Sing hallelujah to the Lord, Sing hallelujah to the Lord, Sing hallelujah, Sing hallelujah, Sing hallelujah to the Lord.

2. Crying Out Hallelujah!
▪ Rev 19:1 After these things I
heard as it were a great voice of
a great multitude in heaven,
saying, Hallelujah; Salvation,
and glory, and power, belong to

3. We often sing the song Hallelujah Praise
Jehovah but I wonder if we really
understand what hallelujah really means?
▪ Hallelujah = to God be praise; praise ye the
LORD
▪ So when we sing Hallelujah Praise Jehovah we
are really saying “praise, praise the Lord!”
▪ The word “Hallelujah” is only found 4 times in
all the Bible and yet it is found in a great number
of our songs, but why? Why is this word such a
part of our Christain vocabulary?

4. Hallelujah is a transliteration, iteration!
▪ It’s etymology is found in Ps. 104:35 Let the
sinners <chatta'> be consumed <tamam> out of
the earth, <'erets> and let the wicked <rasha`> be
no more. Bless <barak> thou the LORD,
<Y@hovah> O my soul. <nephesh> Praise
<halal> ye the LORD. <Yahh>
▪ Halal + yaw = Praise Jehovah/Yahweh/LORD
▪ Found 23 times between Ps. 104:35 & 150:6
▸The last 5 Psalms both begin & end with it!

5. Truly God is worthy of praise!
▪ Even though the Hebrew combination is
found 23 times, the word
“Hallelujah/Alleluia” is only found 4 times
in our English translations all within one
changer and only 6 verses!
▪ Tonight I would like for us to study
together what I would like to call “The Four
Hallelujahs of Revelation 19!”

6. I. The Hallelujah of Redemption!
“After this I heard what seemed to be the loud voice of a
great multitude in heaven, crying out, Hallelujah!
Salvation and glory and power belong to our God!”
▪ Truly there is “only” salvation in Jesus!
▸Acts 4:10-12 cf. Jn. 14:6
▪ We cry hallelujah for the redemption that is only
found in Jesus!
▸1 Pet. 1:18-20 cf. Rev. 1:5
▪ We give God glory & praise for the wonderful

7. II. The Hallelujah of Retribution!
“For His judgments are true and just; for He has judged
the great prostitute who corrupted the earth with her
immorality and has avenged on her the blood of His
servnts. Once more they cried out, Hallelujah! The
smoke from her goes up forever and ever”
▪ Sin will not go unpunished! This can be seen
both as a blessing & a curse!
▪ We can be sure that God is always victorious in
the end!
▸1 Jn. 4:4 cf. Heb. 13:5-6
▸If we turn from sin and seek Him blessings await

8. III. The Hallelujah of Realization!
“And the 24 elders and the 4 living creatures fell down
and worshiped God who was seated on the throne,
saying, Amen. Hallelujah! And from the throne came a
voice saying, praise our God all you His servants, you
who fear Him, both small and great!”
▪ Another name you might give this one is “the
hallelujah of recognition!”
▪ There is only one that is worthy to be worshiped
and that is God alone!

9. God alone is worthy to be worshiped!
Lk. 4:8 And Jesus answered and said to him, "Get
behind Me, Satan! For it is written, 'You shall
worship the LORD your God, and Him only you
shall serve.'"
▪ Creation is not worthy!
▸Rom. 1:25
▪ Men are not worthy!
▸Acts 10:25-26 & 14:11-15
▪ Angels are not worthy!

10. IV. The Hallelujah of Reign!
“Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of a great
multitude, like the roar of many waters and like the
sound of mighty peals thunder, crying out, Hallelujah!
For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns!”
▪ Christ is “now” on the throne!
▸Act. 2:32-36; Heb. 1:13; Rev. 3:21
▪ We are “now” reigning with Him!
▸Col. 1:13,14; 1 Thess. 2:12; Rev. 1:9 & 5:10
▪ This is why we have reason to cry Hallelujah!
▪ If you are a child of God tonight then you are

11. Conclusion:
▪ Truly God is worthy of our praise! From heart
to head, from head to heart!
▪ It is my hope and prayer that we will leave here
tonight better understanding “why” we sing
Hallelijah!
▪ Have you come to sing Hallelijah in your life?
Have you come to know the redemption that is
only found in Jesus? If not then will you come to
know it even tonight?
