Revelation
R Read this Book for a blessing (or listen to It read)
E Ephesus through Thyatira: two bring two to a head
V visions of the last three churches fill up chapter three
E Eternity holds God’s great throne – which John gets to see
L Lamb outshines Lion as the symbol for God’s sole Son
A A series of seals fill chapter six – magnificent
T The concept of twelve times twelve balanced by saints rent
I Introduced in chapter eight are God’s great trumpet sounds
O One woe is followed by another – awesomeness abounds
N Number ten tells truth that John was forbid to tell
S “Sodom,” Witnesses, a tenth of Jerusalem fell
I In twelve there’s time, times and half a time: symbol of years
N No man may buy/sell, six-six-six, a number of fears
R Reaping occurs in fourteen – a sharp sickle and souls
E Everything was conquered, his image, his mark, his name
V Vials now follow trumpets, as they followed seals of shame
E Enough details appear – a city on seven hills
L Long ugly is the list of her items and thrills
A Alleluia’s the cry: King of kings, Lord of lords
T Throne is here, judgment and books with defining words
I I, John, saw the “holy city” words to thrill saints’ hearts
O Oh, thrills: Night-less city, River, Fruits “off-the-charts”
N No Book quite compares to the “Revelation” of Christ.
