Dec 23 AM - First Baptist Church

C. WHAT IS HIS. 7Revelation 11:15, “Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices inheaven, saying, ‘The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lordand of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!’"He’s got the whole world in His hands. This is my Father’s world and He has just handedthe title deed to His Son and our Savior.1. It is His by Creation.John 1:3, "All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing wasmade that was made.”2. It is His by Redemption.Rev. 5:9, “have redeemed us to God by Your blood”In v.7, this views the great, culminating act of history, the act that will signal the end ofman’s day. The ultimate goal of redemption is about to be seen; paradise will beregained, Eden restored (Note Daniel 7:13­14)III. OBSERVE THE WORSHIP. 8­14The appearance of the Lamb causes praise to break out from everywhere in the universe.These are spontaneous outbursts of worship that result from the realization that the longanticipateddefeat of sin, death, and Satan is about to be accomplished.The curse will be reversed, the believing remnant of Israel will be saved, and the churchwill be honored, exalted, and granted the privilege of reigning with Christ.EXAMPLE: Church is on its way out; no, on its way out and up!A. WORSHIPFUL PROPHECY. 8a“each having a harp” – symbolized all of prophecy, which culminates in the events aboutto take place.(Note: II Kings 3:15; I Chron 25:1, 3, 6)B. WORSHIPFUL PRAYERS. 8b“golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints” – it’s Matthew6:10, “Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”It’s God’s answer to many long awaited prayers.4 - Pastor Johnny M.
