Events in Heaven Preceding the Great Tribulation
4:1 to 5:14

Chapters 4 and 5 reveal the throne in heaven. Whenever we see the throne, we always see the Trinity, and so it is here. We see ADONAI is sitting on the throne (4:2), God the Son, the sacrificial Lamb of God standing in the center of it (5:6), and the Holy Spirit ministering before it (4:5). Chapters 1 to 3 revealed Yochanan’s vision of Jesus Christ and the Church Age. Here, we are able to get a sneak preview of the events in heaven preceding the Great Tribulation, so this is a major turning point in the book of Revelation.

Dear Heavenly Father, We praise how You are one God, yet three Persons and You all work together perfectly! We love You and rejoice in how awesome You are! Thank You for being the father of all who chose to love and to follow You as their Lord. And Savior (John 1:12, 3:3; Romans 10:9-10). We love You! In the holy name of Your Son and the power of His resurrection. Amen
