Revelation 22:3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God

and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him.

And there shall be. . . It is the delight of the believer, on the

authority of the word of God, to think on what shall be. We do rejoice

in some things that are now (Rom. 8:1, 1 John 3:2), but in regards to

our salvation, how true are Solomon’s words, “Better is the end of a

thing than the beginning thereof.” Ecclesiastes 7:8

no more curse . . . One of the “all spiritual blessings (Eph. 1:3)” that

we enjoy in the Lord Jesus Christ is that He has borne and done away

with the curse of God against us. The lost go through this world under

this curse and while all things work together for good to God’s chosen

(Rom. 8:28), all things work for evil to these cursed ones. All events

and experiences, even the successes and temporal “good” shall all

culminate in and contribute to the eternal damnation and woe of those

who reject Christ. Transversely, all things, even the failures and

suffering of God’s sheep shall ultimately result in and be the means of

our everlasting joy and security, through the merits of His sacrifice.

Gal. 3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made

a curse for us.

But the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it. . . What a comfort

that whatever else may change, the One Who loved us and washed us from

our sins in His own blood, shall REIGN forever! He is still where

Stephen saw Him as he fell asleep (Acts 7:54-60). He is still where

Isaiah beheld His glorious majesty in the year that king Uzziah died

(Isaiah 6:1-5), and as Isaiah prophesied, of His kingdom there shall be

no end (Isaiah 9:7). Hallelujah!

And His servants shall serve Him. The curse came when Adam ceased to

serve God in submission to His righteous authority and rebelled against

Him. There is no danger of this ever happening again. Having the very

righteousness of God’s own Son, we are infallible. We gained better

standing before God in Christ than we lost in Adam. With the very nature

of God, we shall be incapable of any thought, word or deed which is not

in total, mathematical agreement with His holy will. How worthy He truly

is of the eternal praises which we shall render unto Him with gladness

and song.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus! Rev. 22:20– Chris Cunningham
