Finding Peace: God’s Promise to Wipe Away Tears Revelation 7:17c

Day 4 – God Wiping Away Every Tear

Key Verse: “And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.” (Revelation 7:17c)

God does not leave us to dry our tears alone. He draws near, touching the very places of our pain. (Psalm 34:18) This is intimacy that our Father is comforting us with His own hand. Few images in Scripture are more tender than this: the eternal, all-powerful God personally wiping away every tear. (Psalm 147:3) He doesn’t simply stop suffering with a command; He comes down, draws near, and caresses our faces with His own hand.

Tears are the language of pain, loss, and longing. They fall when words fail us. But God sees every tear. Psalm 56:8 says He keeps them in a bottle—none are forgotten, none wasted. In heaven, those tears will no longer be needed. Suffering will be fully healed, grief fully comforted, and joy fully restored. (Revelation 21:4)

How do we apply this and what does this mean for us today? It means that in every moment of sorrow, God is not distant. (Psalm 139:7-10) He draws near with compassion. Even when we don’t see immediate healing, we can still trust that God is in control and that the Father’s hand is upon us, and one day He will make all things new. (Proverbs 3:5)

If you carry sorrow right now, hold this promise close: your tears will be wiped away—not ignored, not minimized, but tenderly removed forever.

Supporting Scriptures:

• Psalm 56:8 – “You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle.”
• Revelation 21:4 – “He will wipe away every tear…for the old order of things has passed away.”

Takeaway:
God’s comfort is not abstract—it is personal, tender, and complete. living water; now through His Spirit, and fully in eternity.

Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, I trust You to guide my steps today. Thank You for Your nearness in my sorrow. Teach me to trust that You see every tear and care deeply for me. Help me listen for Your voice and follow Your leading. Lord help me to not doubt what You are telling me, block those thoughts that are not from you.In Jesus Name Amen
