Chapter Study & Analysis
Overview
Revelation 22 depicts the river of the water of life and the tree of life. It contains Christ’s final warning and promise: "Behold, I come quickly." The Bible concludes with an invitation to "come" and a benediction of grace.
CONTEMPORARY APPLICATIONS
1. The Water of Life: The invitation is open: "whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely" (v. 17). The Gospel remains a message of free grace to all who thirst for God.2. The Imminence of His Coming: Jesus says three times in this chapter, "I come quickly" (v. 7, 12, 20). We must live with a "Maranatha" heart, expecting His return at any moment.
3. Guarding the Word: A solemn warning is given against adding to or taking away from the words of this book (v. 18-19). We must handle the Scriptures with the utmost reverence and integrity.

FORMAL PRAYER
