When the seventh seal is opened, heaven goes silent for half an hour. It's one of the most striking moments in all of Revelation — the prayers of the saints rising before God, followed by fire cast upon the earth, and the sounding of the first four trumpets. This message sits in that holy silence and asks what it means that our prayers matter in the drama of history. The trumpets that follow are not random judgments — they are answers, warnings, and invitations to turn back to the God who still calls.
