TGIF

Revelation 5:1-3  And I saw in the right hand of Him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.  And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?  An no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.
If you read this verse carefully, you'll find that MAN is not able to open the book and loose the seals.  The seals are the judgements and cataclysms which are to befall this earth.  A time of unprecedented turmoil and tribulation will occur but it will NOT be because of MAN.  Let this sink in and appreciate the application.  MAN will not be able to destroy this planet.  MAN will not usher in the end of times.  MAN will not bring upon this planet such a destruction that we wipe ourselves out, not even Satan himself.  No!  Only ONE is able to loose those kinds of things.  Verse six goes on to tell us that the Lamb that was slain, we know Him as Jesus, is the ONLY One worthy to open the book.  Our Savior has ALL authority and power.  Our Savior holds the keys of hell and death.  Our Savior has the power and authority to lock and to loose.


Considering this truth, why would we look anywhere else?

Hebrews 12.2  Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of faith...


Keep your eyes on Jesus!
