Have you ever heard or sung the praise song
– Salvation Belongs to Our God? It has a catchy chorus “Be to our God, forever
and ever, Amen.” (Several different Christian singers and groups have
recordings of it.) Whenever I sing it at
church, I usually hum the chorus in my head the next day or so.
How does this relate to our study of
Revelation? Well, the words to this song come right out of Revelation 7!
Revelation 7:9-12 9 After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude
that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the
throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm
branches in their hands. 10 And
they cried out in a loud voice:
“Salvation
belongs to our God,
who sits on the throne,
and to the Lamb.”
who sits on the throne,
and to the Lamb.”
11 All the angels were standing around the throne and around the
elders and the four living creatures. They fell down on
their faces before the throne and worshiped God,12 saying:
“Amen!
Praise and glory
and wisdom and thanks and honor
and power and strength
be to our God for ever and ever.
Amen!”
Praise and glory
and wisdom and thanks and honor
and power and strength
be to our God for ever and ever.
Amen!”
Are you
humming the song yet??? I am.
