Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.”
REVELATION 14:12

The End Goal
The three angels’ messages have one prime purpose, one singular focus: to prepare a people for the coming of Jesus. These divinely inspired messages come to a climax in Revelation 14:12, when John explains the ultimate result of understanding and accepting Heaven’s end-time message.

The apostle states that these messages will produce a people of whom it can be written, “Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus” (Revelation 14:12).

The word patience might be better translated endurance. By His grace, God’s people will endure the trials of the last days and come off conquerors.

They will face the fury of the beast and not yield their conscientious convictions. Although they are unable to buy or sell and face persecution, imprisonment, and death itself for Christ’s sake, they are obedient to His commands.

They cannot be coerced to surrender their loyalty to Christ. They live grace-filled, Christ-exalting, obedient lives in the midst of a sinful, rebellious, disobedient world in Earth’s final hour.

The Faith of Jesus
There is something else fascinating about Revelation 14:12. These end-time believers not only have faith in Jesus, they have the faith of Jesus. What is the faith of Jesus?

The faith of Jesus is the same quality of faith in God that Jesus had on the cross. When Jesus hung on the cross bearing the guilt, shame, and condemnation of humanity’s sins, He felt abandoned by God.

The enormity of sin was so great that Jesus felt God-forsaken. This is why He cried out in agony, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” (Matthew 27:46). Had God forsaken Him? Certainly not! His Fatherly eyes were on the cross all the time.

His heart of love was broken at the agony His Son was going through. Jesus trusted when He could not see. His faith transcended what was going on around Him. That’s why His final words were, “Father, into Your hands I commit My Spirit” (Luke 23:46).

Just before Jesus returns, according to Revelation’s prophecies, God’s people will once again need to trust when everything around them appears to be against them. What is it that will take them through this trying time? It is the “faith of Jesus.”

How do we develop this faith of Jesus? First, just as salvation is a gift, faith is also a gift that God places within our hearts that grows as we exercise it (Romans 12:3-8). When we experience difficult circumstances and desperately cling to God’s promises, our faith grows. When we saturate our minds with the Word of God, our faith grows (Romans 10:17). When we acknowledge our lack of faith and earnestly pray for God to increase our faith, it grows (Luke 17:5).

In our prayer time today, let us ask God to give us endurance as we face the trials of life. Let us pray that He will give us the strength to be obedient to His will in every area of our lives, and let us petition Heaven to grant us an increase of faith so the “faith of Jesus” fills our lives and prepares us for Earth’s final crisis. Then one day we will live with Jesus through all eternity!

“After these things I heard a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, ‘Alleluia! Salvation and glory and honor and power belong to the Lord our God! For true and righteous are His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication; and He has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her.’ Again they said, ‘Alleluia! Her smoke rises up forever and ever!’ And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sat on the throne, saying, ‘Amen! Alleluia!’ Then a voice came from the throne, saying, ‘Praise our God, all you His servants and those who fear Him, both small and great!’”
REVELATION 19:1-5

A Solemn Warning
The third and last of the three angels’ messages is one of the most solemn warnings in the Bible. It is one that many people would like to ignore, yet it reveals life-changing spiritual truths that speak to our deepest needs and draw us closer to Jesus.

The apostle John writes, “Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, ‘If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb’”(Revelation 14:9, 10).

The first life-changing principle about this warning is that it comes from the heart of a loving God who wants more than anything else to save us in His kingdom. This is a divine message of warning so God’s people will not be caught off guard with the deceptions that are coming.

Secondly, it has to do with worship. The angel says, “If anyone worships the beast.” This is in direct contrast to the first angel’s message in verse 7 to worship the Creator.

Worshiping the Creator leads faithful followers of Christ to respond to His love, trust His saving grace, be obedient to His Word, and keep His commandments. Worshiping the beast leads people to live self-centered lives of independence from God in disobedience to His commands. It focuses on self rather than upon Jesus.

The Beast Within Us
This message of the third angel speaks of a time that is coming when church and state will unite under the authority of the papacy to enforce worship on the first day of the week.

The final message of the three angels is a call to earnest, heartfelt prayer. The antichrist principle—of pride rather than humility, self-exaltation rather than self-sacrifice for the good of others, and trust in human wisdom rather than the divine inspiration of the Scriptures—is deeply ingrained in our fallen natures. What is the solution to the principles of the beast dwelling in us?

There is only one solution, and that is Jesus—His grace, His power, His love filling our hearts and lives. Unless our commitment to Him is stronger than the pull of the world, we will be dominated by the principles of the beast today and will one day accept the beast’s mark.

The warning against the mark of the beast in the third angel’s message should drive us to our knees in humble submission to Christ, pleading for His Spirit to purge us thoroughly from within and work the miracle of divine grace in our hearts.

