Revelation 16, Ep 107

Hi, I’m Sal Lopez Executive Director of Ozark Hunger Relief, I am doing this to hopefully find some sponsors (tax deductible donations) for an office in Prairie Grove, Ar. I have seen and fed many children who wander around here. I thought if I started a non-profit, the community would be happy to help. Nope! I’ve had nothing but suspicion, derision, denial, and was eventually ripped off for everything I had, by another food pantry. They offered to let me work with their food pantry, then when I delivered everything I had, they told me to they couldn’t let me in their office, but subsequently asked me for more of my money. It has been horribly depressing, but I will persevere and get this office open.
My vision is to be a community resource center, but the main goal is to feed hungry kids, whose parents are drug addicts, and/or alcoholics. I guess some are just poor. Anyway, I need help and will advertise for you, and have signs of acknowledgement for every donor, proportionate for the donation.
Remember to try to stay positive, you can choose your state of mind, so I offer this advice: Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.”
Anyway, this episode is on Revelation 16, “The Seven Bowls – Your Final Victory Is Poured Out!”
Good morning, family! Come on, lift those hands and declare with me: “This is my moment! God is finishing what He started in my life!” Somebody give Him a shout of praise—He’s in this house, and He’s about to pour out a blessing you cannot contain! Today we’re in Revelation chapter 16—the seven bowls of God’s wrath. Now, I know what some of you are thinking: “Pastor, bowls of wrath? That sounds heavy!” But listen to me: What looks like judgment to the enemy is justice for YOU! These bowls aren’t coming to harm God’s children—they’re coming to remove every obstacle between you and your promised land! Let’s read verse 1 together: “Then I heard a loud voice from the temple saying to the seven angels, ‘Go and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath of God on the earth.’”
Did you see that phrase? Pour out! In the Bible, “pour out” is always a picture of abundance! Joel 2:28 says, “I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh.”
Malachi 3:10 says, “I will pour out for you such blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it!”
So when God says He’s pouring out these bowls, He’s not just judging Pharaoh’s system—He’s pouring out your breakthrough! Somebody shout, “It’s pouring time!”Now, let’s walk through a few of these bowls—because every plague is pregnant with your promise!Bowl #1 – Sores on the Beast’s followers (v. 2).
The enemy’s crowd gets painful sores, but you get healing! Isaiah 53:5 declares, “By His stripes we are healed!” Your body is about to outlive the curse! Cancer can’t stay. Depression can’t stay. That chronic pain can’t stay—the bowl has been poured!Bowl #2 – Sea turns to blood (v. 3).
Every living thing in the sea died. Why? Because the blood of Jesus is greater than the enemy’s ocean of opposition! Hebrews 9:14 says the blood of Christ cleanses your conscience. That ocean of guilt? Turned to blood—powerless! Your past is dead in the sea!Bowl #3 – Rivers and springs to blood (v. 4).
The enemy’s water supply—gone! But for you? John 7:38 says, “Out of your belly shall flow rivers of living water!”
While the world is thirsty, you’re a walking oasis! Favor is flowing! Ideas are flowing! Opportunities are flowing!Bowl #4 – Sun scorches with fire (v. 8).
The sun scorches those who cursed God, but you are under a different sun! Malachi 4:2 promises, “The Sun of Righteousness shall rise with healing in His wings!”
Let the world burn with stress—you’re burning with purpose! Let them burn with worry—you’re burning with worship! Bowl #5 – Darkness on the Beast’s kingdom (v. 10).
They gnawed their tongues in pain, but you walk in light! Psalm 119:105 says, “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.”
While the enemy’s kingdom is in blackout, your future is in high definition!Bowl #6 – Euphrates dried up (v. 12).
The river that blocked the kings of the east? Dried up! That barrier that’s been holding back your promotion? Dried up! That Red Sea that’s been in your way? Dried up! Isaiah 43:16 says God makes a way in the sea, a path in the mighty waters—and now the river itself is gone!Bowl #7 – “It is done!” (v. 17).
The greatest words in the Bible: IT IS DONE! Earthquakes, hailstones, islands flee—but you are on the Rock! Matthew 7:25 says the house built on the Rock stood firm! Listen, friend. Revelation 16 isn’t the end of the world—it’s the end of your waiting! Every bowl is God saying, “I’m removing the last excuse the devil has to keep you bound! ”I love verse 15—right in the middle of the bowls, Jesus interrupts: “Behold, I am coming like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake, keeping his garments on.”
He’s saying: Stay dressed in righteousness! Stay dressed in praise! Stay dressed in expectation! Your wedding garment is ready—the Bridegroom is at the door!Let me close with this. Verse 17—the voice from the throne says, “It is done!” That’s the same thing Jesus said on the cross in John 19:30: “It is finished!” What He finished on the cross, He’s finalizing in your life with these seven bowls!I feel the Holy Ghost right now! If you believe your final victory is being poured out today, I want you to stand and shout, “It is done! It is done! It is done!”Prayer:
Father, we thank You that every bowl of judgment on the enemy is a bowl of blessing on Your children! We declare: Our sores are healed! Our seas are parted! Our rivers are flowing! Our light is shining! Our barriers are dried up! And right now, in Jesus’ name—IT IS DONE! Amen and amen!Now go this week expecting the pour-out! The best is not coming—it’s being poured! Give Him a 10-second praise—Hallelujah!
