Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near.
This verse doesn’t say “Blessed are those who read and understand these words.” It doesn’t say “Blessed are those who read and can explain these words.” Neither does it say “Blessed are those who read these words and can fathom all the mysteries that surround these words.”
Nope. Nothing like that at all. It gives three reasons for being blessed here. Reading the words, hearing the words, and taking them to heart. That’s it. You don’t have to understand them. You don’t have to fully comprehend how they all fit together with the prophets to be blessed by them.
So don’t be scared to read Revelation because it seems so deep. I’ve yet to meet anyone who truly understands it all. He’ll give us the understanding in due time. It might even be when it actually takes place. But at least then you’ll know, where many others who avoided the book will have no idea.
Let this be a focus in your time of meditation throughout the day. Until next time, Shalom.

lol..howdy sir simms50! I agree and it's a good thing He didn't say that we had to understand it! I'm not sure it CAN be understood.
I have done a couple of studies on it and yeah....I guess I am going to have to wait and see what happens!
Mrs. J did that too. She had tons of notes and made a big chart mapping everything out. I didn't because I'd heard scholars who had studied it for decades arguing about what things meant so I didn't even try but I HAVE read it.
I think it is good to pay attention and watch. There is a lot going on in the world these days that is worthy of paying attention to!
I agree totally sir simms50! Has the coronavirus hit you guys up there to any degree?
There have been no reported cases of it, however they announced today that the st pat's day parade will be postponed and the high school basketball tournament games will still be taking place with pretty much no one in attendance.
Have they shut down any large gatherings down there?
I haven't heard the local news for awhile but I'm sure they'll be curtailing all major events soon if they haven't already.
