And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.
—Revelation 7:10 (KJV)
From the voices of those who know, the message is clear! God reigns, and with his rule comes salvation. This is because the Lamb of God, Jesus the Messiah, was willing to be slain. Yet, in his sacrificial death, Jesus triumphed over death, sin, Satan, and hell for us. Because of Jesus' faithfulness and his work as "the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world," we can be assured that when he returns, we will share life with him, in glory, forever.
Loving Father and Sovereign God, thank you for providing salvation by extending your grace to us in Jesus. Thank you, Jesus, for offering yourself to be the Lamb sacrificed for our sins. We look forward to your return and seeing you face to face while praising you with the angels, the martyrs, the elders around the throne, and other faithful Christians before the throne of God. To you, O God, and to the Lamb belong all praise, honor, glory, and thanks, both now and forever. Amen.
