Revelation 4:1-11

The Throne in Heaven

1After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up here, and I will show you things which must be hereafter.

2And immediately I was in the spirit; and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.

3And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a carnelian stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in appearance like unto an emerald.

4And round about the throne were four and twenty thrones: and upon the thrones I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white clothing; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.

5And out of the throne proceeded lightning and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

6And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and behind.

7And the first living creature was like a lion, and the second living creature like a calf, and the third living creature had a face as a man, and the fourth living creature was like a flying eagle.

8And the four living creatures had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.

9And when those living creatures give glory and honour and thanks to him that sits on the throne, who lives forever and ever,

10The four and twenty elders fall down before him that is sitting on the throne, and worship him that lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,

11You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for you have created all things, and for your pleasure they are and were created.

Revelation 5:1-14

The Scroll in God’s Hand

1And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a scroll written inside and on the back, sealed with seven seals.

2And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the scroll, and to loose the seals thereof?

3And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the scroll, neither to look thereon.

4And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the scroll, neither to look thereon.

The Worthy Lamb

5And one of the elders said unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

6And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

7And he came and took the scroll out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.

8And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of saints.

9And they sang a new song, saying, You are worthy to take the scroll, and to open the seals thereof: for you were slain, and have redeemed us to God by your blood out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation;

10And have made us unto our God a kingdom and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

11And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the living creatures and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

12Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

13And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sits upon the throne, and unto the Lamb forever and ever.

14And the four living creatures said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshiped him that lives forever and ever.

GOD is transcendent, beyond this universe, creator of all. Living inside of us today.

Once you know Him you cannot keep quiet about GOD.

Worship, honour and glory to Him.

When you learn to praise GOD something happens. The radiance of Christ reflected in our life.
