Chapter 1 Jesus Revealed

Jesus in His Glory

Jesus is revealed as our adventure starts in the candlesticks towards the Apocalypse. Jesus is very formidable. He is a Deity and his Glory is evident. He proclaimed to be “the ALPHA and OMEGA , the BEGINNING and the END”. What a great start to the beginning of the Revelation of Jesus, as well as the apocalypse according to John. I like this fact, as John starts out “Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near. John, to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come,”. We start reading a very powerful message and find blessing and assurance that King Jesus has all under control according to Father YHWH’s Will.

Revelation 1 (NKJV)

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, who bore witness to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw. Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near. John, to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne, and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen. “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” I, John, both your brother and companion in the tribulation and kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was on the island that is called Patmos for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet, saying, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,” and, “What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia: to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.” Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands, and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band. His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire; His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, and His voice as the sound of many waters; He had in His right hand seven stars, out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, and His countenance was like the sun shining in its strength. And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last. I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death. Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will take place after this. The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in My right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands which you saw are the seven churches.

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, who bore witness to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw. Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near.

Jesus is revealed as a blessing to us as the words of His testimony blesses us with FAITH, HOPE and LOVE. Thank you Jesus my King and Lord! Jesus is our divine Head. He issues the Orders to the Body and Holy Spirit helps us spiritually to make it happen. We are working hand in hand with Holy Spirit to accomplish the Kingdom of God task that was assigned to each of us. Likewise we need to, with a heart, GO after Jesus! We need to submit to the visions and messages from Jesus and say “YES, Lord Jesus” as you say, let it be done.

Jesus sent an angel to tell John this message from HIM, as a Revelation of things that must come to pass. It is The Apocalypse end of the rebellious ones and all who are in league with the ANTICHRIST SPIRIT, The devil and his angels. This is significant because it is an angel sent by Jesus to convey this to John.

We are blessed if we read and hear this prophecy, and do it. The time is near. Let us pray for understanding of how to keep these truths and live them out as worship to Jesus and Father God.

There is another nugget we don’t want to miss; Grace and Peace ( Gods favor and tranquility in your Soul), Jesus and the Seven Spirits before the throne. Seven Spirits before the Throne of Jesus and Yahweh Father God, is a very interesting study. You must do it with Holy Spirit and what He will reveal to you. This is a very deep study of Holy Spirit and all of who He is. Ask Him to show you as you dive deep into the Word of God and in Holy Spirit.

I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet, saying,

And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands, and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band. His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire; His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, and His voice as the sound of many waters; He had in His right hand seven stars, out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, and His countenance was like the sun shining in its strength. And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me

Jesus is revealed by His very BEING; All of His essence as God. Jesus shines in all His Divine bearing! He is definitely in charge of any conversation or description about Himself. We are extremely encouraged by His being ever present with us. This description of Him is enough of one to where you can close your eyes and almost see Jesus. We will be seeing Jesus soon. We have said this to each other many times, Jesus is returning for His Church Bride. We will spend all of eternity with our Jesus. This is a fore taste of what we are in store for in eternity. How blessed John was to have favor from God to receive this vision and prophetic seeing into the future. How blessed we are who believe. We have a future appointment with our King and Lord Jesus, death of the flesh tent we live in or the rapture of the Church. What a glorious moment that will be.

Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me.

“Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last. I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death. Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will take place after this. The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in My right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands which you saw are the seven churches.

So many of us should have good understanding of our Covenant with Jesus. He has the keys to Hell and Death. We are under the Domain of King Jesus. The domain of the evil spirits are also under Jesus’s domain. They will be rendered Gods Justice for their crimes against us as well as their rebellion against Father God YHWH and Jesus, who is YHWH’s only begotten Son.

CONCLUSION

We are BLESSED when we see that Jesus is awesome in Power and Authority. He is the Beginning and the End, the Alpha and Omega. To know Him and be known by Him , yes we are blessed. We recieved a blessing for reading this aloud or hearing it read. We received a greeting to treasure as we envision John speaking Grace and Peace from Himself and the Seven Spirits before the throne. This statement of John sends the mind to inquire what it means. Intrigue, and wetting of the appetite to learn more about Jesus and heavenly Domain of Father God YHWH, Jesus, Paradise, New Jerusalem and all this which is our future in and with Jesus. we can get excited as we move forward in all these areas.

Prayer

Holy Spirit please open our eyes and heart to see Jesus.
