In this week’s sermon on Revelation 16:10–16, the judgements of God continue to unfold. As darkness falls—echoing the plague in Egypt—the world is being prepared for battle. The Euphrates is dried up, making way for kings to gather at Armageddon, a place steeped in biblical history. The dragon, the beast, and the false prophet send out deceiving spirits like frogs, a twisted echo of Exodus. Yet in the midst of this rising conflict, there is a word of blessing for those who stay awake and clothed in readiness. Join us as we explore the meaning of these signs and the hope held out for those who endure faithfully.
The great day of God the Almighty
Revelation 16:10-16
10 The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues in anguish 11 and cursed the God of heaven for their pain and sores. They did not repent of their deeds.
12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east. 13 And I saw, coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs. 14 For they are demonic spirits, performing signs, who go abroad to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty. 15 (“Behold, I am coming like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake, keeping his garments on, that he may not go about naked and be seen exposed!”) 16 And they assembled them at the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.
