DECEMBER 6 READING…REVELATION 7
John tells us that six seals have been broken on the scroll, and he tells us what each seal brings. Now before the Lord breaks the seventh seal God instructs four angels to hold back the wind on all the earth. Then another angel carrying the seal of the living God is instructed to place a seal on the servants of the Lord from the tribes of Israel. He would seal 12000 of each of the 12 tribes of Israel. This seal would mark them and protected from what was about to come upon the earth. Then John sees into heaven again, and there is a great multitude of people standing before the throne of Jesus. They were in white robes, speaking of their redemption…and they had palm branches representing their praise. Their words were their testimony of the salvation of God the Father and Jesus the Son. While the angels stood around the throne the elders and the four living creatures fell on their face and worshiped God. One of the elders inquired who these were that were dressed in white. The answer is that these are the ones who come out of the great tribulation…they are redeemed and they have been made pure by the blood of Jesus. God has wiped away their every tear…and they shall be in the presence of Jesus forever. What a day that will be!
