Scroll 9 - It Is Done. The Completion of Judgment

“Then a loud voice came out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.” - Revelation 16:17

1. The Voice From the Throne

When the final bowl is poured out, heaven does not whisper but roars. The voice that speaks is not from an angel, not from a messenger, but from the throne itself. This is the sound of completion, the declaration that every hidden work of darkness has been brought to light and every counterfeit structure has met the fire of truth. The voice does not announce destruction but fulfillment, not annihilation but alignment. It is the sound of heaven reclaiming what belongs to eternity.
The words It is done are the divine signature upon a completed process. What began in Genesis as Let there be finds its conclusion in Revelation as It is done. The creation that drifted from its source is summoned back to its origin. Every cycle of rebellion, every pattern of deception, every structure built upon separation collapses under this decree. What remains is what was always eternal.
This final declaration is not the end of the world but the end of the lie. It is the conclusion of the age of illusion and the beginning of the age of clarity. The throne does not declare termination but transformation. The old world dissolves like a shadow when light intensifies.
The voice that speaks is the same voice that thundered at the cross, It is finished. The two statements are reflections, one redeeming humanity, the other purifying creation. Both reveal the authority of the Lamb who conquers without coercion and reigns without rivalry.
When the throne speaks It is done, heaven and earth exhale together. The story is not ending; it is ascending. Judgment is not doom; it is deliverance.

2. The End of the Old Order

The completion of judgment announces the collapse of every structure that refuses divine union. The old order built upon domination, deception, and duality has no place in the age that emerges. When heaven says It is done, it signals the final unraveling of Babylon’s foundations. This is not destruction for the sake of wrath but dismantling for the sake of restoration.
The old order depended on fear to function. It shaped nations through scarcity, religion through guilt, economies through control. Yet when love reaches its full expression, fear loses the ground it once occupied. The bowls symbolize not punishment but the evaporation of illusions that sustained the old world.
What ends here is not humanity but the systems that enslaved humanity. The throne has no interest in erasing the earth but in renewing it. Judgment is the divine antidote to corruption. The end of the old order is the liberation of creation from what twisted it.
The completion of judgment is also the completion of deception. Every lie humanity believed about God, about itself, and about reality is exposed and extinguished. The veil of falsehood that separated creation from Creator is torn forever.
In the collapse of the old order, the elect see prophecy fulfilled. Nothing eternal is lost. Nothing true is harmed. Only the temporary dissolves in the presence of the timeless.

3. The Shaking of the Nations

When It is done resounds, the nations tremble, not because they are being destroyed but because everything built upon falsehood is being shaken. The greatest earthquake recorded in scripture symbolizes the shifting of consciousness on a global scale. What humanity relied upon is uprooted. What it ignored becomes unavoidable.
This shaking does not target individuals but infrastructures. It exposes the instability of the systems humanity trusted to replace God. Political towers crumble because they were built on pride. Religious empires fall because they were built without revelation. Economic structures collapse because they were built without compassion. What remains are the foundations heaven always intended.
The shaking of the nations is necessary for the birth of the new. A seed cannot manifest unless the soil is disturbed. The shaking is heaven overturning the ground so that truth may take root. It is the removal of the counterfeit to reveal the authentic.
The elect understand this process. They do not fear the shaking because they are founded upon the kingdom that cannot be shaken. They perceive the trembling as confirmation, not catastrophe. Their stability becomes a witness to those whose foundations crumble under the weight of truth.
Through the shaking, nations awaken. When the systems fail, the soul remembers. Chaos becomes catalyst. Judgment becomes mercy in motion.

