After all the judgment and difficulties of the preceding chapters, hope is revealed in the reign of Messiah Yeshua. How wonderful to know for those believers who are there for the tribulation, that they have the opportunity to know (if they read the Bible) that Christ is coming. He will reign. He will reward His bond servants and punish those who reject Him in favor of doing evil.
We can also find hope knowing that even for those of us who may not be here for the tribulation, but face hard circumstances in life, can look forward to the hope in Yeshua to be with us in this life and after we die.
The Seventh Trumpet—Christ’s Reign Foreseen
15Then the seventh angel sounded; and there were loud voices in heaven, saying,
“The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ; and He will reign forever and ever.” 16And the twenty-four elders, who sit on their thrones before God, fell on their faces and worshiped God, 17saying,
“We give You thanks, O Lord God, the Almighty, who are and who were, because You have taken Your great power and have begun to reign. 18“And the nations were enraged, and Your wrath came, and the time came for the dead to be judged, and the time to reward Your bond-servants the prophets and the saints and those who fear Your name, the small and the great, and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”
19And the temple of God which is in heaven was opened; and the ark of His covenant appeared in His temple, and there were flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder and an earthquake and a great hailstorm.
