December 29 Sermon: The Weight of Silence

Edgerton First Reformed: An Evangelical Presbyterian Church

In Revelation 8, heaven falls silent as the seventh seal is opened, followed by the prayers of the saints and the sounding of the first four trumpets. This profound moment reminds us of the weight of God’s judgment, the power of prayer, and the call to repentance. As we enter a new year, let’s reflect, renew, and focus on our faith in Christ.

Contemplate these questions as you listen to this message:

1. How does the silence in heaven challenge us to pause and reflect on the holiness of God in our own lives?

2. In what ways do the prayers of the saints inspire us to approach God with confidence and trust ?

3. How does the vision of the trumpets remind us of the seriousness of sin and the urgency of repentance?
