(15:5-8) The Seven Bowls of the Seven Plagues - Seven angels were given seven bowls from which they would pour out the seven “bowl judgments,” the last plagues to be visited upon the earth. Unlike the previous plagues from the seals, which had destroyed one-fourth of the earth (chapters 6–8), and the trumpets, which had destroyed another third of the earth (chapters 8–11), these plagues were directed only against the Antichrist’s followers but affected the entire earth. These judgments were complete and final, culminating in the abolition of all evil and the end of the world. These would bring about the end of the Antichrist’s reign.

Each day we walk through the Bible chapter by chapter making an application of our text to help us grow in the Lord. Many applications can be made from each day's text. Today we Continue in the book of Revelation with Chapter 15 and in today's text we are introduced to the plague judgments also known as the vial judgments. These vials are like bowls and are filled up with the wrath of God which are to be poured out as the judgment of God is exercised. In making application we see that God's Mercy and Love is long suffering but His wrath is Sure and Just. Some believe that judgment will never come so live in sin and enjoy yourself. The truth is that  your sin affects and hurts others so God must judge sin for He is Holy. His love should motivate us to be saved, live right, and reach others for Christ. His wrath should do the same, time is of the essence judgement is coming. How about you? Does the wrath of God motivate you to turn to Christ in submission, service, or obedience? Listen to the Holy Spirit take the Word and give you direction for your life.
