Revelation 19:11-16

In Revelation 19:11 the Apostle John is witness to heaven being opened as he sees on a white horse One who is called “Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war” (NKJV). Revelation 19:12-16 gives a description of this One on the white horse as, “12His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself. 13He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. 14And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses. 15Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written:

 

KING OF KINGS AND

LORD OF LORDS.

 

This is the description of the Lord Jesus, Faithful and True, The Word of God as He returns.

 

The Bible teaches us in John 1:1-5 (NKJV), “1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was in the beginning with God. 3All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.” This may be difficult to understand, but Jesus is the True and Faithful Word of God in human form. 2 Thessalonians 1:7-8 teaches us that Jesus will be “revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.” The LORD God speaks through the Prophet Isaiah in Isaiah 63:2-4 of those who are trampled in the winepress and of their blood that is sprinkled on His garment. In Hebrews 4:12 we learn, “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” And in Revelation 17:14 the Bible teaches, “These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.” Jesus is our Kings of kings and Lord of lords; He is our Faithful and True Savior who has come to save us from sin (John 1:29, 3:16-17). Put your trust and faith in Jesus today and be saved from the sin of this world.

 

Dear LORD,

The day is coming when we will become aware of our being invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb or be thrown into the winepress to be trampled. Please speak to our hearts that we would open them to You in faith of salvation and be given a new life in Christ that will reserve our place at the marriage supper of the Lamb and prevent us from being thrown into the winepress that will include all who refuse Your great forgiving love and salvation in Christ Jesus – the Savior of the world. In Jesus name I pray, amen.
