Revelation 8:8-9 Trumpet Judgments: #2 Great, Burning Mountain into the Sea


Rev. 8:8   The second angel sounded, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea; and a third of the sea became blood,  9 and a third of the creatures which were in the sea and had life, died; and a third of the ships were destroyed.


Who sounded the second trumpet? (8:8)
the second angel

What happens after the second trumpet is sounded? (8:8)
something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea . . .” (8:8).

What things were impacted when the burning mountain was thrown into the sea? How were they impacted? (8:8-9)
1/3 of the sea became blood
1/3 of the sea creatures died
1/3 of the ships were destroyed

What impresses you about the second trumpet?
The magnitude of the great mountain burning with fire is revealed in its devastation of 1/3 of the sea, 1/3 of the creatures, and 1/3 of the ships when it is thrown into the sea.

What do you learn about God from Rev 8:8-9?
God created all things and God has the power to destroy the work of His hands.

How could this transform your life?
Acknowledge and worship God as Creator, reverencing His eternal power and divine nature, and give Him thanks.

Creator and Sustainer,
Glory and thanks to You, Father, in the name of the Lord Jesus, for creating all things and for sustaining the living during this present age. Since the creation of the world, Your invisible attributes, Your eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that people are without excuse. Judgment will come like a thief upon those who have exchanged Your incorruptible glory for images in the form of corruptible man, birds, four-footed animals, and crawling creatures. They exchanged Your truth for a lie, and worship and serve the creature rather than You, the Creator, who is blessed forever. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
