Today Revelation Meditation : 27/09/2025 The book of Revelation Explanation Post -128 VIII.1) The Sixth Seal – Great Catastrophe “I watched as he opened the sixth seal. There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red.” (Revelation 6:12) Beloved saints of the Lord, the sixth seal marks the end of the first half of the seven-year tribulation. It is at the opening of this sixth seal that, for the first time in the Revelation, the wrath of God is openly manifested. During the opening of the previous seals, many calamities occurred—but those were events arising naturally under the rule of a wicked system. War, famine, and death were tribulations caused by mankind. But now, in answer to the prayers of the martyred saints beneath the altar, God Himself begins to act directly. “For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can withstand it?” (Revelation 6:17) As the apostle Paul says, “God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you and give relief to you who are troubled, as well as to us.” (2 Thessalonians 1:6; Revelation 13:10) When the sixth seal is opened, six physical changes occur on the earth: 🌲1. The earth quakes. (Revelation 6:12) 🌲2. The sun turns dark. (Revelation 6:12) 🌲3. The moon becomes like blood. (Revelation 6:12) 🌲4. The stars fall. (Revelation 6:13) 🌲5. The sky recedes like a scroll. (Revelation 6:14) 🌲6. Every mountain and island is removed. (Revelation 6:14) The Lord Jesus also spoke of these very events: “There will be earthquakes in various places.” (Mark 13:8) “The sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.” (Matthew 24:29) --- 🌲1) A Great Earthquake The Word of the Lord states that when the sixth seal is opened, a great earthquake is sent by God as judgment. (Amos 1:1; Zechariah 14:5; Matthew 27:51; Matthew 28:2; Acts 16:26) When God descended on Mount Sinai to give Israel the Law through Moses, “the whole mountain trembled violently.” (Exodus 19:18) In Revelation, earthquakes occur at four key moments: ⏩1. When the sixth seal is opened (Revelation 6:12) ⏩2. Just before the trumpets are sounded (Revelation 8:5) ⏩3. When the two witnesses are taken up (Revelation 11:13) ⏩4. When God’s temple in heaven is opened (Revelation 11:19) --- 🌲2) The Sun Turns Dark The Scriptures record several occasions when darkness covered the land: Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and total darkness covered all Egypt for three days. (Exodus 10:21–22) From noon until three in the afternoon, darkness came over all the land. (Matthew 27:45) “The stars of heaven and their constellations will not show their light. The rising sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light.” (Isaiah 13:10) “The moon will be disgraced and the sun ashamed.” (Isaiah 24:23) “When I snuff you out, I will cover the heavens and darken their stars; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon will not give its light.” (Ezekiel 32:7–8) In Revelation, the sun is darkened in four events: ⏩1. At the opening of the sixth seal (Revelation 6:12) ⏩2. When the fourth trumpet is blown (Revelation 8:12) ⏩3. By the smoke rising from the Abyss (Revelation 9:2) ⏩4. When the fifth bowl is poured out (Revelation 16:10) 🌲3) “The Moon Turned Blood Red” Beloved saints, “the moon became like blood” (Revelation 6:12). Without sunlight, the moon cannot shine, so when the sun is darkened, the moon is equally affected. “The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord.” (Acts 2:20) “The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord.” (Joel 2:31) “The sun and moon will be darkened, and the stars no longer shine.” (Joel 3:15) Through His prophets, God foretold these signs long before, declaring that in the time of the sixth seal, the moon would cease to shine and appear as blood.
