“And they came up on the broad plain of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city, and fire came down from heaven and devoured them” (Revelation 20:9).

The city of Zion, the gathering place of the saints, is always under attack by the forces of Gog and Magog.  In the end, the wickedness of the world will be consumed by fire, that is, destroyed.  Do not be deceived.  Know that the way of the Lord will prevail.  The wickedness of this age is just for a season and fully in God’s purview.  He is the Sovereign Lord and His will is going to be done.

Whom will you follow?  Will you follow the Lord, or chase after the emptiness of this age.  Know that only in the Lord is there true hope.  Know that the way of the Lord is the only way that works out in the end.  There can only be One who is God.  You cannot be Him, nor can your neighbor be Him, but that is what many seem to be pretending to be able to do.  All the rebellious evil will be consumed and removed.

Lord Jesus, You are the Savior and You have come to save us from sin, death, and the devil.  Guide me, Lord, so that I walk humbly with You, my Lord and God.  You know all these things from the beginning, and I need not tell You of them, but I do need Your instruction.  Guide me in the way of Zion, the holy way of righteousness.  Lead me to do what is right and fitting in Your eyes, for this age and the age to come.  Amen.
