I believe "Thy Wrath Is Come" is representing the 2nd and 3rd woes in the Lords second coming and final judgement, and it directly relates to the context of Revelation Chapter 11, (The Nation's Were Angry) (The Time Of The Dead That They Should Be Judged)
Rev 9:12 "One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter." End of woe 1.
Start of woe 2. Rev 9:13 "And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,
14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. 15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men. 16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them."
This woe lasts for a little more than 3.5 years. I believe that these are the armies of Dan 11:40-41 "And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over. 41 He shall enter also into the
glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon." It will take some amount of time before the 3.5 years of great tribulation for these armies to move from the Euphrates River to Jerusalem to start the period of great tribulation.
These 2 armies of Rev 9:13 and Dan 11:40 are the same armies. They will take away the sacrifice and set up the abomination of desolation under antichrist the little horn, at the beginning of the 3.5 year great tribulation.
Thus, the 2nd woe continues from Rev 9:13 until Rev 13-14.
13 "And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. 14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly."
During the 2nd woe, the nations are angry. There is no specific mention of God's wrath during the 2nd woe.
During the 3rd woe, the nations are fearful as they are being destroyed by God's bowls of wrath.
This is the beginning of God's kingdom on earth. At this point, the little horn antichrist has lost his ability to attract more followers, although he still maintains his armies in Israel. At this point the armies of antichrist only lose as they are now in a fight against God. Rev11:15 "And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world
are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever."
"are become" is present tense. This is the moment God begins his reign over the kingdoms of this world.
Rev 11:18 "And the nations
were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth."
"And the nations "were angry" is past tense. The moment God begins his reign is the moment the anger of the nations turns to fear because these nations are now being destroyed by God. The destruction of the destroyers is IMO God's wrath. The most complete description of God's wrath IMO is Rev 16, which I don't think will happen in 4 days. Rev 16: 13-14. "13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of
that great day of God Almighty."
That great day of God Almighty will be the final day of God's wrath, the day when God's enemies will become bird food upon the mountains of Israel. This day is also the day of the 2nd great earthquake of Rev 6:14-17.
"and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. 15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: 17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?"
Have you ever noticed how earthquakes and resurrections seem to go together?
The 2 witnesses, Jesus, Lazarus, and finally everyone IMO during this last day, the great day of God's wrath.
