7:11
So there is acknowledgement of Christ as Lord from mankind, there is equal acknowledgement from the angels, the elders and the living creatures, i.e from the heavenly beings. They all fell down and worshipped God. This is the truth, and we need to have this heavenly truth firmly imprinted on our minds.
7:12
They worshipped God by ascribing “praise, glory, wisdom, thanks, honour, power and strength” to Him. When facing persecution it can seem that these qualities belong to the oppressing power. The oppressor can seem to have all the power and strength, the oppressing power demands thanks and honour and praise, the oppressing power claims to have glory and wisdom. But none of this is true, all these thighs belong to our God, and to Him alone.
