SCRIPTURE READING:
Revelation 15:1-4
I saw in heaven another great and marvelous sign: seven angels with the seven last plagues—last, because with them God’s wrath is completed. And I saw what looked like a sea of glass glowing with fire and, standing beside the sea, those who had been victorious over the beast and its image and over the number of its name. They held harps given them by God and sang the song of God’s servant Moses and of the Lamb:
“Great and marvelous are your deeds,
Lord God Almighty.
Just and true are your ways,
King of the nations.
Who will not fear you, Lord,
and bring glory to your name?
For you alone are holy.
All nations will come
and worship before you,
for your righteous acts have been revealed.”
SIGNIFICANCE:
The LORD JESUS CHRIST is astoundingly victorious in every realm forever.
Dear Father, What an incomparable scene this is of the seven angels with the last seven plagues and those who had been victorious over the beast joining together to sing the song of Moses and the song of the Lamb, beginning with: “Great and marvelous are your deeds, Lord God Almighty!” All glory to Jesus, the One Who is Lord and Monarch of all, God in Whom all the fullness of the Godhead dwells among us, and the Almighty, as Jesus said of Himself in Revelation 1:8, “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.” I join those heavenly beings in singing that “Great and marvelous” are the deeds of Jesus Christ Who alone is the Lord God Almighty. I praise Him with my whole being that His deeds have always been great and marvelous. I am thrilled that the more I know of Him and His greatness, the more I want to know of Him. I pray that Your Spirit will now awaken the Church of all nations to the vast storehouse of the Lord God Almighty’s great-ness, so that we will fall on our faces in worship of and submission to Him. I pray these things in Christ’s almighty name. Amen.
