Bible Lesson: Cherished Promises To
The Child Of God: To The One Who Is A Overcomer.
Bible Text:
Revelation 2:7-17 KJV
7 He that hath
an ear, let him hear what The Spirit saith unto the churches; To him
that overcometh will I give to eat of The Tree Of Life, which is in
the midst of the paradise of God.
8 And unto the
angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith The First and
The Last, which was dead, and is Alive;
9 I know thy
works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know
the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are
the synagogue of Satan.
10 Fear none of
those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast
some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have
tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give
thee a Crown Of Life.
11 He that hath
an ear, let him hear what The Spirit saith unto the churches; He that
overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.
12 And to the
angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith He which
hath the sharp sword with two edges;
13 I know thy
works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou
holdest fast My name, and hast not denied My faith, even in those
days wherein Antipas was My faithful martyr, who was slain among you,
where Satan dwelleth.
14 But I have a
few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the
doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumbling block before
the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to
commit fornication.
15 So hast thou
also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes, which thing I
hate.
16 Repent; or
else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with
the sword of My mouth.
17 He that hath
an ear, let him hear what The Spirit saith unto the churches; To him
that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give
him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man
knoweth saving he that receiveth it.
The Lord's Request:
14 “...I have
a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the
doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumbling block before
the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to
commit fornication.
15 So hast thou
also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes, which thing I
hate.

else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with
the sword of My mouth.

an ear, let him hear what The Spirit saith unto the churches; To him
that overcometh will I give to eat of The Tree Of Life, which

an ear, let him hear what The Spirit saith unto the churches; He that
overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.

overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall
go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of My God, and the
name of the city of My God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down
out of heaven from My God: and I will write upon him My new name.

KJV
35 Who shall
separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress,
or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is
written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are
accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all
these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us.
38 For I am
persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor
principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height,
nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from
the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all
things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an
incorruptible.
26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one
that beateth the air:
27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest
that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be
a castaway.

the faith:

them that love Him.

cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which
doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that
is set before us,

the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the
shame, and is set down at The Right Hand Of The Throne Of God.
Prayer:
