7 Angels with 7 plagues

Rev. 15:1

Then I saw another sign in heaven, great and amazing, seven angels with seven plagues, which are the last, for with them the wrath of God is finished.

 

What a fearful thing is the wrath of God! In this chapter John saw what looked like a sea of glass mingled with fire. Beside this sea were those who had conquered the beast [faithfully stood for Jesus], its image, and its number [666]standing with the harps of God in their hands singing the song of Moses and the Lamb [a song of redemption],

 

 "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."

 

After this, he saw the sanctuary of the tent of witness in heaven opened. Out of it came 7 angels with 7 plagues. The angels were clothed in pure white linen with golden sashes around their chests. One of the 4 living creatures gave these angels 7 bowls full of the wrath of God. At this moment the sanctuary was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from His great power. No one could enter the sanctuary until the 7 plagues of the 7 angels was finished.

 

Not only were there 7 plagues but added to that were 7 bowls of the wrath of God. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. So many 7's...God's wrath is perfectly complete. When He is done, nothing will be left unpunished. He is faithful to His words, and His words included His wrath.

 

Father,

This chapter is short, and I see that nothing else needs to be said once Your wrath is unleashed. Thank You for saving me and sparing me from this great wrath. You are great and marvelous. Your ways are just and true. You alone are holy and worthy of all worship.

In Jesus name,

Amen
