Pastor Marshall Ochs | September 25, 2022
In this message, Pastor Marshall teaches from Revelation 10-11. These chapters cover the moment John eats the little scroll and finds it sweet in his mouth, but bitter in his stomach. This scene leads into a vision of God’s people during the final days of tribulation, just before the Lord returns at the final trumpet sound. The imagery reveals God’s persevering people through difficult seasons of suffering, and God’s faithfulness in tribulation.

Reflect
Read Revelation 10:1-11 and Ezekiel 3:1-3. John is told to consume the scroll and preach it. What are you eating daily? Is it the Word of God, social media, news, or television? Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal what you are consuming.
Read Revelation 11:1-14. According to verse 3, what is the mission of the two witnesses? Spend time reflecting on your assignment.
Read Revelation 11:15-19. What is the response of the twenty-four elders (verses 16-17)?
Spend time in prayer asking the Holy Spirit to reveal if you are wrapped up in things that do not matter. What will your response be to His revelation?
Do you believe the lies of the deceiver? Maybe your eyes are on the wrong things, consuming things of this world instead of God’s Word, perhaps living in fear. Will you surrender everything to Him and walk in obedience? How is God speaking to you? What bold prayers will you pray?
