Praise the Lord – God is on His Throne

Praise the Lord – God is on His Throne
By Shirley R. Watts,

Praise the Lord!

After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven… Come up here and I will show you things which must take place after this.”

Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne.

And He who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald… Around the throne weretwenty-fourthrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads… And from the throne proceeded lightnings, thunderings, and voices. Seven lamps of fire were burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God” (Rev. 4). Amen!

Rapture

After John received the messages to the seven churches he was called up to Heaven to get a picture of the “things which must take place after this” “After this” is the Rapture of the Church. What a Day that will be when our Savior we shall see! We will attend the greatest worship service ever. We won’t be filing in and out, and call it worship. We will experience true worship. We will worship our Lord! Amen!

While we are in worship, the Seven Year Tribulation will be taking place here on Earth…in Sequoyah County Oklahoma and all around the world.

John Saw

He saw “One sat on the throne…And He who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald.” This was God the Creator on His Holy Throne. The rainbow emphasizes the “completeness of God’s faithfulness” NOT sexual immorality!!!

There John saw “Around the throne… twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones… twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes; with “crowns of gold on their heads.” These twenty-four elders represent the Church in Heaven. Yes! That is the True Believers! Are you truly born again?

“And from the throne proceeded lightnings, thunderings, and voices. This is indication of a “coming storm.”

The “Seven lamps of fire were burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God” (Isaiah 11:2).

There were “four living creatures” who worshiped God day and night. These are Cherubim. They signify the wisdom of God. They proclaim God’s holiness (Rev 4:5-8). They do not rest day or night, saying: “Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come!”

Every time they “give glory and honor and thanks to God, the twenty-four elders (Church) fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and they cast their before the throne saying: “You are worthy, O Lord, To receive glory and honor and power; For You created all things, And by Your will they exist and were created.”

This is a beautiful glimpse of God on His Throne. If you are a true child of God you will one day worship Him with the Heavenly host.

Warning

As the Church attends this worship service, the Judgment has come upon the Earth. The Seven Year Tribulation has started. Where are you? You do not want to be here! There will be no peace only chaos, famine, death, battles, locusts sting lie scorpions, so much more.

Jesus warns of this Judgment (Matt. 24-25), Daniel, Ezekiel, Zechariah and others also warn us. Sin and sinners will taste of the wrath of God. All who persecute the Church, Jews, and rejecters of Christ… His work and Word will taste the “rejection.” You have a choice! You can worship Him in Heaven or taste His wrath in the Tribulation and in Hell for all eternity.

Decision Time!

The only ones to see His Throne are the ones who visit the Cross, repent and allow Christ to lead you to the Father on the Throne. Church member are you born again?

Kneel at the Cross? Repent today! Heaven tomorrow!

“And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment” Heb 9:27 The unbeliever lives in darkness, in bondage to Satan! Jesus is the Light! John 1:1-14
