December 17, Revelation 17
With the close of chapter 16, the judgment cycles of Revelation give way to some concluding aspects of the revelation of God’s plan for the world. Chapter 17 describes that because of the reign of evil, the governments and powers of this world will seem as though they are in charge. As citizens of Heaven, we must remember that God is always in charge. Every time we get discouraged, we ought to keep reading. Chapter 18 brings the fall of Babylon the Great.
