THE REVEALING - Inspired by Revelation Chapter 4

From Deanna:

In Chapter Four of The Revealing,

            Of Jesus Christ as Lord,

John was taken by The Spirit,

            Up through heaven’s door.

The Throne of God, he first did see,

            And One upon The Throne,

Whom all of earth and heaven owe,

            Their lives to God alone!

To John, God glowed with a brightness,

            Greater than eye can see,

An illuminating brightness,

            That makes all darkness flee!

What looked like an emerald rainbow,

            Haloed The Throne of God,

A halo circling around The Throne,

            Of God,The One we laud!

Surrounding this throne, The Throne of God,

            Were twenty-four other thrones,

Upon them sat God’s elders,

            Clad in garments white alone!

Crowns of gold were on their heads,

            Crowns that God put there,

They signify the rule and might,

            God’s given for them to rule fair!

From out of God’s throne comes lightning,

            And mighty rumbles of thunder,

For this is The Throne of God Most High,

            Whose voice tears rocks asunder!

In front of God’s throne, seven Torches blaze,

            These are The Seven Spirits of God,

And in front of God’s Throne,

            John’s eyes behold, a sea of crystal, finer than gold!

This sea looked clear as crystal, and I believe it signifies,

That in our God is a clarity, that sees through all disguise.

Around God’s Throne, four beings John saw,

            Centered on each side,

With eyes that see with intelligence,

            Before, behind, beside.

Nothing escapes their attention,

            For these creatures are full of eyes,

And day and night, their cry rings out,

            To The God who never dies!

Holy, Holy, Holy, is their constant cry,

            Holy, Holy, Holy,

To The God over earth and skies!

Our God shall reign forever, all will bow to Him,

            The God who gives us life and breath,

Who saved our souls from sin!

            The twenty-four Sanhedrin bow, to worship God always

For He is God over everything,

            Worthy, Worthy, is the cry they raise!

Worthy are You, Oh Lord our God,

            Is the Heavenly Sanhedrin’s chorus,

Worthy to receive all glory and praise,

            And all dominion over us!

Everything and everyone, are created by God’s own hand,

So bow and worship, man and beast, with earth and sky, and land!

Oh Lord I pray, give me eyes to see, and understanding too,

For I would dearly love to bow and worship only You!

Transform, I pray, what is lacking, so I can worship more,

With heart and hands and all I am, before You, Holy Lord!
