Prepare your heart for our Sunday Morning Gathering by looking through these suggestions that will assist you in making the most of our time together.
You will find tangible suggestions for putting scripture to action in your personal life and in our corporate body, links to the songs we will sing, and lyrics for you to prepare for our corporate singing.
Critically Think
- Read Revelation 20:7-10.
- The passage begins with the phrase “When the thousand years are completed…” What are these “thousand years” referring to? Read back over Revelation 19:11-20:6 for the context of this passage.
- What is Satan’s “prison” according to the immediate context of Revelation 20:1-3? When was he put in this prison? Why? By whom?
- What do we learn from the phrase “Satan will be released”?
- What is the significance of the titles “Gog and Magog”? Read Ezekiel 38-39. How does Ezekiel’s vision compare with what we see described in Revelation 20:7-10?
- Compare Revelation 20:7-10 with Revelation 19:19-21. What is similar? What is different? Are these describing the same event? Why or why not?
Prayerfully Meditate
- What does this passage tell us about the heart of sinful man even in a perfect environment like the millennial reign of Christ Himself?
- What does this passage tell us about the activity of Satan and his influence on the earth?
- What does this passage tell us about the lake of fire? (Also read Revelation 20:14-15)
- What does this passage tell us about the sovereign plans of God?
Intentionally Act
- What effect would this passage have on John’s readers? What should it have on us today?
- Are there ways that you think about humanity, Satan, or God that these verses should cause you to change or to think about more?
- How would you summarize this passage in 21 words or less?
- Click the links below to find the lyrics and recordings of the songs planned for our gathering this Sunday; learn the songs, study the lyrics and sing them with others.
- Pray for those leading our corporate gathering this week and for the Holy Spirit’s work as the Word of God is further explained and applied: Dawson Bryant: music; Mark Krystyniak: elder prayer & scripture reading; Bret Capranica: teaching.
