The Seven Bowls of Gods Wrath

Title: The Seven Bowls of God’s Wrath

Lesson:

Introduction: Today we will be exploring Revelations 16:1-12, which describes the pouring out of the seven bowls of God’s wrath. This passage can be difficult to understand, but it is important for us to study and learn from it in order to gain a deeper understanding of God’s justice and judgment.

1. The first bowl (vs. 2): The first bowl brings painful sores upon those who have taken the mark of the beast. This serves as a reminder that God’s judgment will fall upon those who choose to follow evil and reject Him.

2. The second bowl (vs. 3): The second bowl turns the sea into blood, causing all living creatures in the sea to die. This is a powerful image of the consequences of sin and disobedience.

3. The third bowl (vs. 4): The third bowl turns the rivers and springs into blood. This shows us that God’s judgment will impact all areas of creation, not just humanity.

4. The fourth bowl (vs. 8): The fourth bowl brings scorching heat upon the earth, causing great suffering. This reminds us that God’s judgment is not to be taken lightly, as there are serious consequences for turning away from Him.

5. The fifth bowl (vs. 10): The fifth bowl brings darkness upon the throne of the beast, causing great distress. This shows us that even the most powerful rulers and authorities will be subject to God’s judgment.

6. The sixth bowl (vs. 12): The sixth bowl dries up the Euphrates River, preparing the way for the kings of the east. This is a reminder that God is in control of all things and will bring about His judgment in His timing.

7. The seventh bowl (vs. 17): The seventh bowl brings about a great earthquake and hailstones, causing widespread destruction. This is a powerful image of the final judgment that will come upon the earth.

Conclusion: As we reflect on the pouring out of the seven bowls of God’s wrath, let us be reminded of the seriousness of sin and the consequences of turning away from God. May we seek to live lives that are pleasing to Him, knowing that His judgment is just and His mercy is available to all who repent and turn to Him.
