Then the fifth angel sounded: And I saw a star fallen from heaven to the earth. To him was given the key to the bottomless pit. [Rev 9:1]
There are some interesting things to observe in this verse. The star mentioned here seems to refer to a person rather than a literal star or meteor. His fallenness is a clue to this beings identity. In Luke 10:18, Jesus said He saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. [Walvoord]

When He had come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him. And behold, a leper came and worshiped Him, saying, Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean. - Matthew 8:1-2
This is right on the heels of the Sermon on the Mount. After Jesus taught the precepts of the Kingdom, He came down from the mountain and showed His authority. He immediately met a leper and healed him.
His walk ratified His talk. Our Lords minis...

When He opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and to them were given seven trumpets. [Rev 8:1-2]
This describes the breaking of the seventh and final seal. Seven seals hold closed a scroll written inside and on the back. [Rev 5:1]. I believe this scroll is the title deed to the earth. Upon it is opening, Jesus will physically begin to rule the e...

Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock; and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. - Matthew 7:24-25
The Therefore in 7:24 is an especially important word. It connects us to the previous sections of the Sermon and then leads us to its conclusion. Therefor...

After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, [Rev 7:9]
After these things connects us to the first group in Rev 7; one hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel [Rev 7:4]. As a whole, Chap 7 is the first ...

Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. - Matthew 7:1-2
Right judgment flows from right discernment, and that makes discernment an important asset in this life of faith. Right discernment is a gift from the Holy Spirit.
Jesus said, It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come t...

And I heard the number of those who were sealed. One hundred and fortyfour thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel were sealed [Rev 7:4]
The Lord is not finished with Israel. Revelation 7:1-8, along with several other Scriptures [Rev 14:1-5 and Rom 11 for starters] clearly describe Israel coming to know Jesus as Messiah. This will take place during the seven year Tribulation. Antichrist will try to destroy Israel but w...

Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. - Matthew 6:17-18
This was a passage that captivated my attention years ago as a non-believer because it had to do with money. Way b...

When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held. [Rev 6:9]
At first glance this fifth seal seems unique in that it doesnt administer any sort of judgment. And they cried with a loud voice saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth? [Rev 6:10, emphasis mine] No judgme...

But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, so that you do not appear to men to be fasting, but to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. -Matthew 6:17-18
Fasting is a spiritual practice oftentimes overlooked in our day. Perhaps it is because we are not commanded to fast in the New Testament. Then the disciples of John [the Baptist] came to Him [Jesus], sa...
