Revelation 18:20 “Rejoice over her, you heavens! Rejoice, you people of God! Rejoice, apostles and prophets! For God has judged her with the judgment she imposed on you.”//
In God’s judgment, there will be rejoicing among His people.

1 Thessalonians 4:12 so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders.//
Unbelievers are watching me.

Revelation 16:10-11 The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues in agony and cursed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, but they refused to repent of what they had done.//
I will never understand why some people continue to curse God, rather than to love Him, repent, and become free of their sin.

Revelation 14:10-11 they, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.”//
The book of Revelation raises so many questions for me – will we be hearing, listening, and watching people suffer in Hell for eternity? That’s a sobering thought.

Revelation 13:10 “If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity they will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the sword they will be killed.” This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of God’s people.//
Patient endurance and faithfulness are tied together.

Revelation 10:4 And when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from heaven say, “Seal up what the seven thunders have said and do not write it down.”//
God does not reveal everything to everyone until He deems the time is right.

Revelation 8:1 When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.//
Apparently, time exists in Heaven. More importantly, the end of the world is such an enormous event that all of Heaven is silent.

Revelation 7:16-17 ‘Never again will they hunger; never again will they thirst. The sun will not beat down on them,’ nor any scorching heat. For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; ‘he will lead them to springs of living water.’ ‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’”//
What an amazing glimpse of paradise!!!

1 Thessalonians 3:13 May God strengthen your hearts.//
What a great prayer.

Revelation 6:15-17 Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free, hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. They called to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can withstand it?”//
It is impossible to hide from God. All will be exposed by the light in the end.
