Revelation Ch 8:1-5
“When He opened the 7th SEAL,
there was SILENCE in heaven for about 1/2 HOUR.
2 & I saw the 7 ANGELS who stand before God,
& to them were given 7 TRUMPETS.
3 Then another angel, having a GOLDEN CENSER,
came and stood at the ALTAR.
He was given much INCENSE,
that he should offer it WITH THE PRAYERS OF ALL THE SAINTS
upon the GOLDEN ALTAR which was before the THRONE.
4 & the SMOKE of the INCENSE, with the PRAYERS of the SAINTS,
ASCENDED BEFORE GOD from the angel’s hand.
5 Then the angel took the CENSER,
filled it with FIRE from the ALTAR,
& THREW IT TO THE EARTH
& there were noises, thunderings, lightnings, & an earthquake.
6 So the 7 ANGELS who had the 7 TRUMPETS
PREPARED THEMSELVES TO SOUND.”

________________________________ ◄Book of Revelation’s References to YHWH’s THRONE► In the Book of Revelation YHWH’s THRONE appears 31 times! Revelation describes what is happening in Heaven “on,” “before,” “from,” “on each side of,” “around,” “in the midst of” & “round about” YHWH’s THRONE! Revelation Chapters 4 & 5 mentions YHWH’s THRONE 12 times & Chapter 5 mentions YHWH’s THRONE an additional 5 times. ➥ Revelation 1:4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the SEVEN SPIRITS which are before his THRONE; ➥ Revelation 3:21 To him that overcomes will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in HIS THRONE. ➥ Revelation 4 After this I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven! And the first voice, which I had heard speaking to me like a trumpet, said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.” 2 At once I was in the Spirit, and behold, a THRONE stood in heaven, with ONE SEATED ON THE THRONE. 3 And he who sat there had the appearance of jasper and carnelian, and AROUND THE THRONE was a rainbow that had the appearance of an emerald. 4 AROUND THE THRONE were twenty-four thrones, and seated on the throne were twenty-four elders, clothed in white garments, with golden crowns on their heads. 5 FROM THE THRONE came flashes of lightning, and rumblings and peals of thunder, and BEFORE THE THRONE were burning seven torches of fire, which are the seven spirits of God, 6 and BEFORE THE THRONE there was as it were a sea of glass, like crystal. And AROUND THE THRONE, ON EACH SIDE OF THE THRONE, are four living creatures, full of eyes in front and behind: 7 the first living creature like a lion, the second living creature like an ox, the third living creature with the face of a man, and the fourth living creature like an eagle in flight. 8 And the four living creatures, each of them with six wings, are full of eyes all around and within, and day and night they never cease to say, “Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come!” 9 And whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to HIM WHO IS SEATED ON THE THRONE, who lives forever and ever, 10 the twenty-four elders fall down before HIM WHO IS SEATED ON THE THRONE and worship him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns BEFORE THE THRONE, saying, 11 “Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created.” ➥ Revelation 5:1 And I saw in the right hand of HIM THAT SAT ON THE THRONE a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. ➥ Revelation 5:6-7 And I beheld, and, lo, IN THE MIDST OF THE THRONE and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. 7 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of HIM THAT SAT UPON THE THRONE. ➥ Revelation 5:11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels ROUND ABOUT THE THRONE and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; ➥ Revelation 5:13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honor, and glory, and power, be unto HIM THAT SITS UPON THE THRONE, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever. ➥ Revelation 6:16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of HIM THAT SITS ON THE THRONE, and from the wrath of the Lamb: ➥ Revelation 7:9-10 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood BEFORE THE THRONE, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; 10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. ➥ Revelation 7:11 And all the angels stood ROUND ABOUT THE THRONE, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell BEFORE THE THRONE on their faces, and worshipped God, ➥ Revelation 7:15 Therefore are they BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD, and serve him day and night in HIS TEMPLE: and HE THAT SITS ON THE THRONE shall dwell among them. ➥ Revelation 7:17 For the Lamb which is in the MIDST OF THE THRONE shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. ➥ Revelation 8:3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was BEFORE THE THRONE. ➥ Revelation 12:5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to HIS THRONE. ➥ Revelation 14:3 And they sung as it were a new song BEFORE THE THRONE, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. ➥ Revelation 14:5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD. ➥ Revelation 16:17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of THE TEMPLE OF HEAVEN, FROM THE THRONE, saying, It is done.
