Revelation 16

Good Morning “Students of End Times.”  Today we are in Revelation 16.  

As impossible as it seems, the  final wrath of God will bring a new level of suffering and misery to the earth.

1st, all of those with the Mark of the Beast get “festering sores.”

2nd, the remaining seas turn to blood -  God puts an end to all sea life.  

3rd, remaining fresh water turn to blood.  Question… How long can someone survive without water to drink? A few days maybe?  This is just one of the indications that the bowl judgments likely occur at the end of the seven years.  

4th, the sun was allowed to scorch people with fire.” Revelation‬ ‭16‬:‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

5th, casts the earth into darkness - intense darkness that causes unbearable pain.
Why pain?  It’s not just physical darkness - it’s spiritual darkness - total separation from God and His comfort.  

We only thought things were bad before this… this is now hell on earth.  

“They were seared by the intense heat and they cursed the name of God, who had control over these plagues, but they refused to repent and glorify him.” Revelation‬ ‭16‬:‭9‬ ‭NIV‬‬

The final two judgments are part of a larger set of events - The War of Armageddon, which ends the Tribulation and leads to Christ’s Return.

6th - The great river, the Euphrates, is dried up to prepare the way for the Kings of the East.

“Then I saw three impure spirits that looked like frogs; they came out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet. They are demonic spirits that perform signs, and they go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them for the battle on the great day of God Almighty.”
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭16‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭NIV‬‬

The demons call the seven kings of the earth to gather their military’s in preparation for war against God.  Spoiler alert… They CAN’T and WON’T win!!!

7th, “The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air, and out of the temple came a loud voice from the throne, saying, “It is done!” Revelation‬ ‭16‬:‭17‬ ‭NIV‬‬

What then?  The biggest earthquake the world has ever seen and 100 pound hail stones.  

Seriously… you gotta read it for yourself!  Love you all!  Dig in!
