Revelation 7:9

“Salvation to our God”

The Bible says in Revelation 7:9-10, “After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes and palms in their hands; And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.”

During the war, famine, disease and death of the great tribulation while those on the earth are in woe what will be going on in heaven at that time is all the saints of God will be praising God for His salvation. The word salvation is a great word. To be saved from sin, to be saved from death, to be saved from the judgment of God how wonderful salvation is.

In Heaven we will be able to be thankful for our salvation in a way which is not possible on this earth. What a day that will be.

Revelation 7:11-12 says, “And all the angels stood round about the throne and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God. Saying Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.”

If you want to worship God here is a perfect example of how, given by the angels in heaven. First they fall down on their faces this symbolizes complete submission to God. Next they praise God by recognizing certain of his attributes: blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might.

To bless means to say good things about. The Bible says there is none good but God. If all men are sinners but God is good then we as men should spend our time saying good things about the good God. It is wise and good to give God glory to recognize His wisdom to be thankful to Him and recognize God is a God of power and might. This is what the angels in heaven do.

Revelation 7:13-14 says, “And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? And whence came they? And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.”

White robes symbolize the righteousness of Christ. Everyone who turns from his and her sins to Jesus is washed in the blood of the Lamb and is clothed in the righteousness of Jesus Christ.

Yes Jesus shed is blood on the cross of Calvary. Like a little lamb He was led to the slaughter. There is no greater blessing in all the world than to know this truth and to believe it.

The Bible has much to say a bout the righteousness of Jesus Christ. Righteousness is something that all human beings need. For there is none righteous no not one. All have sinned and come short of the glory of God and the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Revelation 7:15-17 “Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His temple: and He that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.”

Human beings were created by God to have fellowship with God. That is why being in heaven will be such a wonderful experience. The fellowship that human beings were meant to haven with Jesus in heaven we will have.

God shall wipe away all tears from there eyes. How much there is too look forward too as a Christian. Heaven will be a perfect place void of sorrow and suffering. We will have the capability of praising and serving God in ways we have never dreamed. How wonderful heaven will be.

Today is the day of salvation. If you have never turned from your sins to Jesus please do so now and you too can have heaven too look forward too as your final destiny.
