S – The seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven saying, The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will reign forever and ever. 

Revelation 11:15 CSB

O – Commentary:

The fact that this will be fulfilled at the Second Coming makes it clear that the period of the seventh trumpet chronologically reaches to Christ’s return. Therefore the seventh trumpet introduces and includes the seven bowl judgments of the wrath of God revealed in chapter 16. In contrast with previous trumpets where a single voice was heard, here a mighty chorus from heaven joined in the proclamation.

A – Jesus Christ is coming back to rule and reign over the kingdom of the world.  Even as the the turbulence of this time continues and lives are impacted and lost in the process – it is leading to the victorious return of Christ.  Knowing all this is coming, it should cause us to examine our own relationship with God.  The fear (reverence and awe) of God should draw us to him.

R – Heavenly Father, you are the one, true God and Jesus is Lord and Savior.  We want to proclaim you are Lord over all the earth.  We want our lives to be a living testimony of your greatness, character and love.
