Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

10:6 and swore by Him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and the things that are in it, the earth and the things that are in it, and the sea and the things that are in it, that there should be delay no longer,
10:7 but in the days of the sounding of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, the mystery of God would be finished, as He declared to His servants the prophets.
Revelation 10:2
10:2. He had a little book open in his hand. And he set his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land,
The Lord had a little book open in His left hand and lifted up His right hand to heaven.

There are two attitudes towards the revelation of the Word as follows:
God blesses you.
Revelation 10:5-7
10:5. The angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land raised up his hand to heaven

Revelation 10:2
10:2. He had a little book open in his hand. And he set his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land,
The Lord had a little book open in His left hand and lifted up His right hand to heaven.
It means that our attitude towards the open little book determines the movement of the hands of God as follows:

- Being stretched to help us.
There are two attitudes towards the revelation of the Word as follows:
- The negative one, namely rejecting the revelation of the prophetic Word.

7:13. And Pharaoh's heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, as the LORD had said.
7:22 Then the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments; and Pharaoh's heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, as the LORD had said.
Exodus 8:15,19,32
8:15. But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heartand did not heed them, as the LORD had said.
8:19 Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, "This is the finger of God." But Pharaoh's heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, just as the LORD had said.
8:32 But Pharaoh hardened his heartat this time also; neither would he let the people go.
Exodus 9:7,12,34
9:7. Then Pharaoh sent, and indeed, not even one of the livestock of the Israelites was dead. But the heart of Pharaoh became hard, and he did not let the people go.
9:12 But the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh; and he did not heed them, just as the LORD had spoken to Moses.
9:34 And when Pharaoh saw that the rain, the hail, and the thunder had ceased, he sinned yet more; and he hardened his heart, he and his servants.
Exodus 10:20,27
10:20. But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go.
10:27 But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.
For example, Pharaoh rejected the prophetic Word ten times.
The number ten refers to the love.
God repeats His Word as His great love to help us.
Exodus 3:20
3:20. "So I will stretch out My hand and strike Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in its midst; and after that he will let you go.
Pharaoh rejected the love of God or the Word which was sharper than any two-edged sword, so he got the stretching out of His hand or the ten plagues up to the death of the firstborn son.
The death of the firstborn son refers to the spiritual death, committing sins up to the peak, and spiritual dryness. It begins from the dry words, sinful deeds up to the peak, and the second death in the hell forever. - The positive one.
Exodus 3:21-22
3:21. "And I will give this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians; and it shall be, when you go, that you shall not go empty-handed.
3:22 "But every woman shall ask of her neighbor, namely, of her who dwells near her house, articles of silver, articles of gold, and clothing; and you shall put them on your sons and on your daughters. So you shall plunder the Egyptians."
It means receiving the prophetic Word or hearing and obeying the Wordlike Moses and Aaron. As a result, God stretched His hand to make Israel go out of Egypt, bringing gold, silver, and clothes.
There are three meanings of going out of or being redeemed from Egypt as follows:- Being redeemed from nations or men.
Romans 8:7
8:7. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.
The facts found in it are as follows:- Being redeemed from the fleshly man with all of the fleshly wills and lusts which make disobedience.
1 Peter 1:22
1:22. Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart,
As a result, we become obedient to the true teaching Word. We can live in holiness and love one another in sincerity; even we can repay good for evil.
Ephesians 4:11-12
4:11. And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,
4:12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,
God equips us with the beautiful tunic or the ministry and the gifts of Holy Spirit. - Being redeemed from the fleshly man to be appointed as the priests and kings or used in the ministry of the edification of the body of Christ.
Revelation 5:9-10
5:9. And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
5:10 And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth."
After being used by God, the beautiful tunic must be dipped in the blood. It means that we must willingly suffer in the flesh for serving and ministering to God. The results are as follows:- Satan cannot take the beautiful tunic from us. We keep on being the priests and kings until the end line, namely we pass away or Jesus comes a second time.
- The tunic becomes white and glistening or the garment of the bride.
- Satan cannot take the beautiful tunic from us. We keep on being the priests and kings until the end line, namely we pass away or Jesus comes a second time.
- Being redeemed from the fleshly man with all of the fleshly wills and lusts which make disobedience.
- Being redeemed from the world.
James 4:4
4:4. Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
