First Reading
Revelation 14:1-3, 4b-5
Read this as the first big movement of the day. Notice what God is doing, who is speaking, and what part of the story or teaching should stay with you.
1And I saw, and lo a lamb stood upon mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty-four thousand, having his name, and the name of his Father, written on their foreheads.
2And I heard a voice from heaven, as the noise of many waters, and as the voice of great thunder; and the voice which I heard, was as the voice of harpers, harping on their harps.
3And they sung as it were a new canticle, before the throne, and before the four living creatures, and the leaders; and no man could say the canticle, but those hundred forty-four thousand, who were purchased from the earth.
