S – And when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write, but I heard a voice from heaven, saying, “Seal up what the seven thunders said, and do not write it down!” 

Revelation 10:4 CSB

O – Commentary:

Revelation reveals God’s intentions in the world without eliminating the mystery of God’s ways. The martyrs did not receive an immediate answer to their cries (6:10), the meaning of the seventh seal is cloaked in silence (8:1), and here the seven thunders are kept secret (cp. Dan 12:9). • Keep secret: Literally Seal up.

A – Interesting that in Revelation there is a part that will remain a mystery.  Deuteronomy 29:29 talks about how “The secret things belong to the Lord…”  God has secrets that for his purposes he will not reveal.  We must have faith that he will disclose what is necessary in his timing.  This is also true in our own lives.

R – Heavenly Father, you are Perfect.  Thank you for your character that is without blemish or fault.  This allows us to have faith and trust in you without any reservation.  Help us to grow in this today.
