Revelation 15: Preparation for the Seven Last Plagues
Revelation 15 documents the final celestial preparation before the 'Bowls of Wrath' are poured out, completing the judgment of God. It highlights the saints standing on the 'Sea of Glass,' singing the Song of Moses and the Lamb, which links the final Exodus from sin to Israel's ancient Exodus from Egypt.
And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.
Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.
And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.
And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.

The fact that 'no man was able to enter the temple' until the plagues were finished indicates that the time for intercession has ended and the time for execution has begun.
