Hush

Revelation 8:1 KJV

And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.

Whatever would make heaven silent for even a moment must be of enormous consequence. I take the seven seals, trumpets and vials to run parallel to each other and that the seventh of each is a reference to that moment when Jesus Christ returns to bring and end to the Tribulation of this earth.

·         The power of this moment

·         The awe of this moment

·         The loss of lost lives in this moment and

·         The grace of God in those who are saved in this moment

brings a hush of silence upon heaven.

There are times when we too should see as the only appropriate response, utter silence. When God is at work, let all the earth be still.