It should also lead us to pray for our family, friends, and neighbors, that they too will have hearts open to Christ’s saving last-day message. This message should motivate us to look forward to the day when we will rejoice with Christ around His throne forever (Revelation 19:1-5).

“After these things I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illuminated with his glory. And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying, ‘Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird!’”
REVELATION 18:1, 2

The Second Angel’s Message
The three angels’ messages of Revelation 14 are specifically designed to prepare a people for the coming of Jesus. They reveal the plans of God and unmask the plans of the devil. The second angel’s message gives this solemn warning: “Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication” (Revelation 14:8).

Just as ancient Babylon warred against God in rebellion against His commands, spiritual Babylon stands in rebellion against God. She passes around her “wine cup” of false doctrines to deceive millions. Ellen White describes Babylon this way: “The great sin charged against Babylon is that she ‘made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.’ This cup of intoxication which she presents to the world represents the false doctrines that she has accepted as the result of her unlawful connection with the great ones of the earth.

Friendship with the world corrupts her faith, and in her turn she exerts a corrupting influence upon the world by teaching doctrines which are opposed to the plainest statements of Holy Writ” (The Great Controversy, p. 388). Fornication is an illicit union. Spiritual Babylon turns from her true lover, Jesus, and unites with the state or the political powers.

This union of church and state, as described in Revelation 17, leads to the enforcement of the mark of the beast. Babylon represents a religious system that distorts Scripture and is centered in human teachings.

The second angel’s message, combined with the prophecies of Revelation 17 and Revelation 18, reveals what is coming upon this earth as an overwhelming surprise. The apostate religious powers will unite with the political and economic forces to bring about unity at a time of worldwide crisis and calamity.

The second angel’s message sounds an urgent appeal to prayer in at least three areas. First, it calls us to be faithful to Christ and His word. Compromise in our personal lives will only lead us in the final moments of Earth’s history to unite with Babylon and war against the people of God.

Second, this message calls us to a faith that can stand the test of trial. The prophet of God earnestly appeals to us, “A storm is coming, relentless in its fury. Are we prepared to meet it? We need not say, The perils of the last days are soon to come upon us.

Already they have come. We need now the sword of the Lord to cut to the very soul and marrow of fleshly lusts, appetites, and passions. Minds that have been given up to loose thought need to change. . . . The thoughts must be centered upon God“ (With God at Dawn, p. 113).

Third, this message calls us to invite our friends into a deep relationship with Jesus and an understanding of Revelation’s truths for this final hour. As we kneel to pray, let us pray for these specific things:

A clearer understanding of God’s Word, a greater love for Jesus, and an uncompromising spirit.
A faith that can stand the test of trial.
The courage to witness to those around us.

“Even to them I will give in My house and within My walls a place and a name better than that of sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting name that shall not be cut off. Also the sons of the foreigner who join themselves to the Lord, to serve Him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be His servants—everyone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath, and holds fast My covenant—even them I will bring to My holy mountain, and make them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted on My altar; for My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations”
ISAIAH 56:5-7

Created for a Purpose
The three angels’ messages are a clarion call to worship our Creator. We did not evolve. We are not a genetic accident. God created us, and life is a precious gift that comes from Jesus.

The apostle John states, “You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power; for you created all things, and by your will they exist and were created” (Revelation 4:11). It is an awe-inspiring thought to recognize that we exist by the will of God.

The Sabbath reminds us that we were created for a purpose. It takes us back to our garden home in Eden and reminds us of a loving Creator who desires only good for our lives. In a world of suffering, sickness, and disease, the God of Creation promises to “never leave you nor forsake you” (Hebrews 13:5). This fact alone should drive us to our knees in praise to God for the gift of life and to discover the specific plans He has for our lives.

The Sabbath—A Call to Prayer, Praise, and Proclamation
The Sabbath also reminds us of the gift of salvation. As we rest upon the Sabbath, we rest in Christ’s finished work in our behalf (Hebrews 4:9, 10). We rest in His grace.

The Sabbath is not a legalistic requirement given to the nation of Israel. It is a grace-filled day for all humanity, leading us to depend solely and completely on Christ for our redemption (Isaiah 56:6, 7). Jesus ended the Creation week with the words, “Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished. And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from His work which He had done” (Genesis 2:1, 2).

He also culminated His work on the cross with the words, “It is finished.” We had nothing to do with the creative work of Christ at the beginning. He began the work, and He finished it. Likewise, we had nothing to do with Christ’s work of redemption on the cross. He began the work of salvation, and He finished it. The Sabbath reminds us to rejoice in His love, rest in His care, and glory in the Christ who paid such a high price for our salvation. The Sabbath is a call to prayer, a call to praise, a call to proclaim His goodness.

The Sabbath also reminds us we are not alone in a desolate world of sorrow. The beauties of nature still speak of our Creator God during this world’s suffering. The Sabbath points us back to Creation, but it also points us forward to the new heavens and the new earth, where God will re-create this world in Edenic splendor.