Prayers of the Saints Offered as Incense Before the Throne
The “Prayers of the Saints” are offered as “Incense” in both the Opening Vision of the 7 Seals & the Opening Vision of the 7 Trumpets! Their “prayers,” pictured as“golden bowls of Incense,” are “offered” “before” “the Throne” in Revelation 5:7-8 & 8:3. The Saints will have the future amazing opportunity for their prayers to join & participate in “Spirit & Truth” in Both Heavenly Visions of the 7 Seals & 7 Trumpets fulfilling our Father’s beautiful words in the Book of Revelation! If you are a Saint, your Prayers will be “offered” as “Incense” “before the Throne!” WOW!!!
➠ Revelation 5:6-8, 7 Seals Opening Vision “ And between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders I saw a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, with seven horns and with seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth. 7 And he went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who was seated on the throne. 8 And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.” ➠ Revelation 8:2-5, 7 Trumpets Opening Vision 2 Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them. 3 And another angel came and stood at the altar with a golden censer, and he was given much incense to offer with the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar before the throne, 4 and the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose before God from the hand of the angel. 5 Then the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and threw it on the earth, and there were peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.

Part 1: Authorized Incense
➠ Psalm 141 O Lord, I call upon you; hasten to me! Give ear to my voice when I call to you! 2 Let my prayer be counted as incense before you, and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice!.. 5 Let a righteous man strike me—it is a kindness; let him rebuke me—it is oil for my head; let my head not refuse it. Yet my prayer is continually against their evil deeds. ➠ Exodus 30 – YHWH’s Instruction for Altar of Incense “You shall make an altar on which to burn incense; you shall make it of acacia wood. 2 A cubit shall be its length, and a cubit its breadth. It shall be square, and two cubits shall be its height. Its horns shall be of one piece with it… 6 And you shall put it in front of the veil that is above the ark of the testimony, in front of the mercy seat that is above the testimony, where I will meet with you.7 And Aaron shall burn fragrant incense on it. Every morning when he dresses the lamps he shall burn it, 8 and when Aaron sets up the lamps at twilight, he shall burn it, a regular incense offering before the Lord throughout your generations. 9 You shall not offer unauthorized incense on it, or a burnt offering, or a grain offering, and you shall not pour a drink offering on it. ➠ Leviticus 16 – The Day of Atonement 3 But in this way Aaron shall come into the Holy Place: with a bull from the herd for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering… 12 And he shall take a censer full of coals of fire from the altar before the Lord, and two handfuls of sweet incense beaten small, and he shall bring it inside the veil 13 and put the incense on the fire before the Lord, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is over the testimony, so that he does not die… 29 “And it shall be a statute to you forever that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict yourselves and shall do no work, either the native or the stranger who sojourns among you. 30 For on this day shall atonement be made for you to cleanse you. You shall be clean before the Lord from all your sins. 31 It is a Sabbath of solemn rest to you, and you shall afflict yourselves; it is a statute forever.
