Rev.5:11-14 – Then I looked, and I heard the voices of many angels around the throne and the living creatures and the elders; and the number of them was myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands, saying with a loud voice,
“Worthy is the Lamb that was slaughtered to receive power, wealth, wisdom, might, honor, glory, and blessing.”
And I heard every created thing which is in heaven, or on the earth, or under the earth, or on the sea, and all the things in them, saying,
“To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be the blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion forever and ever.”
And the four living creatures were saying, “Amen.” And the elders fell down and worshiped.
This passage is kind of a fast forward to where all of these events are ultimately heading. Paul said something about this in Philippians 2:9-11 – saying, “For this reason also God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus EVERY KNEE WILL BOW, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” So this is where all of the apparent chaos that is about to unfold in the book of Revelation is heading, after the smoke literally clears, all of creation will acknowledge that Jesus is Lord of all. Here is how the NCCS describes this.
“And with that, the entire throng of all created beings burst into a final doxology to both the Father and the Son. So as to miss none of these beings able to offer praise, John expands the singers to include every created being in the entire cosmos: every creature in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them.”
Every duck, octopus, gecko, and opossum will join in with the heavenly song. That’s why they all exist, that’s why you exist. We were created then we were redeemed by the blood of Jesus so we can join in with this heavenly song. So why wait? Why not join in now and sing to the Lord? The elders are singing, the angels are singing, the redeemed from all nations are also singing; all are being led by the four strange creatures before the throne. Let everything that has breath give praise to the Lord.

I am anticipating this day of celebration. I have not imagined that on that day the whole creation would be rejoicing also. Wow… Wow… Wow! The whole earth, all of creation,, the whole universe, the angels and the redeemed will be rejoicing all together in unison song to our Lord God our Savior. Hallelujah!
