A QUIET MOMENT WITH GOD
LOVING THE LORD IS SIMPLE. HOWEVER, SOMETIMES WE CAN STRUGGLE WITH READING AND UNDERSTANDING GOD’S MESSAGE TO US. THIS BIBLE PLAN IS DESIGNED TO BE A DAILY GUIDE THROUGH GOD’S WORD, HIS PROMISES AND HIS DESIRES FOR OUR FUTURE, BOTH ON EARTH AND IN HEAVEN, AS TRUE BELIEVERS, Study – (Psalm 119:105).
WEEK # 8
Rev. 4:1-2, “After this I looked, and behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet, talking with me: which said, Come up hither, and I will show thee things which must be hereafter. And immediately I was in the Spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and One sat on the throne.”
Day 1
Deity of Jesus Christ is made open to the believer by revelation. 1st Timothy 6:14-16, “That thou keep this commandment without spot, unbreakable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: Which in his times, he shall show, who is the blessed and only Potentate. The King of kings, and the Lord of lords; Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen.”
Rev. 1:14, “His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire.”

| A throne in heaven.
Remember the song, “I know whom I believed.” |
Rev. 4:1-3,5-6
Ezekiel 1:1-24 |
This shows that there is a real door or gate on entrance into heaven. Come up hither that John heard, is coming again soon; as the Translation or Rapture occurs. When the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord; as the door in heaven open so let us home to heaven. Be sure nothing stops you from being a partaker and go up through the open door. Do you believe it? This thing will soon be upon us all. Be sure you are ready. | Ezekiel 1:25-28
Rev. 1:12-18 |
On the throne, he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and sardine stone ( beautiful pearls in looks): And there was a rainbow (redemption and promise, remember Noah’s flood and Joseph’s coat) round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. The glory of God is seen all over the throne and soon we shall be with the Lord. The craft or train to heaven is loading up spiritually. Be sure you are ready, for soon it will be too late to go with the Lord. Remember Matt. 25:10, While they went to buy, the bridegroom came and those that were ready went in with him and the door was shut. And the door in heaven was opened. Where will you be? | Rev. 1:1, “ Come up hither.” Meditate on what this means.
Rev. 1:18, “I am he that liveth, and was dead; and behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.” |
Day 2
Rev. 4, “And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.”

| The Four Beasts
Remember the song, “Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Host.” |
Rev. 4:-7-9
Ezek. 1: 1-14 |
These strange but beautiful and dynamic creatures are all around and very close to the throne of God. They are angelic beings, they talk, and worship the Lord non-stop. They know Him. Believe their first hand testimony of who is seated on the throne, Jesus Christ the Almighty God. These four beasts were full of eyes before and behind.
The first beast was like a lion, the second like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle. They never went backwards, they couldn’t go backwards. Because everywhere they went they were going forward. They were going forward all the time, either as a lion with the face of a lion, or as a man with the face of a man,or as a calf with the face of a calf or as a flying eagle with the face of the eagle. No backward movement, only forward movement. |
Isaiah 6:1-8 | The beast in the Bible, represents power. They were at the throne worshiping God.
Those four beasts mean four powers that come up out of the earth and those four powers were the four Gospels: Matthew, the lion, king, bold and stern. Mark, the calf or ox, the workhorse that can pull, the burden of the Gospel. Luke, with the face of a man, is cunning and shrewd, like a man. And John, the face of the eagle, is swift and goes to high heights. These represent the four Gospels that ring out in the presence of God. Remember that they had eyes in front and in the back, everywhere it went it reflected. They see everywhere they are going. That is the power of the Gospel as it goes out. Shrewd, swift, burden-bearing, stern and bold and kingly. That is the Gospel power. |
Rev. 4:8, “And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him: and they rest not day and night, saying Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is and is to come.” |
Day 3
Psalm 66:4-5, “All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name. Selah. Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in his doing toward the children of men.”

| The Four and Twenty Elders.
Remember the song, “Thou Art Worthy O Lord.” |
Rev.4:10-11
Psalm 40:8-11 |
These 24 elders represent raptured saints, wearing white raiments; garments of salvation tailored with the blood of Jesus Christ. Put on the Lord Jesus Christ, Rom. 13:14. Raiment of the saints, righteousness of Jesus Christ. Some of them spoke to John. They are the twelve patriarchs and the twelve apostles. | Eccl. 5:1-2
Psalm 98:1-9 |
These 24 elders are seated round about the throne; falling down before him that is seated on the throne. And worship him that liveth forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne. These people know him, listen to their testimonies of him on the throne. | Rev. 4:11, “Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.” |
Day 4
Rev. 5:1, “And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a Book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.”