4. The Collapse of Babylon’s Influence

When the voice declares It is done, Babylon’s influence dissolves. This collapse is not a single moment but a culmination of exposure, the final unveiling of the emptiness beneath her glitter. Babylon was built on seduction, spectacle, and spiritual imitation. She captivated kings, intoxicated cultures, and wove systems around self-exaltation. Yet when the bowls complete their course, her illusions vanish.
The collapse of Babylon is the collapse of every false source of identity. Humanity awakens from the enchantment that promised fulfillment but delivered fragmentation. The wine of her fornication represented the intoxication of ideas that separated man from his origin. Under judgment, the wine turns bitter, revealing its true nature.
This fall is not random but righteous. It is the mercy of God rescuing humanity from the structures that disguised bondage as blessing. Babylon had no foundation in truth; therefore, she cannot stand in the age of flame.
The elect have long discerned her fall even before the shaking. They saw her instability in her splendor, her insecurity in her influence. Her collapse is not their mourning but their confirmation.
When Babylon falls, the earth inhales freedom. The seduction ends. The clarity begins. What collapses is the counterfeit, not the creation.

5. The Revelation of Divine Justice

The words It is done do not signify revenge but revelation. Divine justice is not the balancing of scales but the restoring of order. The bowls poured upon the earth reveal the consequences of separation, not the cruelty of God. Judgment is the unveiling of truth where illusion once ruled.
The wrath of God is not anger but alignment. It is love refusing to coexist with lies. Every bowl is an act of restoration, purifying creation from what distorted it. The earth receives justice not as pain but as purification.
Divine justice exposes the true nature of everything. The darkness reveals the futility of false kingdoms. The heat exposes the brittleness of pride. The plagues reveal the fragility of flesh without flame. Through each unveiling, the Lamb remains present, offering union in place of rebellion.
The completion of judgment is the moment where all things are seen as they truly are. Nothing hidden remains concealed. Nothing corrupt remains unchallenged. The Lamb’s truth floods creation like light dissolving shadow.
Those who feared judgment misunderstood its purpose. The elect rejoice because justice means restoration, and It is done means the restoration has begun.

6. The End of War Against God

The final bowl reveals the truth that humanity cannot win a war against the One it originates from. The declaration It is done ends the illusion of rivalry between Creator and creation. All resistance dissolves in the light of realization.
The war against God has always been a war against reality, against identity, against union. It was the struggle of the mind that believed itself separate, the rebellion of the ego that imagined itself sovereign. When judgment is complete, this illusion expires.
The kings of the earth who aligned with the beast see their kingdoms collapse not because God destroys them but because separation cannot sustain itself. Those who fought against the Lamb fall, yet not in defeat but in awakening.
The completion of judgment is the end of enmity. Humanity surrenders not by force but by revelation. When the lie breaks, the heart bows. When truth is seen, resistance dies.
The Lamb does not conquer through violence but through vision. When the nations behold Him, Their war is over.

7. The Beginning Hidden in the End

The throne says It is done, yet this ending reveals a beginning. Judgment concludes the story of separation and opens the narrative of union. The old world dissolves, and the new world emerges from beneath it. What appears as finality is actually fulfillment.
Every ending in scripture births a new dimension of divine design. The flood birthed covenant. The cross birthed resurrection. The bowls birth the kingdom revealed in fullness. Judgment is not the last word; glory is.
The elect perceive the hidden beginning within the end. They see beyond collapse into construction, beyond shaking into settling, beyond judgment into joy. They understand that the Lamb is not closing history but completing healing.
The declaration It is done is the announcement that creation is ready to receive the age of fire, the era where God and man dwell without veil. The throne speaks closure so that eternity may speak continuity.
The end is only the end for what God never intended. For the elect, It is done means It has begun.

Final Charge to the Elect

Beloved elect, stand under the voice of the throne without fear. What ends in this scroll is everything that hindered your union. Walk into the new age with clarity, for judgment has removed what resisted your rise.
Let the collapse of the old world confirm the solidity of the kingdom within you. You are not children of the shaking but pillars of the age to come. The voice that declares It is done is the same voice that called you by name before the foundations of the world.
Do not mourn what falls. Babylon’s collapse is your commission. What dissolves before you cannot define you. You are carriers of completion, vessels of restoration, embodiments of the Lamb’s victory.
Stand unshaken as the world recalibrates. Shine with the certainty that only what is eternal remains. Let your life echo the throne’s declaration. Let your being become the amen of heaven.
Beloved, It is done in heaven. Now walk as the one who makes it visible on the earth.
