December 31 - Praise that Never Ends · Bible Chat Devotional

• 0:02
  Welcome to Bible Chat, where we have devotional conversations
• 0:06
  rooted in Scripture and relevant for today, December 31st.
• 0:11
  Praise that never ends. Have you ever experienced a
• 0:14
  moment of worship, joy, or beauty so strong it felt like
• 0:17
  time slowed down? Like your chest felt full and
• 0:20
  your worries got quiet for a second?
• 0:22
  Those moments are like little previews of what's coming.
• 0:25
  Psalm 150 verse 6 says, let everything that has breath
• 0:29
  praise the Lord. Praise the Lord, not some
• 0:32
  people, not just church people. Everything that breathes praise
• 0:36
  is the purpose of your lungs. And Revelation chapters 21 to 22
• 0:40
  show the future of God's people. Revelation chapter 21 verse 22
• 0:45
  says, and I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord
• 0:49
  God the Almighty and the Lamb. There's no need for a building
• 0:52
  to contain God because His presence fills everything.
• 0:56
  Then Revelation chapter 22 verses 4 to 5 says they will see
• 1:00
  His face and night will be no more.
• 1:02
  No more darkness, no more distance, no more waiting face
• 1:06
  to face with God forever. That means your praise now is
• 1:10
  practice for your forever. Every time you worship in a hard
• 1:13
  season, you're declaring that God is still worthy.
• 1:16
  Every time you praise when you're tired, you're choosing
• 1:19
  heaven's rhythm over the world's heaviness.
• 1:21
  And every time you set your hope on that future, no night, no
• 1:25
  pain, no separation. You find strength to endure
• 1:28
  right now. So as the year closes, don't
• 1:30
  just think about what you're leaving behind.
• 1:33
  Think about what you're living toward a future where praise
• 1:36
  never ends, because God's presence never ends.
• 1:39
  And you can start living that today.
• 1:40
  With every breath. Let's pray.
• 1:43
  Heavenly Father, thank you for giving me breath and a reason to
• 1:46
  praise. Thank you for the promise of a
• 1:48
  future where there is no more night and where I will be with
• 1:50
  You forever. Teach me to praise You now, not
• 1:54
  only with songs, but with my whole life.
• 1:56
  Let my worship be real, steady and full of hope.
• 1:59
  And help me live like heaven is my home in Jesus name, Amen.
• 2:04

  with God in today's three-year Bible reading plan, Psalm 150
• 3:17
  World English Bible. Praise Yah.
• 3:20
  Praise God in His sanctuary, Praise Him in His heavens for
• 3:22
  His acts of power. Praise Him for His mighty axe.
• 3:26
  Praise Him according to His excellent greatness.
• 3:28
  Praise Him with the sounding of the trumpet.
• 3:30
  Praise Him with harp and lyre. Praise Him with tambourine and

