Good Morning Friends,
Jesus is worthy!
Jesus is worthy to open the scroll that
unveils the final triumph of God over evil. No one else is worthy to do that!
“Then one of the elders said to me, ‘Do not
weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of
Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed.
He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.’” (Revelation 5:5)
When Jesus accepted the scroll from God
heaven broke out in praise.
The 24 elders and the 4 creatures worshipped
with a new song to declare His worthiness.
“And when he had taken it, the four living
creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a
harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers
of the saints. And they sang a new song: ‘You are worthy to take the scroll and
to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased
men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation. You have made
them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the
earth.’” (Revelation 5:8-10)
Then the angels, a choir that is beyond being
numbered, took up the theme and sang.
“Then I looked and heard the voice of many
angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten
thousand. They encircled the throne and the living creatures and the elders. In
a loud voice they sang: ‘Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power
and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!’”
(Revelation 5:11-12)
And the circle of praise grew larger still as
every creature in heaven, on earth, under the earth, on the sea, every creature
lifted its voice in praise.
“Then I heard every creature in heaven and on
earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, singing: ‘To
him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and
power, for ever and ever!’” (Revelation 5:13)
Animals, men, angels, even creatures that
can’t be described will give praise to the Lamb, to Jesus, our Savior. He is
the One who is worthy!
His, by Grace,
Steve
