Sermon Text
Revelation 7:9 After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no
one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the
throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their
hands,
Revelation 7:10 and crying out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation belongs to our
God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”
Revelation 7:11 All the angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four
living creatures, and fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God,
Revelation 7:12 saying: “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom, Thanksgiving and
honor and power and might, Be to our God forever and ever. Amen.”
Revelation 7:13 Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, “Who are these
arrayed in white robes, and where did they come from?”
Revelation 7:14 And I said to him, “Sir, you know.” So he said to me, “These are the
ones who come out of the great tribulation, and washed their robes and made them
white in the blood of the Lamb.
Revelation 7:15 Therefore they are before the throne of God, and serve Him day
and night in His temple. And He who sits on the throne will dwell among them.
Revelation 7:16 They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore; the sun shall
not strike them, nor any heat;
Revelation 7:17 for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them
and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from
their eyes.” , …
I. THE STATUS OF THE MULTITUDE IN HEAVEN.
Revelation 7:9 After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one
could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues,…”
II. THE SACRIFICE OF THE MULTITUDE IN HEAVEN.
Revelation 7:14 “… These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation,
III. THE SONG OF THE MULTITUDE IN HEAVEN.
Revelation 7:10 and crying out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation belongs to our
God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”
John 1:12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become
children of God, to those who believe in His name:
John 1:13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of
man, but of God.
Salvation is the theme of their worship, just like it is of ours.
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that SAVED a wretch like me
This our song of victory, Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
Life now is sweet and my joy is complete, For I’m saved, saved, saved!
Psalm 27:1 The Lord is my light and my salvation;
Psalm 40:16 Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; Let such as
love Your salvation say continually, “The Lord be magnified!”
Psalm 96:2 Sing to the Lord, bless His name; Proclaim the good news of His
salvation from day to day.
Psalm 118:14 The Lord is my strength and song, and He has become my salvation.
Psalm 118:15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation …”
Revelation 7:11 All the angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four
living creatures, and fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God.
The question is not whether we should kneel in our worship services today.
The question is, shall we who will all kneel one day also kneel now as well?
Revelation 7:12 saying: “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom, Thanksgiving and
honor and power and might, Be to our God forever and ever. Amen.”
IV. THE SERVICE OF THE MULTITUDE IN HEAVEN.
Revelation 7:15 Therefore they are before the throne of God, and serve Him day and
night in His temple. And He who sits on the throne will dwell among them.
A complete tablet Temple Warning sign was found in a archaelogical dig in 1871
and written in Greek and Latin was the following inscription::
“No stranger is to enter within the balustrade round the temple and enclosure.
Whoever is caught will be himself responsible for his ensuing death.”
Ephesians 2:14 For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has
broken down the middle wall of separation,
Ephesians 2:15 having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of
commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man
from the two, thus making peace,
Ephesians 2:16 and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through
the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity.
Ephesians 2:17 And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to
those who were near.
Ephesians 2:18 For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.
V. THE SHEPHERDING OF THE MULTITUDE IN HEAVEN.
Revelation 7:16 They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore; the sun shall
not strike them, nor any heat;
Revelation 7:17 for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them
and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from
their eyes.”
Psalm 23:1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
Psalm 23:2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the
still waters.
Squire Parsons wrote a gospel song “Sweet Beulah Land”
No sad goodbyes will there be spoken
And time won’t matter anymore
2 Corinthians 4:17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us
a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory,
2 Corinthians 4:17 (Voice) You see, the short-lived pains of this life are creating for us
an eternal glory that does not compare to anything we know here.
2 Corinthians 4:17 (EASY) We have these little troubles that continue for a short time.
But as a result, we will receive the great things that God has prepared for us.
Those great things are much more important than our little troubles. And God’s great
things will continue for ever!
