Revelation 22:3,4 - They will see His face

22:3

After the fall the Lord cursed the ground and other aspects of life (Gen 3:16-19). In the new Jerusalem there will be no more curse. A good working definition of “curse” is “God’s judgement on man’s sin”. The judgement is removed completely. The “throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city”. After Adam and Eve sinned they hid from God. This is the effect of sin. God is meant to be at the centre of our lives. “And His servants will serve Him”. We are sons of God, and we are servants of God.

22:4

“They will see His face”. Moses was not allowed to see the face of God (Ex 33:20,23). We will see God face to face! “And His name will be on their foreheads”. Our dedication will be completely to the Lord. We should note that the talk in Revelation about marks on foreheads etc is not about having chips implanted, or any such thing. It is about our heart attitude, the orientation of our lives. Is it toward God or is it toward the devil.
