Jerry begins his message by emphasizing the importance of a prepared heart to receive God's word during the upcoming conference. He uses the analogy of a farmer plowing crusty ground to illustrate the need for hearts to be open and receptive. Jerry highlights the importance of serving with the right heart, viewing it as a privilege rather than a duty. He then transitions into a message based on Revelation, focusing on John's exile to Patmos and the concerns he had for the persecuted church. Jerry draws parallels to the present day, suggesting that we, like John, need a new perspective—a heavenly one—to navigate challenging times and remain focused on God's ultimate purpose. He emphasizes the need for revelation and the importance of seeing the church through God’s eyes. To illustrate this, Jerry delves into the imagery of Revelation, describing John's vision of the glorified Christ, the seven churches, the throne, the Lamb, and the new Jerusalem. He concludes by urging listeners to seek God's perspective, remain faithful to the heavenly vision, and find encouragement in God's promise to complete his work.
