Revelation 8:10-12

¹⁰ The third angel blew [his] trumpet, and a huge star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it dropped on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water—

• A star is a leader, so a leader fell from Heaven.
• Satan was cast out of Heaven to the earth and allowed to go after the woman who birthed the Lord. So the church will be allowed to be attacked.

¹¹ And the name of the star is Wormwood. A third part of the waters was changed into wormwood, and many people died from using the water, because it had become bitter.

• Wormwood is bitter, satan is bitter, because his time is short. Notice here again that only a 1/3, which means 2/3rds were not effected.
• Waters are often a reference to people in prophecy, but I wonder if it could also refer to angels. A 1/3rd of the angels were cast out of Heaven with satan, Revelation 12:4?
• Many people follow false churches, or false messages, these messages or angels have a form of godliness but they deny the power of it and those who follow them lose their reward, yet they themselves are still saved as ones who passed through the fire, 1 Corinthians 3:15.
• The love of many will grow cold during the end times, they will become bitter, Matthew 24:12.
• But not our love, which is our Father’s love within us, John 17:28. Where sin abounds our love much more abounds, Romans 5.
• These deceived people will judge their salvation on the worldly wealth that they acquire. Look at the seeds being sown of this today. Mercedes are driving down the road with blessed bumper stickers on them. People judge blessing by wealth and that is not at all how our Father tells us to judge. 

¹² Then the fourth angel blew [his] trumpet, and a third of the sun was smitten, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that [the light of] a third of them was darkened, and a third of the daylight [itself] was withdrawn, and likewise a third [of the light] of the night was kept from shining.

• Sun, light, a 1/3rd of the saints will be allowed to be killed for the testimony of the Truth.
• A 1/3rd of the stars, or a 1/3rd of the angels have fallen and have been destroyed by the false message of satan.
• The Moon, the churches will be affected by the lies and destructive forces of the end times. 
• So both Heavenly beings and earthly beings are affected by the false message of satan.
• This ties right in with what Jesus said in Revelation 6:9.
• The message of the Truth will be expensive. Truth will be unpopular, but the Truth will prevail.
