Verse of the Day (March 6, 2020) #BMSeminary – Chapter 25 begins with a song of exaltation and praise to God for the triumph of His judgment of the world. The survivors of the Great Tribulation lift their voices in praise to God for His protection. The cities of mankind have fallen into ruin and the nations of earth have been brought low (i.e., humbled) before the mighty God who alone has been a refuge from the storm. The vail does not refer to the vail of the temple but to the covering of death that hangs over all nations. Yet God will swallow up death in victory (cf. 1 Cor. 15:54) and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears (cf. Rev. 7:17). This act of His grace will then bring in the millennial kingdom.
