The Third Trumpet (Wormwood Meteor)

The third trumpet releases “Wormwood” – a large meteor which will fall on the rivers and springs of earth making them poisonous.

Look For
● A burning meteor falling from space, landing on the rivers and springs
● Many people dying from poisoned water

Revelation 8:10-11
“Then the third angel sounded: And a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many men died from the water, because it was made bitter.”

Wormwood
Like the second trumpet this seems to be another meteor falling from space. It’s hard to understand how the meteor can only land on rivers and especially springs – because springs come from underground and the meteor would have to break up into smaller pieces long before impact to contaminate 1/3 of the worlds rivers. However demons are often called ‘stars’ throughout the bible and this demon’s name could be ‘Wormwood’, especially since the first use of it is capitalised. The second use of wormwood refers to the ‘bitterness’ or poisoning of the waters seen throughout scripture and thus isn’t capitalised. Wormwood the demon could be the one who poisons the rivers and streams.

Unlike the previous trumpet there doesn’t seem to be any visual changes to the water which explains why so many people die from this judgement.
