15 God’s Throne Room

Revelation 4:10–11

Chapter four identifies the characters in God's Throne assembled for this occasion.
The central character is God the Father. The subordinates are the four living creatures, which are the cherubim. Another subordinate group are the seven flaming torches, which are the angels that are about to carry out the commands to implement the Great Tribulation. The twenty-four elders represent the raptured and judged Church, which is in heaven safe in God's comfort and away from the Great Tribulation coming on the entire earth.

We have seen clearly that the Tribulation has three distinct purposes.
To Make and End of Wickedness and Wicked Ones. (Sinfulness) (Isaiah 13:9; 24:19-20)
To Bring About Worldwide Revival. (Matthew 24:14; Revelation 7:1-17)
To Break the Power of the Holy People. (Daniel 11-12 & 12:5-7; Ezekiel 20:33-38).
The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created (KJV).

We will cast our crowns to Christ in honor and worship to Him. This is the reason we were created. This is the reason we are on this earth. This is our destiny and few there be that find this strait gate. Are our lives in total worship to the creator or are we living for ourselves? The God of the universe wants our love and worship. How do we view our worship?
