DCLM Daily Manna 27 March 2024 Devotional By Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — Time Of Judgment
TOPIC: Time Of Judgment (DCLM Daily Manna 27 March 2024)
KEY VERSE: “Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest” (Revelation 15:4).
TEXT: Revelation 15:1-8 (KJV)
1 And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.
2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.
4 Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.
5 And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened:
6 And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.
7 And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.
8 And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.
MESSAGE:
It was the height of summer in the United Kingdom and then the sky darkened. On the evening of July 21, 2021, hailstones the size of golf balls fell from the sky, smashing windows and battering cars. While the hailstorm was unusual in its severity, it was mild compared to a hailstorm that struck Calgary in Canada in June 2020. Hailstones the size of tennis balls caused damage to at least 70,000 homes and vehicles, destroyed crops and left the area facing a $940 million repair bill.
It is thus instructive to pitch those fearful incidents against the more terrible ones awaiting the sinful world at the end of this age as captured in some sections of the book of Revelation. Our passage reveals some fearful and eschatological happenings after the rapture of the saints. Apostle John was shown two distinct groups of people: one was of victorious believers standing on the sea of glass, having the harps of God (verse 2). After that came the picture of seven angels with seven plagues and four beasts handling vials full of the wrath of God to them. These continued to afflict the people who rejected God’s call for salvation.
Very few people like to talk or think about judgment day. Some believe life ends at death. Others posit that a good God will not judge His people in the manner that Christians proclaim. They proffer that earth is merely a rehearsal for eternal life, and none would be exempted. All these are opposed to what the Bible says.
The day of judgment is fast approaching. You can be ready for judgment day today by repenting of your sins and accepting Jesus as your Lord and Saviour.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
How prepared are you for His judgment?