Part 2: Unauthorized Incense Leading to Death
➠ Leviticus 10 – Arron’s Sons die for “Unauthorized Incense” Now Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer and put fire in it and laid incense on it and offered unauthorized fire before the Lord, which he had not commanded them. 2 And fire came out from before the Lord and consumed them, and they died before the Lord. 3 Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the Lord has said: ‘Among those who are near me I will be sanctified, and before all the people I will be glorified.’” And Aaron held his peace. ➠ 2 Chronicles 26 – King Uzziah’s Leprosy for “Unauthorized Incense” 16 But when he was strong, he grew proud, to his destruction. For he was unfaithful to the Lord his God and entered the temple of the Lord to burn incense on the altar of incense. 17 But Azariah the priest went in after him, with eighty priests of the Lord who were men of valor, 18 and they withstood King Uzziah and said to him, “It is not for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the Lord, but for the priests, the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Go out of the sanctuary, for you have done wrong, and it will bring you no honor from the Lord God.” 19 Then Uzziah was angry. Now he had a censer in his hand to burn incense, and when he became angry with the priests, leprosy broke out on his forehead in the presence of the priests in the house of the Lord, by the altar of incense. 20 And Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him, and behold, he was leprous in his forehead! And they rushed him out quickly, and he himself hurried to go out, because the Lord had struck him. 21 And King Uzziah was a leper to the day of his death, and being a leper lived in a separate house, for he was excluded from the house of the Lord… ➠ Isaiah 1 4 Ah, sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, offspring of evildoers, children who deal corruptly! They have forsaken the Lord, they have despised the Holy One of Israel, they are utterly estranged… 12 “When you come to appear before me, who has required of you this trampling of my courts? 13 Bring no more vain offerings; incense is an abomination to me. New moon and Sabbath and the calling of convocations— I cannot endure iniquity and solemn assembly. 14 Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hates; they have become a burden to me; I am weary of bearing them. 15 When you spread out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you; even though you make many prayers, I will not listen; your hands are full of blood. 16 Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean; remove the evil of your deeds from before my eyes; cease to do evil, 17 learn to do good; seek justice, correct oppression; bring justice to the fatherless, plead the widow’s cause. 18 “Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool. 19 If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land; 20 but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be eaten by the sword; for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.” ➠ Numbers 16 – Korah & Companions Death for “Unauthorized Incense” Now Korah the son of Izhar, son of Kohath, son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram the sons of Eliab, and On the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men. 2 And they rose up before Moses, with a number of the people of Israel, 250 chiefs of the congregation, chosen from the assembly, well-known men. 3 They assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron and said to them, “You have gone too far! For all in the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the Lord is among them. Why then do you exalt yourselves above the assembly of the Lord?”4 When Moses heard it, he fell on his face, 5 and he said to Korah and all his company, “In the morning the Lord will show who is his, and who is holy, and will bring him near to him. The one whom he chooses he will bring near to him. 6 Do this: take censers, Korah and all his company;7 put fire in them and put incense on them before the Lord tomorrow, and the man whom the Lord chooses shall be the holy one. You have gone too far, sons of Levi!”… 16 And Moses said to Korah, “Be present, you and all your company, before the Lord, you and they, and Aaron, tomorrow. 17 And let every one of you take his censer and put incense on it, and every one of you bring before the Lord his censer, 250 censers; you also, and Aaron, each his censer.”18 So every man took his censer and put fire in them and laid incense on them and stood at the entrance of the tent of meeting with Moses and Aaron. 19 Then Korah assembled all the congregation against them at the entrance of the tent of meeting. And the glory of the Lord appeared to all the congregation… 32 And the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, with their households and all the people who belonged to Korah and all their goods. 33 So they and all that belonged to them went down alive into Sheol, and the earth closed over them, and they perished from the midst of the assembly. 34 And all Israel who were around them fled at their cry, for they said, “Lest the earth swallow us up!” 35 And fire came out from the Lord and consumed the 250 men offering the incense. 36 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 37 “Tell Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest to take up the censers out of the blaze. Then scatter the fire far and wide, for they have become holy. 38 As for the censers of these men who have sinned at the cost of their lives, let them be made into hammered plates as a covering for the altar, for they offered them before the Lord, and they became holy. Thus they shall be a sign to the people of Israel.” 39 So Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers, which those who were burned had offered, and they were hammered out as a covering for the altar, 40 to be a reminder to the people of Israel, so that no outsider, who is not of the descendants of Aaron, should draw near to burn incense before the Lord, lest he become like Korah and his company—as the Lord said to him through Moses. 41 But on the next day all the congregation of the people of Israel grumbled against Moses and against Aaron, saying, “You have killed the people of the Lord.” 42 And when the congregation had assembled against Moses and against Aaron, they turned toward the tent of meeting. And behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the Lord appeared. 43 And Moses and Aaron came to the front of the tent of meeting, 44 and the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 45 “Get away from the midst of this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.” And they fell on their faces.46 And Moses said to Aaron, “Take your censer, and put fire on it from off the altar and lay incense on it and carry it quickly to the congregation and make atonement for them, for wrath has gone out from the Lord; the plague has begun.” 47 So Aaron took it as Moses said and ran into the midst of the assembly. And behold, the plague had already begun among the people. And he put on the incense and made atonement for the people. 48 And he stood between the dead and the living, and the plague was stopped. 49 Now those who died in the plague were 14,700, besides those who died in the affair of Korah. 50 And Aaron returned to Moses at the entrance of the tent of meeting, when the plague was stopped.
