Revelation

Revelation 2:26–29

²⁶And to the one who overcomes and continues in My work until the end, I will give authority over the nations. ²⁷He will rule them with an iron scepter and shatter them like pottery^a — just as I have received authority from My Father. ²⁸And I will give him the morning star.

²⁹He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’’
