Revelation 6:1

Then I saw as the Lamb broke open one of the seven seals, and as if in a voice of thunder I heard one of the four living creatures call out, Come!

·         As we will see over the next several chapters our Father’s wrath will be poured out.

·         The Truth is we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and spirits of darkness in high places.

·        For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere. Ephesians 6:12

·         The Truth is also our weapons are not physical but spiritual.

·         For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds, 2 Corinthians 10:4

·         These verses in Ephesians and 2 Corinthians are true for our Father as well. He is not against His Own children; He is against the things that harm us and the forces that come against us. His wrath is towards the things that separate us and His wrath is in love and what He does will actually unite us. We are told in the Bible that every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord. It may take some time, but one day we will all be united. 

·         By Jesus breaking the seal we are shown that He is in control of what is happening. He owns it. We also know that Jesus never changes, so He will act in love just like He did when He was here on the earth 2000 years ago.
