Rev.# 31~9:13-21 SIXTH TRUMPET 11-21-09

Today were still talking about the {trumpet} judgments, the last 3 trumpet judgments are directed primarily towards mankind, they are called the {woe} judgments as they are far more horrific than the 1st 4 trumpet judgments that were primarily directed towards creation.

Last time we read and talked about verses 1-12 to do with the 1st {woe} trumpet judgment we saw the creatures from the abyss turned loose on mankind and their only purpose was to sting men the way scorpions do, they are to torment people for 5 months, people will be wishing that they could die but can’t.

Today were going to see another demonic group that numbers two million that are released from the Euphrates River and what their mission will be.

Ø Listen as I read verses 13-21.

13And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,

14Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.

15And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.

16And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.

17And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: -

and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.

18By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.

19For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt.

20And the rest of the “men” which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

21Neither repented “they” of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

13And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,--

We’re not told who this voice is but it is from the 4 horns of the “Golden Altar”.

Probably the same angel that we read about in --

8:3-4 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was

given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the

golden altar which was before the throne.- 4And the smoke of the incense, which came with

the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel’s hand.

The golden altar in the Temple, and in the tabernacle as well, was placed directly before the veil, which hid the Holy of Holies.

These “woe” trumpet judgments are the answer to the prayers of the Martyred tribulation saints as they’re crying out for God to avenge them in --

6:9-10 9And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: 10And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?

The voice is that of God or one that He has appointed to be His messenger. The four horns indicate the whole strength of the altar of intercession on behalf of the prayers of the Martyred saints. God always keeps His Word.

6:11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

--------------------------

14Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.

This angel instructed the angel who had blown the sixth trumpet to release the four

angels who were bound at the Euphrates River. Their fallen angels since good angels are

not bound.

God had a purpose for these unclean spirits to fulfill and ordered their release to

accomplish His will. He imprisoned them when Satan rebelled against Him.

The Euphrates is mentioned twice in Revelation, here and in 16:12.