The Sabbath is a day of thanksgiving. We are thankful God created us and has plans for our lives. We are thankful He redeemed us and has paid such an infinite price for us. We are thankful He is coming again for us and will create a new heaven and a new earth. Let us seek Him with thankful hearts as we pray.

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will.”
EPHESIANS 1:3-5

The Judgment Hour Has Come
Revelation’s first angel’s message announces, “the hour of [God’s] judgment has come” (Revelation 14:7). In the blazing light of eternity, the reality of heaven’s divine judgment leads us to prayerfully seek a deeper relationship with God.

The judgment in Heaven’s sanctuary was foreshadowed by the Day of Atonement in ancient Israel. On the antitypical Day of Atonement in the Old Testament sanctuary system, all Israel gathered around the sanctuary, confessing their sins and seeking God’s forgiveness. Leviticus 23:29 emphatically states, “For any person who is not afflicted in soul on that same day shall be cut off from his people.” To afflict the soul was to seek God in repentance and confession, asking Him for the power to live a godly life.

The honor and reputation of God is at stake in heaven’s final judgment. Questions about His character have been raised before the universe. Is God fair? Are His commands impossible to keep? Is He both loving and just? In the judgment God will reveal that He has done everything possible to save all humanity.

There is nothing more He could have done. His grace is sufficient for all. It is a grace that saves us from both the penalty and power of sin. It is a grace that pardons our past and empowers our present.

The urgency of the judgment hour message leads us to a deep relationship with Christ. We long to honor His name and do nothing that would tarnish His reputation.

We need not fear the judgment, for Christ is our Advocate, our Trial Attorney, and our Judge (John 5:22). In Christ we are sons and daughters of the King of the Universe, part of the royal family of heaven. The prophet Daniel pictures Jesus in the heavenly sanctuary appearing before the Father in our behalf in heaven’s final judgment.

Tens of thousands of heavenly beings press into this courtroom scene. The great controversy between good and evil will soon end. God’s name—His character—will be exalted before the universe (Daniel 7:9-14). It will be seen that He is both merciful and just, that He has given heaven’s most precious gift in Jesus.

Through the ceaseless ages of eternity, we will exclaim, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in

Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved ” (Ephesians 1:3-6).

In our prayer time today, let us examine our own hearts and ask God to reveal anything not in harmony with His will. Let us ask Him to cleanse us from those deep and hidden sins and then thank Him for His grace, His forgiveness, and His power to overcome. Most of all, let us thank Him for Jesus.

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will.”
EPHESIANS 1:3-5


The Judgment Hour Has Come
Revelation’s first angel’s message announces, “the hour of [God’s] judgment has come” (Revelation 14:7). In the blazing light of eternity, the reality of heaven’s divine judgment leads us to prayerfully seek a deeper relationship with God.

The judgment in Heaven’s sanctuary was foreshadowed by the Day of Atonement in ancient Israel. On the antitypical Day of Atonement in the Old Testament sanctuary system, all Israel gathered around the sanctuary, confessing their sins and seeking God’s forgiveness. Leviticus 23:29 emphatically states, “For any person who is not afflicted in soul on that same day shall be cut off from his people.” To afflict the soul was to seek God in repentance and confession, asking Him for the power to live a godly life.

The honor and reputation of God is at stake in heaven’s final judgment. Questions about His character have been raised before the universe. Is God fair? Are His commands impossible to keep? Is He both loving and just? In the judgment God will reveal that He has done everything possible to save all humanity.

There is nothing more He could have done. His grace is sufficient for all. It is a grace that saves us from both the penalty and power of sin. It is a grace that pardons our past and empowers our present.

The urgency of the judgment hour message leads us to a deep relationship with Christ. We long to honor His name and do nothing that would tarnish His reputation. We need not fear the judgment, for Christ is our Advocate, our Trial Attorney, and our Judge (John 5:22).

In Christ we are sons and daughters of the King of the Universe, part of the royal family of heaven. The prophet Daniel pictures Jesus in the heavenly sanctuary appearing before the Father in our behalf in heaven’s final judgment.

Tens of thousands of heavenly beings press into this courtroom scene. The great controversy between good and evil will soon end. God’s name—His character—will be exalted before the universe (Daniel 7:9-14). It will be seen that He is both merciful and just, that He has given heaven’s most precious gift in Jesus.

Through the ceaseless ages of eternity, we will exclaim, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved ” (Ephesians 1:3-6).

In our prayer time today, let us examine our own hearts and ask God to reveal anything not in harmony with His will. Let us ask Him to cleanse us from those deep and hidden sins and then thank Him for His grace, His forgiveness, and His power to overcome. Most of all, let us thank Him for Jesus.
