Someone asked me if I had considered drawing the throne of God, and I replied, that no one I thought had seen the face of God. He prayed that I could have dreams and visions and a word from the Lord and draw it. If you read Revelation 4, as always it is all right there. Bear with me!

Revelation 4:2 And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.Revelation 4:3 And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. Revelation 4:5 And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

So it was all there. There was someone sitting on a throne. I put that. He was as to jasper (red, yellow and blue stone with some black or white marks) and sardine stone, which is red. God is so great! because all of the colors known to man are made from these colors! He is a colorful God! And I love colors! I put blue feet, because when Moses came off the mountain, it was like blue tiles under his feet. (Gospel of peace!) Then the emerald rainbow round about the throne. I couldn't put the thunder or the seven lamps of fire burning before the throne because they wouldn't have fit on my paper, but they were there as the Bible says . I put hair white as wool which sometimes is the description and jasper can be white. Does God look like this? There are other descriptions in other parts of the Bible. This is my rendition according to Revelation 4, I have not seen God.

Now the answer to the prayer that the man made for me. I did have a vision about a month later. I got up in the night to use the bathroom and looked out my big bedroom window as God had blessed me with a new house and about a half acre on a hill. It was all dirt at the time as I had only lived there a while. Out of the night sky dropped a huge big dipper right in front of me as big as my backyard. Around the dipper were about 10 dancing stars. Then I fell back on my bed and fell asleep. I was in shock for some time about that. My interpretation was a reminder that Jesus is the big dipper because He is the living water and we are the little dippers as he fills our cups and our cups runneth over. The stars were happy and somewhere in the Bible I think that there are dancing stars. Remember this as you look into the night skies. Don't believe those other stories about the dippers!

Also that same year as I looked out my window in the night in the rain, the rocks shined like gold with the street lights. That never happened again. " Buy from me gold tried in the fire" We have nothing God wants as far we can use for exchange, but our lives that goes through our trials!
|
Revelation 4:4And round about the throne were four and twenty seats;
|
and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.
|
Revelation 4:10 The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,
|
Revelation 4:11 Thou art worthy, Oh Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
|
Rev. 4:6b and in the midst of the throne,
|
and round about the throne,
|
were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
|
And the first beast was like a lion,
|
Rev. 7:7 and the third beast had a face as a man
|
Rev. 8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him:
|
and they were full of eyes within
|
and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.
|
and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.

This is my rendition of Revelation 4
