“And  I saw the seven angels who stand before God,
and to them were given seven trumpets.”
Revelation 8:2 

The second in a series of these judgments, the seven trumpet judgments are ushered in through the seventh seal judgments. Described in detail in the eighth chapter of Revelation, the trumpet judgments clearly shown that God created the heavens and the earth and is in control of the elements.

In the tribulation, God will unleash His wrath in a similar way that He did when He unleashed the plagues against Egypt. These judgments will be signaled by a trumpet sound and unleashed by special angels stationed throughout the heavens. When reading this passage today, keep in mind God’s sovereignty over the affairs of men. Maybe you are facing difficult circumstances in your life right now and it seems impossible that anything will work out for good? However, the Lord is powerful and able to work mightily in your life. If He can create the world and judge it, He certainly can take care of your problems as well!
