The prayers of God's people play a significant part in all this.

Revelation 8:1-5

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 seven trumpets were given to them.

Another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all God’s people, on the golden altar in front of the throne. The smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of God’s people, went up before God from the angel’s hand. Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and hurled it on the earth; and there came peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning and an earthquake.

Solemn silence follows the breaking of the last seal. We are brought to the time of the end.

The first six judgments which follow the trumpet-blasts each the plagues of Egypt recorded in Exodus 7-12

The prayers of God's people play a significant part in all this.

Why?

Christian's prayers play a significant part with the incense to offer before the Lord.

The censer filled with fire and hurled it on the earth, bring huge disaster to the world.

2刻是半小時，這是更大大災難來之前的時候，整個宇宙都嚴肅的等待發生。安靜時就是聖徒在禱告，聖徒要領受印記。神多麼看重我們的禱告。連天使的敬拜也停下來，這是比喻神看重禱告，同樣我們是否也看重親近神，向神的禱告。

聖殿的壇是銅的，天上的祭壇的壇是金的。香先獻在金的祭壇上燒，真正的禱告都有獻祭的性質，是一種捨已，都有犧牲、奉獻自己的成份在裏面。火是由聖徒禱告的香出來的。神的七號有我們的禱告。聖徒的禱告及神的火是世界上最大的力量，沒有人能夠抗拒。讓我們的禱告合神的心意！親近主！

To the time of the end everything in the world will disappear.
