Revelation 4:8 and 11 Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under their wings. Day and night they never stop saying: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is, and is to come.” … “You are worthy, our Lord and God to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being.”

The description of these creatures is other-worldly. John is trying to put into words what he is seeing. What I want to focus on is their praise and that of the 24 elders – ascribing to God the glory due to his name. Heaven is not earth, thank God! We don’t want to take anything from here to there to mar its beauty and purity. So it stands to reason that it is different and more marvelous. That is the purpose of the Book of Revelation – to give you a glimpse of the hereafter, the new order of things and the total revelation of Jesus Christ in all his glory.

You are in the Father’s house. There are places and creatures and things you will not have seen before. There is order, hierarchy and protocol in his house and everything is about him and his household, including his innumerable hosts of angels, elders, prophets, priests and kings and men from every tribe and nation. Then there is the King of Kings, our Lord Jesus – He is the center of attention! Picture the majesty and then listen!!! There is the sound of thunderous worship from every creature present. Can you hear it, even a little? Chorus after chorus – Holy, Holy, Holy are you Lord; Worthy is the Lamb! Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia …….. endless praise! Don’t you want to join in? That is one of the ministries of the Holy Spirit in your life … to help you to praise the Lord with heaven’s language. Glory to His name!
