A. Who is this

Woman?

II. Reviewing the Process

(Rev 12:4) And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood

before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as

soon as it was born.

III. Realizing the Places

(Rev 12:7-8) And there was war in heaven:

Michael and his angels fought against the dragon;

and the dragon fought and his angels, And

prevailed not; neither was their place found any

more in heaven.

(Psa 148:1-7) Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights. Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts. Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him,

all ye stars of light. Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created. He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass. Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps: Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling his word:

Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars: Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and

flying fowl:

(Heb 8:1-5) Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the

right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens; A minister of the

sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man. For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices:

wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer… Who

serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was

admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.

(Psa 19:1-4) The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his

handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto

night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard. Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the

world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

(Isa 14:12-14) How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will

ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of

God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides

of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I

will be like the most High.

(Psa 48:1-2) Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness. Beautiful for situation, the joy of

the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the

sides of the north, the city of the great King.

(Psa 75:6-7) For promotion cometh neither from the

east, nor from the west, nor from the south. But God is

the judge: he putteth down one,

and setteth up another.

(Job 26:7-13) He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing. He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them. He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth

his cloud upon it. He hath compassed the waters with

bounds, until the day and night come to an end. The pillars of

heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof. He divideth the sea with

his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud. By his

spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked

serpent.

Revelation 4

(Rev 4:6) And before the throne there was a sea of

glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and

round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before

and behind.

(Rev 15:2) And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the

victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of

glass, having the harps of God.

(Psa 148:1-7) Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights. Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his

hosts. Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light. Praise him, ye heavens of

heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens. Let them praise the name of

the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created. He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.

Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps: Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind

fulfilling his word: Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars: Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things,

and flying fowl:

Genesis 1

(Gen 1:1-2) In the beginning God

created the heaven and the earth. And

the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God

moved upon the face of the waters.

(Gen 1:6-8) And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the

waters. And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under

the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. And God called the firmament

Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

(Gen 7:11) In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of

the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of

heaven were opened.

(Gen 8:2) The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the

rain from heaven was restrained;

(Job 9:5-9) Which removeth the mountains, and they know not: which overturneth them in his

anger. Which shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars

thereof tremble. Which commandeth the sun, and it

riseth not; and sealeth up the stars. Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea. Which maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of

the south.

(Amo 5:8) Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the

waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name:

(Job 38:29-31) Out of whose womb came the

ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who hath

gendered it? The waters are hid as with a stone,

and the face of the deep is frozen.

Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or

loose the bands of Orion?

(Rev 4:6) And before the throne there was a sea of

glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and

round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before

and behind.

(Rev 15:2) And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that

had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and

over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.

(Job 37:14-24) Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God. Dost thou know when God disposed them, and

caused the light of his cloud to shine? Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him which is perfect in knowledge? How

thy garments are warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south wind? Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and as a

molten looking glass? Teach us what we shall say unto him; for we cannot order our speech by

reason of darkness. Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man speak, surely he shall be

swallowed up. And now men see not the bright light which is in the clouds: but the

wind passeth, and cleanseth them. Fair weather cometh out of the north: with God is terrible

majesty. Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not

afflict. Men do therefore fear him: he respecteth not any that are wise of heart.

(1Co 13:12) For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:

now I know in part; but then shall I

know even as also I am known.

(Job 26:7-13) He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and

hangeth the earth upon nothing. He bindeth up the waters in his thick

clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them. He holdeth back the face of

his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it. He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the

day and night come to an end. The pillars of heaven tremble and are

astonished at his reproof. He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud. By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed

the crooked serpent.

(Job 22:11-14) Or darkness, that thou canst not see; and

abundance of waters cover thee. Is not God in the height of heaven? and

behold the height of the stars, how high they are! And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud?

Thick clouds are a covering to him, that he seeth not;

and he walketh in the circuit of heaven.

(Psa 104:1-6) Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with

honour and majesty. Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain: Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the

clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind: Who maketh his angels spirits; his

ministers a flaming fire: Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for

ever. Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the

mountains.

Job 38 : 1-11

(Job 38:8-11) Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it

brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb? When I

made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a

swaddlingband for it, And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and

doors, And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy

proud waves be stayed?
