Today we are reading Revelation 14. In this chapter we read about the harvest of the earth. The keyword for this chapter is “dre-pa-non”. The definition is “sickle”. “Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and seated on the cloud one like a son of man, with a golden crown on his head, and a sharp sickle in his hand.” Revelation 14:14 ESV The agricultural parallel is interesting. The judgement is compared to the act and season of harvesting. Farmers are focused entirely on the harvest. Rainfall, temperatures, plant development and many other factors concern farmers as they anticipate the harvest. What factors are you concerned about as you read about the angel swinging his sharp sickle? As harvest time comes every Fall, Judgement Day will also come. How are you preparing for the harvest? May God give you an eternal focus today and every day. Pastor Tim
