Jesus is Abel’s sacrifice and Noah’s rainbow. He’s
Abraham’s ram and Isaac’s well. He’s Jacob’s ladder and
Ezekiel’s burden. He’s Judah’s scepter, Moses’ rod, David’s
slingshot, and Hezekiah’s sundial. He’s the Church’s Head and is
risen from the dead. He is a Husband to the widow and a Father
to the orphan.
To those traveling by night, He’s the Bright and the
Morning Star. To those in the lonesome valley, He’s the Lily of
the Valley, the Rose of Sharon, the Honey in the Rock and the
Staff of Life. He’s the Pearl of Great Price. He’s the Rock in the
weary land. He’s the Counselor. He’s the Everlasting Father. The
government is upon His shoulders. He’s Peter’s shadow, John’s
pearly white city. He’s Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of the Living
God.
He’s the One who owns the cattle on a thousand hills. He’s
the One who split the Red Sea. He’s the One who took the children
of Israel out of Egypt into the promised land. He’s the One
who humbled Himself, came to earth, healed the sick, raised the
dead, cleansed the lepers, opened the eyes of the blind, and
turned the water into wine.
He’s the One who fed the five thousand, walked on water,
and cast out devils. He’s the One who humbled Himself, once
again, and became obedient unto death — even the death of the
cross. He’s the One who died on the cross, rose from the dead,
ascended to the right hand of the Father, and ever liveth to make
intercession for us. And He’s coming back very, very soon.
He is Jesus Christ of Nazareth, King of kings and Lord of lords.
Jesus said, I and my Father are one (John 10:30). He
said, “If you’ve seen Me, you’ve seen the Father.” (See John
14:9.) Jesus was God manifest in the flesh.
I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last…
And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And
being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks.
And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto
the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the
foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white
as snow; and his eyes were as flames of fire;
And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a
furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
And he bad in his right hand seven stars: and out of his
mouth went a sharp two edged sword,” and his countenance
was as the sun shineth in his strength.
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he
laid his right hand upon me, saying” unto me, Fear
not; I am the first and the last. I am he that liveth, and
was dead; and behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen;
and have the keys of hell and of death.
REVELATION 1:11-18
