God wants us to orient daily to the truth that He is seated above each moment.
Opening Revelation 4 & 5 is much like remembering that the blazing stars of a cloudless night are always there; we rarely see them. So, we must not let the rest of life distract us from the foundational truths we must never forget as we open our hearts and minds to God’s Word. Every moment of every day:
Heaven is Real. God is on THE Throne, and we are His servants.
As we open to Revelation 4:2-3, we see not only The Throne central to Heaven, we also see The One Seated on The Throne.
The One Seated
On The Throne
Every moment of life is lived before the eyes of God, Seated on His Throne.
No event of our life is missed by the One Seated there.
That is the message of the following sentence in this letter.
Please stand with me and listen with me to the voice of God from His Word, speaking through John, as we read together from the slide:
Revelation 4:2-3 (NKJV) Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne. 3 And He who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald.
The Throne is central to Heaven, but even more, The One Seated on the Throne is central to everything.
Every event in the world, every birth, death, disaster, war, social event, or secret meeting, unfolds before the eyes of That One Seated on The Throne.
Nothing is ever missed by the One Seated there.
