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

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

The seventh trumpet shows the following three things:

  1. Verse 15-17 = Jesus, who will come a second time on the glorious clouds in the glory as the King of all kings and the Heavenly Bridegroom for establishing the heavenly kingdom in the world, namely the One-Thousand-Year Kingdom of Peace or the future Paradise and the New Jerusalem forever (it has been explained from General Service in Malang, July 5, 2020to General Service in Malang, August 2, 2020).

  2. Verse 18 = God's wrath over the world (it has been explained in Bible Study Service in Malang, August 4, 2020).
  3. Verse 19 = the Ark of the Covenant, the perfect church, or the heavenly bride.

ad. 2.
Revelation 11:18
11:18. The nations were angry, and Your wrath has come, And the time of the dead, that they should be judged, And that You should rewardYour servants the prophets and the saints, And those who fear Your name, small and great, And should destroy those who destroy the earth."

The seventh trumpet shows the judgment of God to the world and the people who deserve to get it, namely the three times seven judgments, the doomsday, and the everlasting hell.
Nevertheless, God also gives rewards to those who deserve to get it.

Thus, the seventh trumpet shows Jesus as the just Judge.

Who deserves to get the reward from God?

  1. 'Your servants' = God' servants (it has been explained from Bible Study Service in Malang, August 11, 2020to Prayer Service in Malang, August 13, 2020).

  2. 'the prophets' = ones who hear and obey the true teaching Word (it is explained in General Service in Malang, August 16, 2020).
  3. 'the saints' = becoming the holy people (it is explained from Bible Study Service in Malang, August 18, 2020to General Service in Malang, August 23, 2020).

  4. 'those who fear Your name' = the people who fear the Lord (it is explained in Bible Study Service in Malang, August 25, 2020).

ad. 4.
We have learnt about the fear of the Lord which is related to the four kinds of coverings in the Bible Study Service in Malang, August 25, 2020) and the image or power of the Trinity of God in the Prayer Service in Malang, August 27, 2020).

This morning, the fear of the Lord is related to the heavenly wisdom.
Proverbs 9:10a
9:10a. "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom,

Having the fear of the lord, a servant of God must receive the heavenly wisdom which is more than the worldly one.

The heavenly wisdom brings us to the right position, namely the right side.
Ecclesiastes 10:2
10:2. A wise man's heart is at his right hand, But a fool's heart at his left.

What is the meaning of the right side? It refers to the position of the sheep. Jesus is the High Priest, the Great Shepherd, and the King of all kings. He also sits at the right side of the throne of Father God.

Matthew 25:33

25:33. "And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.

Thus, if we become God's servant who has the fear of the Lord, we will receive the heavenly wisdom and become the sheep that are shepherded by Him, the Great Shepherd. We also have the connection with the throne of heaven.
The shepherding is the right and good place. Formerly, God placed Israel in Goshen, which was the image of the shepherding or the best place.

The facts found in being shepherded are as follows:

  1. Always dwelling in the sheepfold through the narrow door. Not being willing to pass through the narrow door, one refers to the hireling or thief.
    The sheepfold refers to the perseverance in doing the three main services to God as follows:

    • The Golden Candlestick refers to the perseverance in doing the General Service to get the fellowship with Holy Spirit God in His anointing and gifts.
    • The Table of Showbread refers to the perseverance in doing the Bible Study Service with the Holy Communion to get the fellowship with the Son of God in the teaching Word and the sacrifice of Christ.

    • The Golden Altar of Incense refers to the perseverance in doing the Prayer Service to get the fellowship with Father God in His love.

    Persevering and being faithful in the sheepfold are the same as loving God with all of our body, soul, and spirit.
    Not persevering is the same as not loving God.

  2. Only hearing and obeying the voice of the shepherd or the shepherding Word.
    The shepherding Word refers to the true teaching Word which is entrusted by God to a pastor to be preached to the congregation faithfully, regularly, and repetitively for being the food and command for them.
    We eat so that we can grow and become strong.
    The Word becomes the command so that we know what we must do.

    Being obedient is the same as loving God more than anything.
    Abraham was obedient and willingly offered his son. Jesus was obedient until He died on the cross.

    The pastor and priests must have the heavenly wisdom to get the connection with the throne of heaven.

  3. Loving others like we love ourselves or only doing the good things to other people. It starts from the marriage and shepherding until we can repay good for evil.
    Matthew 25:34-40
    25:34. "Then the King will say to those on His right hand, 'Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
    25:35 'for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in;
    25:36 'I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.'
    25:37 "Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink?
    25:38 'When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You?
    25:39 'Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?'
    25:40 "And the King will answer and say to them, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.'

