The Song of Moses and the Lamb

And I saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, beside which stood those who had conquered the beast and its image and the number of its name. They were holding harps from God, 3and they sang the song of God’s servant Moses and of the Lamb:

“Great and wonderful are Your works,
O Lord God Almighty!
Just and true are Your ways,
O King of the nations!
Who will not fear You, O Lord,
and glorify Your name?
For You alone are holy.
All nations will come and worship before You,
for Your righteous acts have been revealed.”
— Revelation 15:2-4


In this vision of glory, the faithful stand victorious—those who endured suffering and resisted evil. They hold harps given by God Himself, and they sing a dual song: the song of Moses, the great deliverer of Israel, and the song of the Lamb, the Redeemer of the world. These two stories—one of rescue from Egypt, the other of redemption through the cross—are united in a single anthem of praise.

This is the culmination of the music of Scripture. The song is majestic and holy, declaring God’s power, justice, and worth. It is a song that acknowledges triumph not through human strength, but through faith and divine victory. Every note is steeped in awe: “Great and wonderful are Your works,” “Just and true are Your ways,” “You alone are holy.” It is the ultimate worship service, the eternal response of the redeemed.

You may reflect on how your music today echoes this final chorus. Have your songs been shaped by both deliverance and redemption—by the parting of seas and the breaking of bread, by the mercy that rescued you and the grace that sustains you? Can you sense that all your praise is leading toward this eternal gathering, where you will join others from every age and nation in lifting up the name of the Lord?

Today, let your heart rest in this promise: that the music will not end. Even now, you are part of a great unfolding song, one that began long ago and will continue forever. Whether your worship today feels triumphant or tender, strong or subdued, offer it as a foretaste of what is to come. Picture yourself standing with the saints, harp in hand, voice lifted, singing the song of Moses and the Lamb. All of heaven awaits that chorus—and your voice belongs in it.


Almighty and Holy God,

Great and wonderful are Your works, just and true are all Your ways. Thank You for the deliverance and redemption that have brought me into Your presence. Help me to live and sing each day as one preparing for that great and final song—the song of Moses and the Lamb. Let my worship now echo the awe and gratitude that will fill heaven’s courts, as I join the redeemed in declaring Your holiness and righteousness. Strengthen me to remain faithful, and fill my heart with hope as I look forward to the day I stand before You, harp in hand, my voice lifted in eternal praise.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

Lamentations 3:22-23 – Even Through the Bad, God is Faithful

Image
The LORD'S lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. --Lamentations 3:22-23 NASB The most significant thing about this wonderful passage is where we find it in the Bible. The Book of Lamentations tells of the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple, which took place over 587 and 586 BC when Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar overran the city. The surviving inhabitants either fled to other countries, were carried away to Babylon as slaves or remained under the brutal rule of an occupying force. Lamentations does not name its author, but it is generally attributed to the prophet Jeremiah. For many years Jeremiah had warned the people and their leaders about their unfaithfulness to God. Jeremiah knew that being chosen by God did not translate to a free pass. He knew that actions had consequences. If God's people were not faithful to God's instructions, bad things would happen. But even...

Study of James 5:19-20

My brothers, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring him back, consider this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and cover over a multitude of sins. — James 5:19-20 James concludes his letter with a final exhortation, emphasizing the importance of restoring those who have wandered from the truth. He speaks to the responsibility believers have toward one another—not only to encourage and strengthen the faithful but also to help those who have drifted away from God’s path. James acknowledges that believers can stray, whether through sin, doubt, or deception. Rather than judging or condemning them, he urges the church to pursue them with love and compassion, seeking to bring them back to the truth. The one who helps restore a wandering soul is participating in a redemptive work, covering a multitude of sins. This phrase reflects the biblical theme that love and grace bring reconciliation, both between individuals and ...

Bible Study: Lydia

On the Sabbath day we went outside of the city by a riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer, and we sat down, and spoke to the women who had come together. A certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one who worshiped God, heard us; whose heart the Lord opened to listen to the things which were spoken by Paul. When she and her household were baptized, she begged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and stay.” So she persuaded us. — Acts 16:13-15 WEB* On his second missionary trip, Paul visited the Roman colony of Philippi (FILL-uh-pie) along with Silas, Luke and Timothy. Philippi was on the famous Egnatian Road—a trade route from Asia to Rome. The city was important during the New Testament due to its agriculture, location, functioning gold mines, and Roman status. Lydia was a businessworman whose name may have come from the Hellenistic district where the town of Thyatira (thigh-uh-TIE-r...
