HIGHLIGHT VERSES | Revelation 4:1-5
After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, "Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this." Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne. And He who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald. Around the throne were twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads. And from the throne proceeded lightnings, thunderings, and voices. Seven lamps of fire were burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

SOME SIGNPOST WORDS | 'OF COMMAND & CONTROL’
SOME OBSERVATIONS | So now we enter wonderland. John last see’s Jesus knocking on the closed door of the Laodicean church, now, after seeing an open door in heaven, and hearing a voice of invitational command, he is immediately, through the power, assistance, and medium of God the Holy Spirit found in full cognizance to actually be in heaven and his immediate sighting is of the throne of the Godhead three, all newly set to meet a different dispensation, and before this throne burns the seven lamps of fire, which I wonder might even be the Sovereign and ruling emblems of God the Holy Spirit.
A CALL TO ACTION | Whether this is the ancient throne or a new one now set in a new position of preserving judgement, I frankly do not know. However, o do know that our God reigns in heaven and on earth. He is in charge.
