Revelation 15
A Magnificent Vista of God’s Judgment!
Good morning! This is Pastor Jerry Ingalls from New Castle First Baptist Church and today is Thursday, March 18.
Have you ever stood on the edge of the Grand Canyon or on the top of Clingmans Dome and found yourself awestruck by the scene set before you?
Revelation 15 shows us a vista of God’s mighty judgments. Listen to the praise and worship of the angelic watchers as they witness the majesty of God who sits upon the throne in verses 3-4,
And they sang the song of Moses, the bond-servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, “Great and marvelous are Your works, O Lord God, the Almighty; Righteous and true are Your ways, King of the nations! “Who will not fear, O Lord, and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy; For all the nations will come and worship before You, For Your righteous acts have been revealed.”
The angels’ response to God’s judgment of sin is praise and adoration. What is your response?
God loves you and wants only the best for you! Do you believe this about God and His judgment?
God knows that sin is not good for you, even when you think that what you are doing is best for you. It is our limited understanding of God that causes us to rebel against God’s best for our lives.
This is why we must make it our greatest ambition to know God. In knowing God, we will find ourselves in the loving embrace of a good father who desires to put His name on us and shine His glory through us.
Seize the moment and worship God in truth and spirit! Fear not for the Lord is with you and desires good for you and for all of His creation.
Let’s recite this week’s memory verse from Ephesians 4:1, “Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called.”
