Day 361 | Nehemiah reads God's Word to the people | Revelation 19: People in Heaven rejoice

Day 361 of the Holy Bible One Year CHALLENGE.

Nehemiah 7:4 to chapter 8 tells about rebuilding Jerusalem's walls and the people rediscovering God's laws. Nehemiah finds that the city is big but with few people. He organizes a census to identify the residents. Then, in chapter 8, Ezra the priest reads God's laws to the people. They listen attentively, and many feel sad because they haven't been following these laws. Nehemiah and Ezra encourage them to be joyful because understanding God’s words is a reason to celebrate. This story highlights the importance of knowing and following God's teachings.

Revelation 18:17 to 19:1-10 describes the fall of a great city, symbolizing evil, and the joy in heaven over its defeat. In 18:17-24, it tells about the city's sudden destruction and how the world mourns its loss, symbolizing the end of evil systems. Then in chapter 19, there's a shift to heaven, where there's great rejoicing. A large crowd in heaven praises God for judging evil and for the coming marriage of the Lamb, representing Jesus, to His people. This part of Revelation shows the contrast between the sadness over the fall of evil and the joy in heaven for God's justice and the celebration of good defeating evil.
