Revelation is a Book of Praise

Revelation is a book of praise, including verses 5:8-14, 7:9-12, 14:1-3, 15:2-4, and 19:1-7. This praising includes both loud voices and singing.

“Every creature which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea and all things in them, I heard saying, To Him who sits upon the throne and to the Lamb be the blessing and the honor and the glory and the might forever and ever.” (5:13)
“Hallelujah! For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns.” (19:6)

“Let us rejoice and exult, and let us give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.” This is Revelation 19:7 which is a praise related to New Jerusalem, “the bride, the wife of the Lamb” (21:9).

Surely this praising of God and the Lamb will continue in New Jerusalem. But let’s not wait! We can speak, shout, or sing praises today to have current experience of New Jerusalem. Here is a song with the praises of Revelation 5:12-13. Worthy is the Lamb!

In his classic text, The Contemplative Pastor, Eugene Peterson wrote:As a pastor, I don’t like being viewed as nice but insignificant. I bristle when a high-energy executive leaves the place of worship with the comment, ‘This was wonderful, Pastor, but now we have to get back to the real world, don’t we?’ I had thought we were in the most-real world, the world revealed as God’s, a world believed to be invaded by God’s grace and turning on the pivot of Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection.
