Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and his Christ, and he will rule forever and always.” Then the twenty-four elders, who were seated on their thrones before God, fell on their faces and worshipped God. They said, “We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty, who is and was, for you have taken your great power and enforced your rule. The nations were enraged, but your wrath came. The time came for the dead to be judged. The time came to reward your servants, the prophets and saints, and those who fear your name, both small and great, and to destroy those who destroy the earth.” Then God’s temple in heaven was opened, and the chest containing his covenant appeared in his temple. There were lightning, voices, thunder, an earthquake, and large hail. (Revelation 11:15-19, CEB)
The seventh seal was opened and the time came for the temple in heaven to be opened and the chest with the covenant was opened. It is time for the party of all eternity!
Doesn’t sound like the description of a really good party in my opinion, but it is only the beginning.
We will all be with God for all of eternity and the beginning of that has already happened so this is merely a step in the plan for us to continue to be with God.
Eternity started a long time ago and isn’t something we wait for, it is happening now.
So let us show love in everything we do to help others know they are loved.
Loving People. Loving God.
