F.B. Meyer emphasizes the importance of rooting ourselves in God's Word to maintain spiritual vitality and resilience against life's challenges. He draws parallels between the flourishing of a tree planted by water and the believer's life sustained by meditation on Scripture. Meyer also reflects on the transformative power of God's gentleness and the necessity of prayer, urging believers to seek a deeper relationship with God through intentional communion and trust. He reassures that God is always present, even in trials, and encourages believers to embrace their identity as anointed ones, destined for dominion and fellowship with the Divine.

Horatius Bonar explores the profound question 'How long?' as expressed in Revelation 6:10, emphasizing its significance in human experience and divine communication. He categorizes the cry into three main dialogues: from man to man, from man to God, and from God to man, illustrating the deep yearning for justice and understanding in a world filled with suffering and evil. Bonar highlights the themes of complaint, submission, inquiry, and expectation in the human cry, while also reflecting on God's long-suffering, admonition, and earnestness in His call to humanity. Ultimately, the sermon serves as a reminder of the hope and faith that believers hold onto as they await God's ultimate justice and redemption.
