THE PRAYERS OF THE SAINTS

Date : Jan 01, 2000
Passage : Revelation 8:1~13
Keyverse : 4


1. The seventh seal is opened (1-5)

There was awesome silence when the Lamb opened the seventh seal. Then an angel stood before the golden altar like a high priest. He offered incense mixed with the prayers of the saints, and they went up to God. The prayers of God's people surely go up before God. Then the angel filled the censer with fire from the altar and hurled it to the earth. Thunder, lightning and a terrible storm broke loose on the earth. If men do not turn to God in repentance and prayer, then the wrath of his judgment will be poured out on them.

2. The trumpets and the woes (6-13)

The terrible time of judgment began. The first four angels blew their trumpets. one third of the earth was burned up; one third of the sea turned to blood; a star called Wormword fell and turned one third of the rivers bitter. At the sound of the fourth trumpet, one third of the sun, the moon and the stars turned dark. It was time for all men everywhere to repent.

Application: Lord, help me to offer the sacrifices of prayer to you daily.
One Word: God's people must pray and repent
