Most blessings come with a catch. But not this one.

In this episode of Footsteps of the Messiah, Bible teacher Chris Reighley uncovers the forgotten promise of Revelation 1:3—a blessing simply for reading, hearing, and keeping the words of prophecy. You don’t need a seminary degree or an end-times chart. You just need an open Bible and a willing heart.

With fresh insight from The Pilgrim’s Progress, we’ll see how Christian’s journey was shaped by what he read in the Book. In the same way, prophecy isn’t designed to spook us—it’s meant to steady us. It magnifies Christ, clarifies our future, and calls us to walk in readiness.

If you’ve ever avoided Revelation because it felt overwhelming, this episode will remind you: it’s not a mystery to decode—it’s a Savior to behold.

📖 Read it. Keep it. Be blessed by it.
