Rev 10
This chapter is just between the blowing of the sixth and the seventh trumpets.
Like chpater 7, which is between the opening of the sixth and the seventh seal, chpater 10 is like a interlude, a transmission pause to a show.
What is the show about? It is about the blowing of the 6 trumpets. The 6 trumpets brought about distruction, a third of the world was destroyed, a third of mankind was killed and yet they did not repent.
Chapter 10 revealed a angel, an angel that appeared before John. He has a foot on land and a foot on sea. His description is similar to the glory of God.
10:1Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven, wrapped in a cloud, with a rainbow over his head, and his face was like the sun, and his legs like pillars of fire. 2 He had a little scroll open in his hand. And he set his right foot on the sea, and his left foot on the land, 3 and called out with a loud voice, like a lion roaring.
Can this be Jesus? why not. wrapped in cloud - glorious appearance. Fire and lion.
Why then this angel appear to John in this interlude and ask John to eat the scroll in His hand?
God has poured out His wrath from the 6 trumpets, He wanted to give mankind a pause, a chance to come back.
He has revealation and words to proclaim - v6 that there would be no more delay
John eat the scroll, which represent the words, sweet and bitter. He obeyed and literally like Ezekiel take in the word.
God stop the wrath in this interlude, the great angel appear (Jesus appear). What are you to do?
The angle physiscally appeared to be in power and in dominion on land and in sea.
The interlude showed God mercy, but how are we accepting it?
The word was given and how are we taking it. It was delivered by the angel, and yet why me to eat that scroll that will turn bitter in my stomach!
No more delay- the 6th trumpets was blown, the 7th coming. The word was given, and God said in verse 6 - let there be no delay.
Even in the midst of wrath, will the words that is sweeter thatn honey be accepted? We who knew Christ, see his glory, will we not accept His word which offers the salvation to the wrath that the world has seen.
I who has the word, should not be keeping it for myself. The interlude gave the chance for the word to be given. I pray that as God show and as God give the divine appointment, let the word be deleivered without delay.

Wrath after after and yet at the end of chapter 9 v20 The rest of mankind, who were not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands nor give up worshiping demons and idols of gold and silver and bronze and stone and wood, which cannot see or hear or walk, 21 nor did they repent of their murders or their sorceries or their sexual immorality or their thefts.
Even though I knew that these material things do not last, the work that we are doing will not endure forever, yet I go on and go on.. The pursuit has to be growing treasures in heaven.
My God is not wicked, but He loves us. But we have forsake Him, so so deep that nothing happen will turn us back to Him.
Lord, forgive me, do not harden my heart. I pray that I will come back and have a personal revival. Remember, "In all I do, do I grow deep in you"

As if there is not enough wrath from the seven seals. The seventh seals open to another seven trumpets of wrath.
Woe, woe woe. First is a thrid of the vegetation destroy - deforesation
Second, a third of the marine life destroyed - over fishing
Third, a third of the fresh water destroyed - acid rain
Fourth, a third of the heavenly destroyed - global warming
Who can stand and survive? Like the way the movies 2010, Deep Impact, Armegadon.. Can you image that we really live in that era?
The world and the worldy things will be washed away, then the weath or the power or the status that you have can save you. To each is on his own and the world will be chaos, without law and order, or of any government.
How to survive? In fact survival is not then, but before. Many of the saints are already in heaven.
3 And another angel came and stood at the altar with a golden censer, and he was given much incense to offer with the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar before the throne, 4 and the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose before God from the hand of the angel.
Like the way my wife has pray - chase after the eternal, that of which will last. The living God, the word of God.
Yes Lord, I am busy on and off, I enjoy them, but I pray that my focus is on you. I am the first generation, let the next generation be for you. Amen.