    We do not harm or hurt others in anything. Hurting others is the symptom of not being shepherded.

    Not doing good thing will be insisted by God, moreover when one hurts others.

Thus, God's servant who has the fear of the Lord and is shepherded well must receive the great love of God (the two tablets of stone). The first stone refers to loving God and the second one refers to loving other people. We must have both.
The household and shepherding are the place of love. Being outside, there is only the hail like in Egypt. Do not try to seek for the love outside the household and shepherding.

What is the function of receiving the two tablets of stone?

  1. For facing the spiritual winter.
    Matthew 24:12
    24:12. "And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.

    The title is about the beginning of the suffering. It refers to the pre-persecution of the Antichrist which we must face.

    The spiritual winter is the same as the atmosphere of the end of age or the pre-persecution of the Antichrist for three and a half years. This is the atmosphere of Gethsemane, shakings, or crisis in all aspects, namely the sins, false teachings, sufferings because of Jesus, until the Antichrist reigns over the world for three and a half years.

    The crisis of love is the greatest one because men become the same as the beasts.

    Many servants of God do not have the fear of the Lord, so they do evil things, have no heavenly wisdom, and are not shepherded.
    Consequently, they cannot endure facing Gethsemane.

    The atmosphere of Gethsemane also refers to the separation. Having no godly quality, one will be burnt.
    The consequence is disobedience or rebellion.

    • It starts from the marriage.
      The betrayal in the time of relationship causes the pain.
      The betrayal in the time of engagement causes the severe pain. It is dangerous.
      The betrayal in the time of marriage causes the worst pain which is the same as the death.

      This is the impertinence of Satan, namely attacking the marriage which is the center of love.

    • Disobeying God in the shepherdingwhich is also the center of love. Being disobedient in the shepherding means the unfaithfulness until leaving the service and ministry to God like Judas Iscariot has done until he perishes forever.

    This is the shaking or separation in the household and shepherding. Be careful! Two people on the bed can also be separated.

    Who can endure? God's servants who have the fear of the Lord and the heavenly wisdom, are shepherded well and correctly, and have the two tablets of stone can endure and be strong and of good courage.

    Matthew 24:13

    24:13. "But he who endures to the end shall be saved.

    Being strong and of good courage means as follows:

    • Keeping on loving God more than anything. There are no fear, disappointment, and denial to the Lord until He comes.
    • Loving other people like we love ourselves; even we love other people who make hostility towards us.
    • Keeping firm in the shepherding.
    • Keeping faithful until the end.

  2. Being used by God for preaching the gospel of the kingdom of heaven.
    Matthew 24:14
    24:14. "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.

    It means as follows:

    • The gospel of salvation, the gospel Word, or the Good News [Ephesians 1:13] = the gospel which preaches the first coming of Jesus to the world as the only sinless Man who must die on the cross for saving the sinners.
      We testify about it to other people who have not known Jesus so that they believe Him and can be saved for adding the quantity of the members of the body of Christ.

    • The light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, the teaching Word which is sharper than any two-edged sword, or the Bride Tidings [2 Corinthians 4:3-4] = the gospel which preaches Jesus' second coming on the glorious clouds in the glory as the King of all kings and the Heavenly Bridegroom for sanctifying the saved people until they are as perfect as Jesus and become the heavenly bride who is ready for welcoming Jesus' second coming. It is for adding the quality of the body of Christ.

The examples of God's servants who serve to Him with the fear of the Lord are Puah and Shiphrah.
Exodus 1:15-21
1:15. Then the king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, of whom the name of one was Shiphrah and the name of the other Puah;
1:16 and he said, "When you do the duties of a midwife for the Hebrew women, and see them on the birthstools, if it is a son, then you shall kill him; but if it is a daughter, then she shall live."
1:17 But
the midwives feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the male children alive.
1:18 So the king of Egypt called for the midwives and said to them, "Why have you done this thing, and saved the male children alive?"
1:19 And the midwives said to Pharaoh, "Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women; for they are lively and give birth before the midwives come to them."
1:20 Therefore God dealt well with the midwives, and the people multiplied and grew very mighty.
1:21 And so it was, because the midwives feared God, that He provided households for them.

The males were killed by Satan. It means as follows:

  • Mix marriage happened because there were no males in Israel, so the women of Israel got married with the Egyptians.
  • The males will inherit the heavenly kingdom. The matter of the males' being killed means not inheriting the heavenly kingdom.

Verse 19 = there was the wisdom of God, so Satan could not touch.

