Revelation 6:12

I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood.

·        Jesus opened the sixth seal in answer to the prayers of the saints in the fifth seal. This seal begins a new order of supernatural judgment released by the trumpet and bowl series against the Antichrist’s empire. The martyrs cried, “Avenge us” and the wicked will cry, “Hide us.”

·        The sixth seal describes the great agitation of the universe. This is the turning point in history.

 Isaiah 13:13  Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth will move out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts and in the day of His fierce anger.

Joel 2:10  The earth quakes before them, the heavens tremble; the sun and moon grow dark, and the stars diminish their brightness.
