There is no substitute for the preaching and teaching of God's Word. Each weekday on enjoying the journey, Scott Pauley leads us in a brief study of Scripture.

Today, on the weekend pulpit, we are happy to share a full-length Bible message given through Scott's pulpit ministry. These messages were recorded live in a local church or gospel event in recent days. It is our prayer that the message will be a help to you today. We'll open the Word of God with me again tonight to the book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ,

and we pick up right where we left off in Revelation chapter number five.

And before I read the closing verses of this amazing chapter, let's just review for a second.

Shall we do that?

You back up one page in your Bible to the final verse of

Revelation chapter number three. We began here in the Bible study hour, and we dealt with the last

church. We may be the last church. I think we're living in the last days. We may be living in the

last of the last days, and he that hath an ear should be hearing what the Spirit says to the churches.

Then we studied the opening 11 verses of Revelation chapter 4 and this powerful thought of

after this, what will come after this? There is an after this and we should not be living now for

now. We should be living now for then. We should be living now

for the moment that we see the Lord face to face. Then in the evening meeting on the Lord's

day, we came to the opening seven verses of Revelation chapter 5. Who in the world? Who in the

world? Only Jesus. Only Jesus. No man. Only Jesus is worthy of our praise. Only Jesus can wipe

away the tears. Only Jesus can make right the wrongs in this world. Then last evening, we

concentrated on a verse, really on a phrase found in Revelation 5 and verse number 8, the prayers of the saints. I wonder, I really wonder,

don't raise your hand, you don't have to tell me, but I wonder how many of you were more

conscious today of praying and talking to the Lord. And when you woke up this morning,

when you walked through the day, did you turn the conversation to prayer?

Did you look to the Lord?

Because it's one thing to preach about prayer and quite another thing to pray, isn't it?
