John is ushered into the throne room of God Almighty!
No matter which of the 7 churches (chapter 2 & 3) an original reader was in, this other worldly, but glorious, picture of God would have filled them with awe. The criticisms of their church would have made sense in light of this new chapter.
God is holy and worthy of every bit of worship we can bring him and more.
We are very small and thoroughly unworthy to be in God’s presence. Only through Christ are we able to stand!
Don’t wait until heaven to give God the worship he deserves.
If we could just get a picture of God on his throne and what is going on it would inspire our hearts toward worship. God is worthy and when we see that we will worship.
Father God, you are worthy and I want to be your worshipper here an earth as it is in heaven.
