1. John’s thanksgiving to Jesus for such great love that makes us kings and priests unto the Father.
Grace and peace to you from him who is, and who was, and who is to come, and from the seven spirits 5before his throne, and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. 6To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood, and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father--to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen. 7Look, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him,
even those who pierced him; and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of him. So shall it be! Amen. 8"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty." Rev. 1:4-8

They were dressed in white and had crowns of gold on their heads. 5From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder. Before the throne, seven lamps were blazing. These are the seven spirits [1]of God. 6Also before the throne there was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal. 7In the center, around the throne, were four living creatures…Day and night they never stop saying: "HOLY, HOLY, HOLY IS THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY, who was, and is, and is to come!"

Rev. 5:9-13

The time has come…for rewarding your servants…and for destroying those who destroy the earth." Rev. 11:15-18

7. Tribulation saints overcome the great wrath of the devil—possessing love that is victorious over the fear of martyrdom.
10 …"Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down. 11 They OVERCAME him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. 12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them!

Just and true are your ways, KING OF THE AGES. 4Who will not fear you, O Lord, and bring glory to your name? For YOU ALONE ARE HOLY. All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed."

He has condemned the great harlot who corrupted the earth by her adulteries. He has avenged on her the blood of his servants. 6Then I heard…a great multitude, like the roar of rushing waters and like loud peals of thunder, shouting: "Hallelujah! FOR OUR LORD GOD ALMIGHTY REIGNS. 7Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready. Rev. 19:1-2, 6-7

Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life. 20 (The Lord) says, "Yes, I am coming soon." (The Bride says,) Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!
