Revelation 1:10
"I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day,
and heard behind me a great voice,
as of a trumpet."
John was in the Spirit. That means he was in an ecstasy in which he was lifted beyond the things of space and time into the world of eternity. "The Spirit lifted me up said Ezekiel (Ezek. 3:12), "and I heard behind me the sound of a great earthquake." When John heard the voice it was like the sound of a trumpet. The sound of the trumpet is interlaced into the language of the New Testament. (Matt. 24:31; 1Cor. 15:52; 1Thess. 4:16). The voice of God has a commanding, and unmistakable clarity of a trumpet call.
John was in a place where, all he had was God. So John was in the right place and it was in God's time, and must of all he was in God's Heaven when he was told to write the vision which he saw. It was his duty to share the message which God gave to him. Now it was not a special duty, but a duty all Christians have, "Listen and obey God"
A man must first hear and then transmit, exactly what he heard and who he heard it from, even if the price of the transmission is costly. When a man has a vision he must withdraw to see his vision, then he must go forth to tell it. The Scriptures read that he turned to see the voice. Question? What would we say! Probably this, "I turned to see who it was speaking to me, because I didn't quiet recognize the Voice. My friends; we must know the sound of our God's Voice!
Amen!

(Matt. 24:29-31)
(1 Cor. 15:51-58)
(1 Thess. 4:13-18)
