“How Long, O Lord?” | Revelation 6:9–17 (ESV)Series: Thy Will Be Done: Final Parables of the Kingdom - Revelation Pastor: Pastor Patrick DaileySunday MorningDate: 19th April 2026Passage: Revelation 6:9-17-------------------Welcome to Ontario Community Church’s Sermon Podcast.Pastor Patrick Dailey preaches “How Long, O Lord?” from Revelation 6:9–17. Week 14 of Thy Will Be Done, our 42-week series through Revelation.The Lamb opens the fifth seal, revealing the souls of the martyrs beneath the altar. They cry, “How long?” They are given white robes and told to rest until the family of faith is complete. The sixth seal shakes creation with earthquake, darkened sun, blood moon, falling stars. The kings and great ones beg the mountains to hide them from God’s face.Key themes: no life is forgotten by God; the Persistent Widow’s cry in apocalyptic form; why the martyrs rest under the same altar where the saints’ prayers rise (Lev 4:7); the white robe as God making everything new; two kinds of hiding.Connected readings: Psalm 79:10–13, Joel 2:30–31, Leviticus 4:7, Isaiah 2:19, Luke 18:1–8Download today’s resources: • Sermon Slides PDF: https://ams3.digitaloceanspaces.com/yash/media/attachments/church_190/71d31c38-31a0-4114-801e-80696208f4d0-04.19.2026_-_Slides.pdf• Congregational Notes PDF: https://ams3.digitaloceanspaces.com/yash/media/attachments/church_190/869aa2a4-cb30-4418-b7cd-ac2980b097da-04.19.2026_-_Congregational_Slides.pdfCheck out our website for more information about our church at: https://ontariocommunitychurch.org/To donate to our ministry, please go to the link here: https://tithe.ly/give_new/www/#/tithely/give-one-time/7411159To check out our sermon archive, please go to this link: https://yetanothersermon.host/_/ontario/sermons/To check out all of our social media, please go to our link: https://lnk.bio/ontariocommunitychurchDownload our Ontario Community Church mobile apps:For Android devices (Google Play Store): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ontariocommunitychurch.app&pcampaignid=web_shareFor Apple devices (App Store): https://apps.apple.com/us/app/ontario-community-church/id6475359102
