HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH!
Passage: Revelation 19:1~10  
Key verse: 1
Threefold Hallelujah Over Babylon’s Fall
19 After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude(A) in heaven shouting:
“Hallelujah!(B)
Salvation(C) and glory and power(D) belong to our God,
2 for true and just are his judgments.(E)
He has condemned the great prostitute(F)
who corrupted the earth by her adulteries.
He has avenged on her the blood of his servants.”(G)
3 And again they shouted:
4 The twenty-four elders(J) and the four living creatures(K) fell down(L) and worshiped God, who was seated on the throne. And they cried:
“Amen, Hallelujah!”(M)
5 Then a voice came from the throne, saying:
6 Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude,(P) like the roar of rushing waters(Q) and like loud peals of thunder, shouting:
“Hallelujah!(R)
For our Lord God Almighty(S) reigns.(T)
7 Let us rejoice and be glad
and give him glory!(U)
For the wedding of the Lamb(V) has come,
and his bride(W) has made herself ready.
8 Fine linen,(X) bright and clean,
was given her to wear.”
(Fine linen stands for the righteous acts(Y) of God’s holy people.)
9 Then the angel said to me,(Z) “Write this:(AA) Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!”(AB) And he added, “These are the true words of God.”(AC)
10 At this I fell at his feet to worship him.(AD) But he said to me, “Don’t do that! I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers and sisters who hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God!(AE) For it is the Spirit of prophecy who bears testimony to Jesus.”(AF)

1. For salvation, glory and power belong to God! (1-5)
The day when Babylon falls, we, the multitudes of God's people will sing Hallelujah with a thunderous voice in chorus! We will shout because "Salvation, glory and power belong to our God!" and "true and just are his judgments." God has avenged the blood of his servants. With his power and glory God saves all his servants who fear him. Then we will shout, "Amen! Hallelujah!"
2. For the Lord God Almighty reigns! (6-10)
We will sing Hallelujah because it is not the Roman emperors but the Lord Almighty who reigns forever and ever. Then the wedding of the Lamb will come and his bride will make herself ready with a white wedding dress (that is our righteous acts). Jesus not only dies for us but also sanctifies us to be his pure bride to live with him forever in his glorious kingdom. This day will surely come! Hallelujah!
Prayer: Lord, help me see the final victory in Jesus and keep hold to the testimony of Jesus as your pure bride!
One Word: Glory to God alone!
