Individual/Small Group Study
Revelation 5:7–8 shows the Lamb taking the scroll and being worshiped by the elders and living creatures—how does this moment fulfill Daniel 7:13–14 and emphasize the Lamb’s divine authority?
Why do the elders hold golden bowls of incense, which are the prayers of the saints, and what does this say about the role of prayer in the heavenly realm?
In Revelation 5:9–10, the new song praises the Lamb for ransoming people from every tribe and nation—how does this echo Isaiah 49:6 and Acts 1:8, and what does it tell us about the global scope of salvation?
How should the reality that Jesus made His followers a kingdom and priests to God (v.10) influence how we see our identity and mission today?
In Revelation 5:11–12, myriads of angels worship the Lamb with loud voices—how does this cosmic chorus compare to Philippians 2:9–11 and deepen our understanding of Christ’s exaltation?
The final verses (Revelation 5:13–14) show every creature in heaven and earth blessing the Lamb—how should this universal praise shape our worship and view of God’s ultimate purpose for creation?
