended period of time. It could be years or decades. However long the time these ten days are Jesus called them to be faithful. Do not give in or up. Stay true to the Lord. Some will even go to the point of death. Now it does not say they will die but it will be to the point of death. The reward for this faithfulness is life and the victors crown. This is the crown given to those who run the race of life and win. It is given to the one who stays true and faithful to the end. You never give up or surrender.

It is written
Jesus said, in Matt 4:4, Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God. Our lives must center on the word of God. It should be what we speak and how we live. The word of God is our spiritual food. It will give us life and victory. So today study and live the Bible. Stand on its promises and see God work in your life.
