Spiritual Integrative Summary:

Revelation 7 shows that God’s promised blessings are not merely future comforts in heaven, but present realities we can enjoy today on earth. By believing into Christ and contacting Him in our spirit, He becomes our eternal satisfaction, ending all hunger and thirst. By being hidden in God, dwelling under His shadow, the scorching heat cannot harm us. By admitting that we can never live well by ourselves, the Lamb shepherds us daily, feeds us, and leads us to the springs of the water of life. Though tears remain in this age, they are being swallowed up by life, until their ultimate removal in the New Jerusalem.
