Revelation 4:1-11.

Revelation 4:1-11.

1 At this point I had another vision and saw an open door in heaven.
And the voice that sounded like a trumpet, which I had heard speaking
to me before, said, "Come up here, and I will show you what must
happen after this." 2 At once the Spirit took control of me. There in
heaven was a throne with someone sitting on it. 3 His face gleamed
like such precious stones as jasper and carnelian, and all around the
throne there was a rainbow the color of an emerald. 4 In a circle
around the throne were twenty-four other thrones, on which were seated
twenty-four elders dressed in white and wearing crowns of gold. 5 From
the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings, and peals of thunder.
In front of the throne seven lighted torches were burning, which are
the seven spirits of God. 6 Also in front of the throne there was what
looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal. Surrounding the throne
on each of its sides, were four living creatures covered with eyes in
front and behind. 7 The first one looked like a lion; the second
looked like a bull; the third had a face like a human face; and the
fourth looked like an eagle in flight. 8 Each one of the four living
creatures had six wings, and they were covered with eyes, inside and
out. Day and night they never stop singing: Holy, holy, holy, is the
Lord God Almighty, who was, who is, and who is to come." 9 The four
living creatures sing songs of glory and honor and thanks to the one
who sits on the throne, who lives forever and ever. When they do so,
10 the twenty-four elders fall down before the one who sits on the
throne, and worship him who lives forever and ever. They throw their
crowns down in front of the throne and say, 11 "Our Lord and God! You
are worthy to receive glory, honor, and power. For you created all
things, and by your will they were given existence and life."

Father God, forgive my sins. Thank you for sending Jesus Christ down
to die on the cross and for shedding his blood for me. Three days
later you resurrected him. I accept that. I invite Jesus Christ into
my heart as my Lord and savior. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

God bless you.
