I know about your suffering and poverty- but you are rich! I know the blasphemy of those opposing you. They say they are Jews, but they are not, because their synagogue belongs to Satan.
You will suffer for 10 days.
Revelations 2:9,10b
During my condensed quiet time (ugh!) I fell upon this scripture. How many times do we ask God if he knows whats happening in our lives or rather if he cares whats happening in your lives. Lets face it life is just plain painful (sometimes). What I love about this scripture God acknowledges the pain and suffering we face. He sees our financial concerns. He recognizes what we think we lack. Yet, through his vision... he sees the entire picture. And the fact of the matter is we are richer than some of the richest people in this world! Its not the money, its not the fame, its not even the power. You must be saying, "well than what is it?" ... It is Christ. Everything we need is inside of him.
Ok, ok, ok... so life is hard, it hurts. Heres the beautiful part: theres a time period for the pain. God has a watch and it says "10 days" and no more. Once that time is complete our Lord is going to say to Satan, ok buddy your done. MY TURN. Time for justice. And that is the day, the time, I am waiting for. Are you?
