Key Verse: 6:9
1. The four horsemen (1-8)
As Jesus opened the first four seals, the four living creatures called forth four colored horses and their riders: the conqueror in white, war on a fiery red horse, famine in black, and Death and Hades on a pale horse. These were given power and equipment to kill a fourth of the earth by sword, famine and plague.
2. How long until you judge the earth? (9-17)
At the opening of the fifth seal, John saw those who had been slain because of the word of God and for maintaining their testimony. They called out, "How long until you avenge our blood?" These received white robes, and were told to wait for all the faithful to be killed and join them. In contrast, the sixth seal brought cataclysmic destruction, and the great and small of the earth fled in fear and hiding, knowing that no one can withstand the wrath of God and the Lamb.
Prayer: Prayer: Father, your day of judgment and wrath is coming. Help me maintain my testimony to the end.
One Word: Hold to God's word
