Revelation 6 - Praying God's Word

 

Please read Revelation 6. 

www.blueletterbible.org/nasb/rev/6/1/s_1173001

Notice the repeated phrase “when the Lamb broke….”

Meditate on verse 1a.

 

Then I saw when the Lamb broke one of the seven seals…

 

Keep in mind that while Revelation gives us a glimpse into end time events, it dramatically reveals who Jesus is.  In this chapter, rather than focusing on the various colored horses focus on the One in charge of the horses.  By simply breaking a seal, the Lamb sets into motion events impacting the entire world.  Be amazed by Him and His power. 

 

The last three verses of this chapter are tragic.  After the Lamb breaks six seals, notice how those left on the earth are cowering in caves, begging rocks to fall on them, so they do not have to face the Lamb.  Rather than run to “the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world” (John 1:29), they run from Him.  Do not let sin drive you to the pathetic place of running from God.  Run to Him before it is too late.

 

Pray for those, who need to be saved by the Lamb, not to be like those in Revelation 6:15-17 as their faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

 

“LORD, please make ___________ stop hiding

 in caves and among the rocks of the mountains.

 May they stop hiding from Your presence.

 Lamb of God, let them fall before Your throne and

receive Your salvation, so they do not

experience Your wrath.  For the great day

of their wrath will come, and

 they will not be able to stand without You.

For the sake of Your name, Jesus~”
