Rev. 9 11They had as king over them the angel of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek, Apollyon.

The Revelation is a timeless description of the Throne of God. God responds to the events of the earth in one view. We could describe it as the events from the earth that transpire until the end of time are all happening at the same time. You could describe it as saturns beams but they are stack up. You can stand in the middle and see the entire procession of time. Because the Revelation is a book images we must interpret when the events are transpiring by the ot and nt name given to the Devil. These descriptions of the Revelation are the responses from the throne of God in the ot and to the end of our age toward wayward nations. The entire history of the world can be viewed in these layers.

Gods army in heaven breaks into time in order to judge the wayward nations. Just as the law curses sinners so on earth so the seals and trumpets are the curses from heaven. Just as the blessing is pronounced upon Gods people it is described as a seal in heaven. God has made heaven a mirror of His creation on earth. When we speak the pronouncements we are aligned with the responses from heaven. The pronouncements open the judgements from heaven. Our tears and prayers are stored up to bring the judgements from heaven against wayward nations. If your gonna believe in all of the promises of God to give us what we ask then and Revelation described heaven unlike the earth then it would be a contradiction. God must describe the events in time wit hall of the means that we have at our disposal in order to relate to the events in heaven through these means. The more we pray and worship the more we are protected by the armies of heaven in all ages.
