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

Revelation 11:15-19 are about the sound of the seventh or the last trumpet.

Revelation 11:15
11:15 Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lordand of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!"

The seventh trumpet shows Jesus who will come for the second time on the glorious clouds in the glory as the King of all kings and the heavenly Bridegroom to establish or heal the kingdom of heaven in the world, namely the One-Thousand-Years Kingdom of Peace or the future paradise until we really enter the kingdom of heaven or the New Jerusalem forever.

Revelation 11:16-17
11:16 And the twenty-four elderswho sat before God on their thrones fell on their facesand worshiped God.
11:17 saying: "We give You thanks, O Lord God Almighty, The One who is and who was and who is to come, Because You have taken Your great power and reigned
.

The atmosphere of the heavenly kingdom, paradise, or the heavenly throne in the world is the one of worship until having the broken heart or falling down on face.
Let the power of the true teaching word which is repeated be able to bring us to the atmosphere of the heavenly kingdom on earth, namely we can worship Him with a broken heart.

Revelation 19:1,3-4
19:1 After these things I heard a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, "Alleluia! Salvation and glory and honor and power belong to the Lord our God!
19:3 Again they said
, "Alleluia!Her smoke rises up forever and ever!"
19:4 Andthe twenty-four eldersand the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sat on the throne, saying, "Amen! Alleluia!"

The twenty-four elders worshiped God with broken heart and loud voice saying "Alleluia". It is the worship to the King.

The twenty-four elders refer to the following things:

  1. The twelve apostles at the early rain.
    Mark 3:16-19
    3:16 Simon, to whom He gave the name Peter;
    3:17 James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James, to whom He gave the name Boanerges, that is, "Sons of Thunder";
    3:18 Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Cananite;
    3:19 and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him. And they went into a house.

    Judas Iscariot was replaced with Matias.

  2. The twelve apostles at the later rain who are being chosen by God to lead the church of God into the perfection.

Peter, James, and John fell down on faces starting from the world up to heaven.
Let us learn to fall down on our face in the world until we feel the heavenly kingdom in the world and enter the heaven.

The meanings of falling down on face are as follows:

  1. Falling down on our face before Jesus or the King of all kings. It means that we worship Him with a broken heart. Revelation 11:16-17
    11:16 And the twenty-four elderswho sat before God on their thrones fell on their facesand worshiped God.
    11:17 saying: "We give You thanks, O Lord God Almighty, The One who is and who was and who is to come, Because You have taken Your great power and reigned
    .

    Having the broken heart is the same as having a full faith and believing heart or giving thanks because of Jesus the King of all kings who has the great power which cannot be defeated by anything in the world, so He can do all things for us.

    If we have faith, we will experience the atmosphere of heaven and all things are born by the King.
    Remember! All things that are done by God are good and perfect.

  2. Falling down on our face with a humble heart. It means that we confess that we are only clay or the powerless sinful men, so we can confess our sins to God and other people.
    Luke 5:7-11
    5:7 So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink.
    5:8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!"
    5:9 For he and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish which they had taken;
    5:10 and so also were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch men."

    5:11 So when they had brought their boats to land, they forsook all and followed Him.

    Let us fall down on our face much when facing the test, suffering and so on. Do not complain!
    Luke 5:3
    5:3 Then He got into one of the boats, which was Simon's, and asked him to put out a little from the land. And He sat down and taughtthe multitudes from the boat.

    We have received the gospel word, but it must be increased to the teaching word.
    The teaching word which is repeated should make us humble and able to confess sin when we are blessed or when we are in difficulties, not being arrogant.
    Many times men are hard-hearted when they face the test as well as when they are blessed.

    If men are arrogant, they will have the self-truth.
    So, if men practice the teaching word, they will be humble, but when it is not practiced, they will become arrogant and blame at the true teaching word.

    When we can confess our sins, we get the results as follows:

    • We experience the forgiveness of God to our sins. After the sins are forgiven, do not do them anymore! We live in the righteousness. We are not condemned, but we experience the salvation up to our whole family.

    • Receiving the blessing of God abundantly (two boats almost drowned, moreover only one).
      The meanings of receiving the abundant blessing are as follows:

      1. We remember God who gives the blessing through returning the tithe and giving the special offerings.
      2. We remember the other people.
      3. We give thanks.

    • We become the fisher of men or the priests who are used by God in the revival of Holy Spirit at later rain. So, we do not fear or worry about anything anymore. We put Jesus as the head.

    • We follow Jesus. It means that we are shepherded well and correctly or obediently and faithfully.
      Luke 5:11
      5:11 So when they had brought their boats to land, they forsook all and followed Him.

      We are in the right hand of the Great Shepherd who gives all the assured protection and preservation miraculously in the midst of the world which is uncertain until the age of Antichrist and condemnation; even there is assured eternal life.

      John 10:27-28

      10:27 "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
      10:28 "And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.


  3. Falling down on face when facing the sprinkling of blood or Gethsemane. We learn from John the apostle who was loved by God.
    Revelation 1:17,9
    1:17 And when I saw Him, I fell atHis feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, "Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last.
    1:9 I, John, both your brother and companion in the tribulation and kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was on the island that is called Patmos
    for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.

    The conditions of John the apostle were as follows:

    • He had the word or the Table of Showbread.
    • He had the testimony of Jesus or the Golden Candlestick.

    He had the word (the Table of Showbread) and the testimony of Jesus (the Golden Candlestick) but he did not have the worship prayer (the Golden Altar of Incense). The proof is that he was still afraid when he faced the sprinkling of blood in Patmos Island.

    Being afraid to the sprinkling of blood is the same as being afraid to something in the world which makes men suffer until they fight against God.

    If men fall down on faces less, they will become the target of the Antichrist.
    Being afraid to the sprinkling of blood is the same as being afraid to seeing the face of Jesus in the glory as the King and the Bridegroom of heaven. They will worship the Antichrist and be left forever.

    Thankfully, in the suffering, John the apostle could fall down on face to see the face of Jesus in the glory.
    Let us use the time when we experience the sprinkling of blood to see the face of Jesus.

    Falling down on our face means worshiping God with a broken heart or being strong and courageous and surrendering fully to the mercy and the power of God, so the following miracles happen:

    • Having fear to something in the world becomes having fear to God.
    • Being obedient until the flesh does not speak anymore. We only stretch our hand to God and He stretches His right hand. We live in the strong and powerful right hand of God.

    The results are as follows:

    • We become the star or the witness of God.
      Revelation 1:20
      1:20 "The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in My right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands which you saw are the seven churches.

      We are used to glorify the name of God.

    • The right hand of God saves us.
      Psalms 138:7-8
      138:7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me; You will stretch out Your hand Against the wrath of my enemies, And Your right hand will save me.
      138:8 The LORD will perfect that which concerns me; Your mercy, O LORD, endures forever; Do not forsake the works of Your hands!

      The meanings are as follows:

      1. Protecting and preserving us from the condition on the last days, so we experience the peace and all things are easy and light.
      2. The right hand of God finishes all of impossible problems.
      3. Doing all things that we cannot do and think.

    • The hand of God is able to exalt us. It means that He makes all things successful and beautiful in due time.
      Psalms 118:15-16
      118:15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation Is in the tents of the righteous; The right hand of the LORD does valiantly.
      118:16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted; The right hand of the LORD does valiantly!"

      The hand of God changes us to be as perfect as Him. We do not stumble in words anymore but only say "Alleluia" to welcome His second coming.

God blesses you.
