Revelation 19 - Introduction

The Marriage Supper of the Lamb Revelation Nineteen

All the hosts of heaven gave God glory for judging the great whore and avenging the blood of His saints. The mighty shout from heaven was, "Hallelujah," which means praise the Lord! God was praised for His splendor, majesty, power, dominion and authority. He was likewise praised because of His condemnation and punishment of that evil harlot.

Revelation nineteen pictured the marriage of the Lamb and His bride. God's people were to celebrate and give glory to Him because the marriage of the Lamb had come at last. His bride was prepared for Him and so now was a time to celebrate and ascribe to Him glory and honor. His glorious bride was dressed in the righteous acts of the saints. Just, godly, and upright conduct makes a beautiful garment for one to clothe himself with. Blessed are those that are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb.

John saw heaven opened, and Jesus, the Word of God, appeared in majesty and splendor. His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on His head are many crowns. He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood. He is called is The Word of God. He has a name inscribed, KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. Jesus is trustworthy, loyal and true. He wages war in righteousness. He overthrows the mighty men of the earth because of their wickedness.

The beast, the false prophet, and the kings of the earth, gather together to make war with the King of Kings and they are utterly destroyed by Him. Those that had led people astray from God were hurled alive into the fiery lake that burns with brimstone. The wicked are utterly overthrown by the almighty.
