The Throne Room of Heaven

1After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up here, and I will show you things which must be hereafter.   EX 19:24–25

2And immediately I was in the Spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and One sat on the throne.   EZE 1:26

3And He that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like to an emerald.   EZE 1:28 | appearance

4And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.   clothing

5And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.   ZEC 4:2

6And before the throne there was a sea of glass like to crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.   EZE 1:5 | living creatures

7And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.   EZE 1:10 | living creature

8And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes inside: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.   ISA 6:2–3 | cease

9And when those beasts give glory and honor and thanks to Him that sat on the throne, who lives for ever and ever,   PS 47:8

10The four and twenty elders fall down before Him that sat on the throne, and worship Him that lives for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,

11You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for You have created all things, and for Your pleasure they are and were created.