The world with all of its influences such as the business, amenities, sorrows, hatred, and persecution make us unfaithful in the service and ministry to God. The unfaithfulness is the same as making friendship with the world or being the enemy of God.
Matthew 25:21,26,30
25:21. "His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'
25:26 "But his lord answered and said to him, 'You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed.
25:30 'And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'
The unfaithfulness is the same as being useless. Consequently, one's life becomes dark up to the outer darkness in the hell forever.
Being redeemed from the world with all of its influences, we will be the faithful and good servants of God. We can have a good conscience. There is no hypocrisy. We can do good things and say good words until we can repay good for evil.
We can be the faithful and true servants of God. We can be faithful and fervent in spirit, serving and ministering to God.
Isaiah 11:5
11:5. Righteousness shall be the belt of His loins, And faithfulness the belt of His waist.
We can be the servants of God who are faithful and fervent in spirit, faithful and responsible, and faithful and trustworthy.
1 Timothy 1:12
1:12. And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry,
2 Timothy 2:13
2:13. If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.
When we are not faithful, Jesus is still faithful. It means that He is still patient not to punish us, but give us time to return to the faithfulness until the faithfulness becomes our character which cannot be hindered by anything like the test, pressure, and so on. It is the same as getting the pure gold or the characteristic of Jesus. - Being redeemed from sins up to the peak, namely the sins concerning eating-drinking and marrying-being given in marriage.
Romans 3:23-24
3:23. for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
3:24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,
We must be redeemed by the blood of Jesus, the sinless man. We are redeemed from the sins which have control our inward and outward man or our whole life.
Colossians 3:5-9
3:5. Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.
3:6 Because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience,
3:7 in which you yourselves once walked when you lived in them.
3:8 But now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth.
3:9 Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds,
The proof of being set free from sins is not lying anymore. We can be honest or correctly say in everything. Say "yes" if "yes" and "no" if "no". This is the spiritual silver.
Proverbs 10:20
10:20. The tongue of the righteous is choice silver; The heart of the wicked is worth little.
Exodus 3:21-22
3:21. "And I will give this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians; and it shall be, when you go, that you shall not go empty-handed.
3:22 "But every woman shall ask of her neighbor, namely, of her who dwells near her house, articles of silver, articles of gold, and clothing; and you shall put them on your sons and on your daughters. So you shall plunder the Egyptians."
The gold, silver, and clothes are for the edification of the body of Christ physically and spiritually. We can be active in the revival of Holy Spirit at the latter rain.
There are two kinds of the revival of Holy Spirit as follows:- The revival of Holy Spirit at the early rain or the one in the gospel Word or the Good News.
The purpose is bringing the sinful men to believe Jesus and be saved. - The revival of Holy Spirit at the latter rain or the one in the teaching Word or the Bride Tidings.
The purpose is sanctifying the people who have been saved up to the perfection.
6:26. "Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
How small we are, if we are willingly used in the revival of Holy Spirit at the early and later rain, God will pay attention to us; even a piece of hair is paid attention to by God.
The results are as follows:- A piece of hair in the midst of waves refers to one who is meaningless and powerless.
Acts 27:33-36
27:33.And as day was about to dawn, Paul implored them all to take food, saying, "Today is the fourteenth day you have waited and continued without food, and eaten nothing.
27:34 "Therefore I urge you to take nourishment, for this is for your survival, since not a hair will fall from the head of any of you."
27:35 And when he had said these things, he took bread and gave thanks to God in the presence of them all; and when he had broken it he began to eat.
27:36 Then they were all encouraged, and also took food themselves.
We can be strong and of good courage by the power of the Word and Holy Communion. The sea will be made calm. It means that God is able to preserve our life in the midst of the difficulties and impossibilities in the world. We only need to patiently wait for the time of God. It also means the peace. All things become easy and light. - A hair is counted.
Matthew 10:29-30
10:29. "Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father's will.
10:30 "But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
It means being complete until we enter the oneness of the perfect body of Christ or the heavenly bride.
Song of Solomon 7:5
7:5. Your head crowns you like Mount Carmel, And the hair of your head is like purple; A king is held captive by your tresses.
The hair of the bride is like purple. It refers to confessing and forgiving one another, so the blood of Jesus washes away all of our sins. We become the house of prayer and can pray for one another. As a result, Jesus will come as the Heavenly Bridegroom.
James 5:16
5:16. Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
Luke 23:41-42
23:41. "And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done nothing wrong."
23:42 Then he said to Jesus, "Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom."
A criminal who was crucified beside Jesus could confess his sins and God was able to help him.
- Being redeemed from nations or men.
God blesses you.
