2) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
When He metes out punishment, in Words, He does speak.
For it is His Creation there, and He made the rules.
Those professing to be wise, they are truly, fools.
3) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Total length of these far more, than a normal week.
The first set from the Exodus, in God's Word, to know.
When God commanded Pharoah to ''Let My People Go''.
4) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Once started, they can't be stopped; and them, man can't tweak.
First, the water turned to blood, then frogs did infest.
Then, the dust turned into lice, where one got no rest.
5) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
For the rest, only the Jews, had relief, they'd seek.
Swarms of flies filled Egypt there, anthrax killed their cows.
But, to pressure that was there, Pharoah would not bow.
6) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Boils covered the Egyptians, worse than a water leak.
Hail, fire, and then locusts, all the crops destroyed.
But, judgment's peak, still had not, truly been deployed.
7) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Darkness then fell everywhere, for three days in the week.
After all this, Pharoah still, refused to relent.
So, Passover, most severe, from God, would be sent.
8) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
In fear, Egyptians gave the Jews, jewels, wealth, they did seek.
Each family was then to take, lamb unblemished, there.
To kill it, sprinkle its blood on, the door lintels, there.
9) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
At midnight, the first born was what, Death Angel there, did seek.
But, when He saw the slain Lamb's Blood, on the doorposts, there.
He would Pass Over The House, firstborn death, was spared.
10) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Pharoah called up Moses, and, angrily did speak.
''Take your people, flocks, and herds, and get out of here!!''.
All Egyptians there, agreed...for they were in fear.
11) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
But, Pharoah had second thoughts, on words he did speak.
His army did pursue the Jews, then drowned in The Red Sea.
The Salvation of The Lord, was there for all to see.
12) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Now, to what's known as Daniel's seventieth week.
Three sets of seven judgments there, each one more severe.
At the end of all of them, The Lord, would then, appear.
13) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
''Peace And Safety'' what the world, and the Jews, did seek.
Treaty signed between the Jews, and the Antichrist.
Thinking he's Messiah, there; but they will pay a price.
14) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
A Third Temple, there rebuilt, for worship, Jews did seek.
But, as the seals opened there, by The Lord of Hosts.
The plagues start to pummel Earth, the lost would regret most.
15) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Peace removed now from the Earth, like a flooded creek.
War erupts, then famine comes, then death on massive scale.
Mass murder of Christians there, many scream and wail.
16) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Earthquake, mountains, islands there, moved from all their peaks.
Blackened sun, and blood red moon, stars from the sky, fall.
For protection from The Lord; to mountains, rocks, man calls.
17) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Heaven silent for a time, no sound, praise to speak.
Trumpet judgments now prepared, judgments full of thirds.
''Woe To Them Upon The Earth'', warnings that are heard.
18) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
As these come in frequency, the outlook is bleak.
A third of trees, a third of grass, are destroyed by fire.
For mankind would not repent, of their sins desire.
19) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
A third of oceans turned to blood; from stench, it does reek.
A third of sea life perishes, a third of ships destroyed.
It will get worse from here out, as judgments deployed.
20) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
A third of fresh water poisoned; clean water, many seek.
Light from the sun, moon, and stars, reduced by one third.
Mankind still will not repent, though these have occurred.
21) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
From the pit, demonic locusts, the unsaved, they seek.
Stings worse than a scorption, these will try to die.
Suicide eludes them there, no matter what they try.

The four beings that were bound, until this day and week.
Released from their prison to, kill third of mankind.
Most souls still will choose to be, spiritually blind.

''The world's kingdoms are now Christ's''; the angel does speak.

The Temple now is desolate, with words The Beast, does speak.
One third of Jews now realize, they have been deceived.
Flee to Petra, for protection, that they will receive.

The bowl judgments not diluted, of full strength, not weak.
After all these finished there, God's Wrath will be done.
Then, time for return to Earth, Of Christ, God's dear Son.
26) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
To buy, sell, or hold a job, or benefits, to seek.
Every soul must take the Mark, in forehead or hand.
But, all these who do this will, be forever, damned.
27) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
But, those with faith there in The Lord, it for them, not weak.
Arrested, tortured, and beheaded, many martyred there.
But, for all these, Heaven's Joy, eternally prepared.
28) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Painful, grievous, boils, sores; horror one can't speak.
Covers all the bodies of those who took the Mark.
Sleep all but impossible, discomfort, pain, so stark.
29) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
All the oceans turned to blood, it's not for the meek.
All the ships destroyed as well, all sea life, now dies.

30) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Since the blood of Christians there, the unsaved did there, seek.

With final bowl poured, "It Is Done", words the angels, speak.
Earthquake of such magnitude, destruction, far and near.
Islands, mountains, all collapse, from Earth, disappear.
34) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Now, the final judgment comes, truly, is the peak.
Hailstones, one hundred pounds, fall there from the sky.
But, mankind will not repent; but curse God, and die.
35) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
In mountains of Petra there, the remnant Jews, now seek.
That their True Messiah, was, and is, Christ The Lord.
They cry ''Blessed Is He Who Comes, In Name Of The Lord''.
36) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Armies fight at Armageddon, victory, they seek.

Swords now beat to plowshares and, war, no one will seek.
At end of Millennium, Satan is released.
Last attempt to destroy, The Lord's reign of peace.
40) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
None of this suprised The Lord, from it, He didn't freak.
Fire fell from Heaven there, rebels in defeat.
Current Earth is now destroyed, never to repeat.
41) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Judgment Of The Great White Throne, lost souls there, can't speak.
Everything they've said and done, open or concealed.
No guilt question, pardons, mercy, or even appeal.
42) God's Judgments get more severe, right up through their peak.
Compelled by Truth Of God's Word, ''Christ Is Lord'', they speak.

With Satan and his demon hordes, Lake Of Fire, their fate.

If you will repent of sin, and The Lord, there seek.
Knowing you're a sinner there, and can't your sin debt pay.
He'll save you, for into Heaven, He's The Only Way.