• 3:36
  instruments and flute. Praise Him with loud cymbals.
• 3:39
  Praise Him with resounding symbols.
• 3:41
  Let everything that His breath praise Yah, Praise Yah.
• 3:44
  Revelation 21 to 22 World English Bible I saw a new heaven
• 3:49
  and a new earth, for the 1st heaven and the first earth have
• 3:52
  passed away, and the sea is no more.
• 3:54
  I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem coming down out of
• 3:58
  heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband.
• 4:02
  I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, Behold, God's
• 4:05
  dwelling is with people, and he will dwell with them, and they
• 4:09
  will be his people, and God himself will be with them as
• 4:12
  their God. He will wipe away every tear
• 4:14
  from their eyes. Death will be no more.
• 4:16
  Neither will there be mourning nor crying nor pain anymore.
• 4:19
  The first things have passed away.
• 4:21
  He who sits on the throne said, Behold, I am making all things
• 4:24
  new. He said right, for these words
• 4:27
  of God are faithful and true. He said to me, I am the Alpha
• 4:31
  and the Omega, the beginning and the end.
• 4:33
  I will give freely to him who is thirsty from the spring of the
• 4:36
  water of life. He who overcomes, I will give
• 4:39
  him these things. I will be his God and He will be
• 4:41
  my son. But for the cowardly,
• 4:44
  unbelieving sinners, abominable murderers, sexually immoral
• 4:47
  sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their part is in the lake
• 4:51
  that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.
• 4:55
  One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls which were
• 4:57
  loaded with the seven last plagues, came, and he spoke with
• 5:01
  me, saying, Come here, I will show you the bride, the Lamb's
• 5:04
  wife. He carried me away in the Spirit
• 5:06
  to a great and high mountain and showed me the holy city,
• 5:09
  Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, having the
• 5:12
  glory of God. Her light was like a most
• 5:15
  precious stone, like a Jasper stone, clear as crystal, having
• 5:19
  a great and high wall with 12 gates, and at the gates 12
• 5:23
  angels and names written on them, which are the names of the
• 5:25
  12 tribes of the children of Israel.
• 5:28
  On the east were three gates, and on the N 3 gates, and on the
• 5:31
  South 3 gates, and on the West 3 gates.
• 5:35
  The wall of the city had 12 foundations, and on them 12
• 5:38
  names of the 12 apostles of the Lamb.
• 5:40
  He who spoke with me had for a measure a golden Reed to measure
• 5:43
  the city, its gates and its walls.
• 5:46
  The city is square. Its length is as great as its
• 5:49
  width. He measured the city with the
• 5:50
  Reed 12,012 stadia. Its length, width and height are
• 5:55
  equal. Its wall is 144 cubits.
• 5:58
  By the measure of a man, that is of an Angel.
• 6:01
  The construction of its wall was Jasper.
• 6:04
  The city was pure gold, like pure glass.
• 6:06
  The foundations of the city's wall were adorned with all kinds
• 6:10
  of precious stones. The first foundation was Jasper,
• 6:13
  the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the 4th emerald, the
• 6:17
  5th Sardonics, the 6th Sardius, the 7th Chrysalite, the 8th
• 6:20
  barrel, the 9th Topaz, the 10th Chrysopraze, the 11th Jasonth,
• 6:24
  and the 12th Amethyst. The 12 gates were 12 pearls
• 6:28
  each. One of the gates was made of 1
• 6:29
  Pearl. The street of the city was pure
• 6:32
  gold, like transparent glass. I saw no temple in it, for the
• 6:36
  Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
• 6:39
  The city has no need for the sun or moon to shine, for the very
• 6:42
  glory of God illuminated it, and its lamp is the Lamb.
• 6:46
  The nations will walk in its light.
• 6:49
  The kings of the earth bring the glory and honor of the nations
• 6:52
  into it. Its gates will in no way be shut
• 6:54
  by day, for there will be no night there, and they shall
• 6:57
  bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it, so that
• 7:00
  they may enter. There will in no way enter into
• 7:03
  it anything profane, or one who causes an abomination or a lie,
• 7:07
  but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of Life.
• 7:10
  He showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal,
• 7:14
  proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb in the
• 7:16
  middle of its St. on this side of the river, and on that was
• 7:20
  the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruits, yielding its
• 7:23
  fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for
• 7:26
  the healing of the nations. There will be no curse anymore.
• 7:29
  The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and His
• 7:32
  servants will serve Him. They will see His face, and His
• 7:35
  name will be on their foreheads. There will be no night, and they
• 7:38
  need no lamp, light or sunlight, for the Lord God will illuminate
• 7:42
  them. They will reign forever and
• 7:44
  ever. He said to me, These words are
• 7:46
  faithful and true. The Lord God of the spirits of
• 7:49
  the prophets sent His Angel to show to His bond servants the
• 7:52
  things which must happen soon. Behold, I am coming soon.
• 7:56
  Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this
• 7:59
  book. Now I, John, am the one who
• 8:01
  heard and saw these things. When I heard and saw, I fell
• 8:05
  down to worship before the feet of the Angel who had shown me
• 8:07
  these things. He said to me, You must not do
• 8:10
  that. I am a fellow bond servant with
• 8:12
  you and with your brothers the prophets, and with those who
• 8:15
  keep the words of this book. Worship God.
• 8:18
  He said to me, don't seal up the words of the prophecy of this
• 8:21
  book, for the time is at hand. He who acts unjustly, let him
• 8:25
  act unjustly still. He who is filthy, let him be
• 8:28
  filthy still. He who is righteous, let him do
• 8:31
  righteousness still. He who is holy, let him be holy
• 8:34
  still. Behold, I am coming soon.
• 8:37
  My reward is with me to repay to each man according to his work.
• 8:41
  I am the Alpha and the Omega, the 1st and the last, the
• 8:44
  beginning and the end. Blessed are those who do His
• 8:47
  commandments that they may have the right to the Tree of Life
• 8:50
  and may enter in by the gates into the city.
• 8:53
  Outside are the dogs, the sorcerers, the sexually immoral,
• 8:57
  the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and
• 9:00
  practices falsehood. I, Jesus, have sent my Angel to
• 9:03
  testify these things to you for the assemblies.
• 9:06
  I am the root and the offspring of David, the Bright and Morning
• 9:09
  Star, the Spirit and the Bride. Say, Come.
• 9:12
  He who hears, let him say, come. He who is thirsty, let him come.
• 9:16
  He who desires, let him take the water of life freely.
• 9:20
  I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of
• 9:23
  this book. If anyone adds to them, God will
• 9:26
  add to him the plagues which are written in this book.
• 9:29
  If anyone takes away from the words of the book of this
• 9:31
  prophecy, God will take away his part from the tree of life and
• 9:35
  out of the holy city which are written in this book.
• 9:38
  He who testifies these things says, Yes, I am coming soon,
• 9:42
  Amen. Yes, come Lord Jesus, the grace
• 9:44
  of the Lord Jesus Christ be with all the Saints.
• 9:47
  Amen. Thanks for joining us on Bible
