Revelations 4

Why does John used jewels to describe what he say in the heavenly throne room? John must have had a tough time putting what he saw into words.

God is in the center of the scene. He is the only ruler deserving of honor, praise, and glory. All politicians make promises that they either cannot fulfill or do not intend to fulfill. But God has done much and he will do all that he promises. We can trust in his word despite what circumstances often look like.

God is freely and happily given praise by all those present. Let us do the same, freely and joyfully!

Lord, we know that you are bigger that our problems. And you will safely guide us to your home where we may praise you like the seraphim. Lord grant us faith!
