9 After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands.

+Multitude: they were saved and redeemed by the Lamb of God.

+standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb: They were accepted by God.

+white robes: purity

+palm branches: victory

10 And they cried out in a loud voice: "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb."
11 All the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. They fell down on their faces before the throne and worshiped God,

+They gave honor and praises to God.

12 saying: "Amen! Praise and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor and power and strength be to our God for ever and ever. Amen!"
13 Then one of the elders asked me, "These in white robes--who are they, and where did they come from?"
14 I answered, "Sir, you know." And he said, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

+They are overcomers.
+They maintained their clean life.

15 Therefore, "they are before the throne of God and serve him day and night in his temple; and he who sits on the throne will spread his tent over them.

+God gave them eternal dwelling.

16 Never again will they hunger; never again will they thirst. The sun will not beat upon them, nor any scorching heat.

+Unlimited provision and security

17 For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; he will lead them to springs of living water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."

"The Seal of Ownership of God in our lives starts with our RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM."

*Matthew 24:12-13
"12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold,
13 but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.
