Revelation 5:11-13

And I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels who were around the throne and around the living creatures and the elders. Their number was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands upon thousands. With a loud voice, they were saying: Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and blessing. I also heard every creature that is in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying: To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever.

Dear Heavenly Father,

This is an awesome picture you have given us, with all the angels singing. It is hard to contemplate the magnitude of the angels John saw. But, what an amazing sight. I can only imagine what heaven will be like. The only reason we get to see heaven is because your Son was slain for our sins. We do not deserve any of the blessings that come to us. Still, it is because of what Jesus has done and your great mercy and love that we now will get to witness this fantastic picture firsthand. To hear all creation singing praises to our KING of Kings, Jesus sitting on the throne and ruling over all creation. What a wonderful gift this is for us; the promise of everlasting life and the glory of heaven will be ours and is ours. All glory to our KING! To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever. Amen.

Vicar Roger Emmons

When you recognize what Jesus has won for you, the only thing you can do is stand up and rejoice.
