What Does Revelation 15:3 Mean?

The redeemed lift up a song that joins two great deliverances: the song of Moses, sung at the Red Sea when God rescued His people from bondage, and the song of the Lamb, whose blood ransomed them. The words exalt the Lord God Almighty, naming His works great and marvellous and His ways just and true. He is hailed as King over His holy ones.

To bind these two songs together is to confess that one God has been saving His people all along, from the sea of Egypt to the throne of glory. His mighty acts are not arbitrary power but justice and faithfulness wedded together; what He does is true to who He is. This is worship that looks back over a long history of rescue and finds it good. The believer learns here to praise not only for comfort received but for the rightness of God's every way.
