While we had a special Bible verse for Thanksgiving in the United States, below was the scheduled Bible verse. From the sermon Series: Our future Royal priesthood “Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years.” Revelation 20:6 After the first resurrection, Christ will establish His kingdom of peace on earth, and Satan will be bound, allowing for the Gospel to be proclaimed everywhere! During this time, we will reign with Christ as members of a royal priesthood. This call has a season of preparation. The Holy Spirit works in us to ready us for our co-regency with Christ. The Spirit teaches us to pursue faithfulness despite hardships, to help the weak even at great cost to ourselves, and to see a precious soul that God wishes to redeem in each human. Along with this call, come Jesus’ expectations for us to engage our gifts and talents in His work, to pray and intercede for others in heartfelt love, and to proclaim the Gospel in word and deed. Today we must use our time effectively to prepare for the future. How is God working in your life to prepare you to reign with Christ? How can you advance God’s Kingdom today?