| The Book, sealed with seven seals.
Remember the song, “When the roll is called up yonder.” |
Rev. 5: 1-5
Isaiah 29:7-19 |
Thank God for Jesus Christ, for he is the Lion of the tribe of Judah, The Root of David. No one, person or angel or the four beasts and elders around the throne were found worthy. To take the Book and to look at it; for it required holy and sinless blood. Only the blood of God. God is a Spirit and cannot shed blood, so he took the form of sinful man to shed his own sinless blood for the redemption of the world; whosoever will believe and accept Jesus Christ as Lord and the atonement for their sin, will be saved | Psalm 103:17-22.
Daniel 12:1-13 |
God had a small book written in and out but sealed with seven seals. Top secret and no one could look at it nor take the book, but Jesus the Lamb of God. Remember John 3:13, “ And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.”
This is the same God seated on the throne and is the Lamb of God standing before the throne; Jesus Christ the Lord God Almighty. Performing his act as God and Son. He is omnipresent |
Rev. 5:3, “And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.”
Dan. 12:4, “But thou. O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” |
Day 5
Hebrews 9: 26, “But now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself, “ The Lamb of God. Matt. 1: 21, “And shall brIng forth a Son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.” Believers out of every tongue, and people and nations.

| The Lamb
Remember the song, “Nothing but the blood of Jesus.” |
Rev 5:6-8
Philippians 2:1-13. Psalm.104:1-9 |
In the midst of the throne and of the four beasts and the twenty four elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. (Study Rev.3:1; 1:4; 4:5; 5:6; John 4:24 and 1st Corinth.12:8-11), and you will find out who hath the seven Spirits of God and who the Lamb is, that took the book out of the hand of him that sat upon the throne. And when the Lamb had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odors, which are the prayers of saints. Your prayers and mine; so precious God preserved them in vials. Prayer of faith, according to his will. | John 1:26-36
Heb. 1:1-14 |
God is a Spirit, and the seven Spirits, is the same one Spirit, like a forked lightning in the sky. (Proverbs 20:27; Zech. 4:10, Study points). These seven eyes are seven anointed men of God. They are the seven stars in the Lord’s hand, the Church Age messengers, full of the Holy Ghost. The Lamb is the Holy Ghost and that is God and that is Jesus Christ the Lord: The Almighty God. | John 1:29, “Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” |
Day 6
Ephesians 5;19, ‘Speaking to yourselves in Psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.”

| The four and twenty elders, and the four beasts Worship and Testify.
Remember the song, “What a friend we have in Jesus.” |
Rev.5:9-10
Matt. 27:25-44 1st Chron. 16:8 |
The four beats and the four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, as the Lamb took the book that no one in heaven or earth or beneath the earth was found worthy to look on or to open and to loose the seals thereof. As they fell down, they each had harps and golden vials full of odors, which are the prayers of saints. If you consider yourself a saint; watch the kind of prayers you make; let them be faithful prayers of faith, because God stores them and answers them timely.
God knows all the prayers you will make to him and all the praises you will offer; let them be faithful and of faith. |
Matt. 27:45-54
Heb. 13:15 |
The four beasts and the four and twenty elders, sung a new song, saying,Thou art worthy to take the book, to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people and nations. And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. What a wonderful testimony of the Lamb in heaven, by those around the throne. He was slain on the Cross of Calvary. And only his blood can save and redeem all tongues and nationalities on earth if they repent and believe the Gospel. | Ephesians 5:20, “Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Jeremiah 17:14, “Heal me , O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.” |
Day 7
Rev.5:12,14 “Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing.– And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshiped him that liveth forever and ever.”

| Worship
Remember the song, “Redeemed.” |
Rev. 5:11-14
Psalm 100: 1-5 |
When the work of salvation had been fulfilled in heaven, there was unspeakable joy in heaven. There were voices of many angels round about the throne and the four beasts and the elders: the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands, praising and worshiping the Lamb. What a sight to behold. We shall soon be there to join in the worship of Our God Almighty; Jesus Christ. | Psalm 95:1-7
Rom. 12:1-21 |
What a wonderful display of joy and appreciation as every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, were all saying Blessing, and honor, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb forever and ever. That same person on the throne is the same person standing as the Lamb, Jesus Christ. Who only could take the book, look at it and open the seals. | Rev. 5:12, “Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing.” |
