Revelation 8–9: The Woe Judgments and God’s Justice
RHCBakersfieldIn today’s study we continue through the book of Revelation, looking at one of the most sobering sections in Scripture—the Woe Judgments. From the angel crying “Woe, Woe, Woe” to the release of demonic locusts and fallen angels at the Euphrates, Revelation 8–9 reveals a terrifying picture of God’s justice during the Tribulation. These passages show us: ✅ Why the judgments intensify in severity ✅ How demons torment unbelievers for 5 months without death ✅ The release of a 200 million–strong demonic army ✅ Why mankind still refuses to repent under God’s judgment ✅ The hope believers have in Christ, who delivers us from the wrath to come This is a powerful reminder of God’s holiness, the reality of spiritual warfare, and the urgency of repentance. 📖 Key Scriptures: - Revelation 8:13 - Revelation 9:1–21 - Joel 2:1–11 - 1 Thessalonians 1:10 #BookOfRevelation #BibleProphecy #EndTimes2.09K views 2 comments -
Understanding Revelation | Session 39 – The Seventh Seal and the Trumpet Judgments
RHCBakersfield🔥 Rock Harbor Prophecy Conference — October 4, 2025 🔥 📍 Bakersfield, CA | 🕘 In-person + Livestream ➡️ **Get Your Tickets Now:** https://tipofthespearministry.com/prophecy-conference-information/ The opening of the Seventh Seal unleashes the most sobering and terrifying judgments in the book of Revelation. In this study of Revelation 8 (NKJV), we see heaven fall silent as the Day of the Lord comes in full force. From the prayers of the saints rising like incense to the sounding of the trumpets, God’s wrath begins to shake the earth, sea, sky, and humanity itself. We’ll explore the four key themes of the Seventh Seal—Silence, Sounding, Supplication, and Storm—and then walk through the first four trumpet judgments: • Hail, fire, and blood consuming the land • A burning mountain cast into the sea • The star Wormwood poisoning the waters • The heavens struck, darkening light across the earth Each judgment dismantles idols, displays God’s holiness, and shows that sin cannot go unpunished. Yet, amid the warnings, there is hope: God hears the prayers of His people, and His justice allows us to live in forgiveness, not vengeance. 📖 Scripture: Revelation 8 (NKJV) 🔥 Big Idea: The Seventh Seal contains the trumpet judgments that intensify God’s wrath, proving His justice and pointing us to Christ’s coming Kingdom. ✝️ Application: Because God is just, we can forgive others and trust Him with ultimate justice. #BibleProphecy #Revelation8 #SeventhSeal1.86K views 1 comment -

Understanding Revelation | Session 37 – The Sixth Seal: When the Wrath of the Lamb Is Revealed
RHCBakersfieldWelcome to Rock Harbor Church’s Revelation study series. In this powerful message, we explore one of the most intense moments in all of Scripture—Revelation 6:12–17, where the sixth seal is opened and the wrath of the Lamb is revealed.

Pastor Brandon takes us verse-by-verse through this sobering passage, unpacking: • Why judgment is just • How God’s patience is often mistaken for passivity • What “Wrath of the Lamb” really means • The Hebraic idiom behind “fall on us and hide us” • Why no one can stand—unless they are in Christ This message isn’t just theological—it’s urgent. It’s a call to stop running and turn to the grace available before the day of wrath begins. 📖 Scripture Reference: Revelation 6:12–17 💬 Join the conversation: What stood out to you?