➥ The 7 Trumpets Opening Vision is THE TIME in the Book of Revelation when the FIRE is KINDLED!
Revelation 8:5 Then the angel took the censer and filled it with FIRE from the ALTAR and THREW IT TO THE EARTH. ➥ 2,000 years ago, Jesus was wishing for the “FIRE” to be “ALREADY KINDLED” at Luke 12:49. Luke 12:49 49 I have come to bring FIRE on the EARTH, and how I WISH it were ALREADY KINDLED! ➥ The Song of Moses Sung at Deuteronomy 32 and Re-Sung at Revelation 15:3 also points to the time when YHWH would KINDLE the FIRE. The Song of Moses includes the Language of the 7 Trumpets opening vision, the 1st & 2nd Trumpet. Deuteronomy 32:22 22 For a FIRE is kindled by my ANGER (7 Trumpets opening vision), And shall BURN to the lowest grave; it shall CONSUME THE EARTH WITH HER INCREASE (Trumpet 1), and SET ON FIRE THE FOUNDATIONS OF MOUNTAINS (Trumpet 2). ➥ Numbers 11:1 [ The People Complain ] And the people complained in the hearing of the Lord about their misfortunes, and when the Lord heard it, his ANGER was KINDLED , and the FIRE of the Lord BURNED among them and CONSUMED some outlying parts of the camp. ➥ Lamentations 4:11 The Lord gave FULL VENT to his WRATH; he poured out his hot ANGER, and he KINDLED a FIRE in Zion that consumed its foundations. ➥ Psalm 78:21 Therefore, when the Lord heard, he was full of wrath; a FIRE was KINDLED against Jacob; his ANGER rose against Israel, ➥ Isaiah 10:16 Therefore the Lord God of hosts will send wasting sickness among his stout warriors, and under his glory a BURNING will be KINDLED , like the BURNING of FIRE. ➥ Jeremiah 15:14 I will make you serve your enemies in a land that you do not know, for in my anger a Fire is KINDLED that shall BURN forever.” ➥ Jeremiah 17:4 You shall loosen your hand from your heritage that I gave to you, and I will make you serve your enemies in a land that you do not know, for in my anger a Fire is KINDLED that shall BURN forever.” ➥ Isaiah 50:11 Behold, all you who KINDLED a FIRE, who equip yourselves with burning torches! Walk by the light of your FIRE, and by the torches that you have KINDLED ! This you have from my hand: you shall lie down in torment.
Strange Fire Leviticus 10 The Profane Fire of Nadab and Abihu 10 Then Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer and put fire in it, put incense on it, and offered profane fire before the Lord, which He had not commanded them. 2 So fire went out from the Lord and devoured them, and they died before the Lord. 3 And Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the Lord spoke, saying: ‘By those who come near Me I must be regarded as holy; And before all the people I must be glorified.’” So Aaron held his peace. 4 Then Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, “Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp.” 5 So they went near and carried them by their tunics out of the camp, as Moses had said. 6 And Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons, “Do not uncover your heads nor tear your clothes, lest you die, and wrath come upon all the people. But let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the Lord has kindled. 7 You shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle of meeting, lest you die, for the anointing oil of the Lord is upon you.” And they did according to the word of Moses.
