TEXT: Revelation 5:1-14


1. Then I saw in the right hand of the one seated on the throne a scroll written on the inside and on the back, sealed with seven seals;


2. and I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seal?”


3. And no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look into it.


4. And I began to weep bitterly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look into it.


5. Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep. See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has conquered, so that he can open the scroll and its seven seals.”


6. Then I saw between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders a Lamb standing as if it had been slaughtered, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.


7. He went and took the scroll from the right hand of the one who was seated on the throne.


8. When he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell before the Lamb, each holding a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.


9. They sing a new song: “You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slaughtered and by your blood you ransomed for God saints from every tribe and language and people and nation;


10. you have made them to be a kingdom and priests serving our God, and they will reign on earth.”


11. Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels surrounding the throne and the living creatures and the elders; they numbered myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands,


12. singing with full voice, “Worthy is the Lamb that was slaughtered to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing!”


13. Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, singing, “To the one seated on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!”


14. And the four living creatures said, “Amen!” And the elders fell down and worshiped.


(New Revised Standard Version Holy Bible)


TOPIC: WORTHY TO OPEN THE SEAL


Today, Aso Villa and such other offices, homes, strong rooms, etc, cannot be easily accessed by just anybody except with proper permission.


Apostle John shows us a similar situation in verses 1-3 of today’s passage. He saw in the hand of Him who sits on the throne with a scroll and angel’s proclamation ‘who is worthy to break the seal’, but no one in heaven and on earth or under the earth could open that scroll.


In life, there are situations that are very difficult that no one is able to solve. But have you contacted Jesus Christ, the only one worthy to open the seal? Jesus Christ was proved worthy because He has conquered sins, death, hell and Satan. Jesus is the heir to David’s throne (cf. Revelation 19:19-21).


Therefore, He has all the authority and power as the Lion and has submitted in obedience to God’s will as the Lamb. So, His worthiness has attracted people from every nation to worship Him (vs. 9-14).


QUESTION: Do you know that Jesus Christ is worthy to be praised, can handle your difficult situations and open sealed doors in your life?


PRAYER: O Lord, help me to continue praising You, for You alone are worthy of praise, in Christ’s name, Amen.
