Seven Cups Of God’s Anger

Seven Cups Of God’s Anger This is not a recipe from the Food Network. 
When I read about how the human population will be angry at God for being angry at them, it echoes in my head of words people say even today, I’m mad at God!” People tend to get mad at God because of certain circumstances in their lives. Myself, I look at all the sin I have ever committed and think, I deserve punishment worse than this for all the sin I have committed.” Yet because our God is a gracious God, there will be those who will turn to him instead of away from him.
Let’s read Revelation 16 to find out about the seven terrible plagues that will be poured out on the earth.
When I read of the ugly and painful sores I think of Job and his boils. Remember when Satan asked God to do this to Job. It says nothing about God asking anyone if he can do this to the people with the mark of the beast. That proves God is the head of all. Those people will have wished they never took the mark of the beast.
EVERY living thing in the sea died when it was turned to blood. I can just imagine the stench of dead fish everywhere. YUCK! 
God has the right to judge and punish the people with the mark of the beast. He will bring judgment to them for the death of His holy people and the prophets. God is right and fair in His judgment too. Of course like I said in the beginning, there will be people who will think He is not fair.
I don’t know about you, but do these people seem pretty hard headed to you? What will it take to get their attention? It just came to me. These people will believe in the beasts’ power as we believe in our God’s power. They will hold out to the death most likely in hope of their beast winning for them. This may be why they do not change their hearts or simply because they belong to the beast and are afraid to change sides. Also, once they have the mark of the beast, there may be no turning back.
Man, what stubborn people! I think any one of these troubles sent by God would be enough to change my mind. I mean look at this anger poured out on the people, it was so painful they gnawed their tongues! People, change your hearts!
The people with the mark of the beast will once again be given a sign of false hope. They will perform their little miracles to show the people hope. The people will believe and continue to serve the beast. They will even battle for him.
I never thought of this until now. When these times come, John says to keep our clothes on and stay awake. If we do that, we will be blessed. Nobody knows the time or day when Christ will return for His bride. That doesn’t mean we stop sleeping and keep our clothes on now until He comes. I believe we will know when He returns. He is not going to leave His bride out of the loop. We will know our King and we will not fall for the false prophets. We need to have the Holy Spirit in us to know the truth. Those with the mark of the beast will not know the truth and will not change their hearts.
When I first read this I took it literally about not being naked. I thought maybe I should wear my clothes to bed. Yet I do not believe we are talking about the same kind of naked. Naked to me in the Bible means exposed sin. When Christ returns for His bride I believe their will be no sin in her. She will be without sin. She will be awake and ready for the return of her Groom. She will be clothed with righteousness. She will have plenty of oil in her lamp and be ready.
It is finished!” Do you think the people will believe then? It will be too late then. This final bowl of God’s anger will be like no other storm. The earthquake will split the great city into three parts. The islands ran away and the mountains disappeared. I live in Montana, I think if our mountains disappeared I would notice. Also there will be hail stones weighing about a hundred pounds. The hail will fall on the people and I would guess kill them. I mean, a hundred pound hail stone falling on you would most likely kill you.
Even after these troubles, the people cursed God for them. Instead of seeing why God was bringing His judgment on them, they refused to see it and blamed Him instead of themselves and their evil ways.
Prayer: Father God, I pray that we as Your bride for Christ will be ready when that day comes. Help us to be so in tuned with the Holy Spirit that we will not fall for the false teachers or the beast. We want to be the holy spotless bride of Christ. We do not want to serve any other god than You Lord. Continue to prepare us for that day Lord. Change our hearts and lives to be what You have called us to be. Let nothing stop us from serving You. Deliver us from all unrighteousness. Make us the spotless bride You have called us to be. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
In God’s Love,