The midwife refers to one who is closest to the birth process, especially the renewal of life. That is the servant of God.
The quantity of the members of the congregation is determined by the priests. Be careful! Do not become the killer of babies!

Puah and Shiphrah were the midwives who feared the Lord because they did not kill the babies of Israel who lived in Goshen. They did not obey the command of Pharaoh or Satan, so they got the heavenly wisdom and Pharaoh could not touch them.

Thus, Puah and Shiphrah were used in the birth process for adding the quantity and increasing the quality up to the perfection. It means that they were used in the Good News and the Bride Tidings or the revival of the early and latter rain.

God's servants who have the fear of the Lord and the perfect love are needed for being used in the revival of Holy Spirit at the early and latter rain for bringing the congregation into the salvation and perfection as the heavenly bride who is ready to enter the marriage supper of the Lamb and the New Jerusalem.

Nevertheless, we must be careful because many are called, but few are chosen. Only two midwives had the fear of the Lord at that time.

Many midwives were used by Satan for killing the male babies. They refer to the servants of God who do not have the fear of the Lord, but committed sins and lies up to the peak, namely the sins concerning eating-drinking such as smoking, getting drunk, and drugs abuse as well as the ones concerning marrying-being given in marriage or fornication.
They have no faithfulness, responsibility, and heavenly wisdom. Consequently, they killed the babies. It means being the stumbling-block until many people cannot receive Jesus, hindering the saved people for being perfected, and corrupting the true marriage. Nowadays, there are God's servants who permit the mix marriage and divorce-remarrying.
It is the same as building Babylon that will be destroyed in one hour.

The appearances of Puah and Shiphrah are as follows:

  1. Shiphrahmeans good looking or good appearance from hair to feet.
    Song of Solomon 7:1,5
    7:1. THE BELOVED How beautiful are your feetin sandals, O prince's daughter! The curves of your thighsare like jewels, The work of the hands of a skillful workman.
    7:5 Your
    headcrowns you like Mount Carmel, And the hairof your head is like purple; A king is held captive by your tresses.

    Romans 10:15
    10:15. And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feetof those who preach the gospel of peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!"

    The feet = the right conducts or deeds before God and other people.
    There must be good, right, and beautiful image at every place we visit.

    'purple' = red. It refers to the blood of Jesus. We must throw away the lies and only obey God.

    This is the outer appearance of God's servant who has the fear of the Lord.

  2. Puahmeans joy. This is the mentality of God's servant, namely rejoicing in holiness, being patient in tribulation, and continuing steadfastly in prayer.
    Romans 12:12
    12:12. rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer;

    'rejoicing in hope'= 'rejoicing in holiness'.

    Puah also means the light or honesty in the true teaching Word. This is the characteristic of God's servant.
    Being honest about the teaching Word, we can be honest about the marriage and finance until we can honestly confess the sins.

This is God's servant who attracts His presence as the Great Shepherd and the King of all kings. He fervently comes and we fervently look upon Him, so we are not moved until He stretches out His hands of mercy and goodness or the key of David. God does not only sit to pay attention to us, but also stands to help us.
Acts 7:55-59
7:55. But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standingat the right hand of God,
7:56 and said, "Look! I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!"
7:57 Then they cried out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and ran at him with one accord;
7:58 and they cast him out of the city and stoned him. And the witnesses laid down their clothes at the feet of a young man named Saul.
7:59 And they stoned Stephen as he was calling on God and saying, "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit."

Jesus has stood for lifting up all pains of Stephen.

The results are as follows:

  1. The hands of God's mercy and goodness are able to protect and preserve us in the midst of impossibilities in the world up to the days when the Antichrist reigns over the world.
    Exodus 1:18-19
    1:18. So the king of Egypt called for the midwives and said to them, "Why have you done this thing, and saved the male children alive?"
    1:19 And the midwives said to Pharaoh, "Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women; for they are lively and give birth before the midwives come to them."

    Spiritually, we are protected and preserved so that we keep on living in righteousness and holiness until the Antichrist cannot touch us. It means that we have been evacuated to the wilderness.

  2. The hands of God make all things good. The destroyed things are made good. The failure is changed into success and beauty in time of need.
    Exodus 1:20
    1:20.Therefore God dealt well with the midwives, and the people multiplied and grew very mighty.


  3. The merciful hands of God open the door of the marriage supper of the Lamb and paradise for us.
    Exodus 1:21
    1:21 And so it was, because the midwives feared God, that He provided households for them.

    He also opens the door of restoration to our marriage, solution from all problems, healing, and so on.

God blesses you.
