He Rides A White Horse

The ‘Jesus Crisis’ is real. We have tried to understand the Book of Revelation—it is no accident that it is the last book in the Bible. It is not just a book about times, seasons, and end-time events. It is a book about Jesus Christ that is why the first verse reads, “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, to show to his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel to his servant John” Revelation 1:1.

If you knew Jesus you would understand the Book of Revelation. This is why we have a ‘Jesus Crisis’. The Apostle John did not recognize Jesus when God first began to show him the future during his journey through the heavenly. John writes, “And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand on me, saying to me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: I am he that lives, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;” Revelation 1: 17-19.

The Jesus that John saw scared him. He knew Jesus, he walked with Jesus and he saw Christ after He rose from the dead (he recognized Jesus—remember the story of the apostles fishing and John recognized Jesus from the boat when He talked with them from the shore). John knew Jesus but could not recognize the Jesus in Revelation—this is The Forever Jesus. This is the Jesus that will be with us forever and ever. This Jesus has fire in His eyes. He rides a white horse. He comes to battle against all who do not repent, who have not made their robes white in His blood, and who do not have the mark of the Son of God in their lives.

We are in a battle because Christ is in a battle—a battle against darkness and all that is evil. We must not look back or hang onto our past. You cannot have a future with The Forever Christ if you are living in your past. As Jesus gave Peter a future and told him what to do (feed my sheep), so must we find our future in Christ. This is where healing comes into play. Healing from our past, the healing for sins, forgetting of what we did or who we were. We must have and become what God wants us to be—to take hold of our future by finding healing from our past.

This is why 2019 is a year of Battles and Healing; this is where Jesus is at, this is who Jesus is! We must have the Forever Christ. I challenge you to find your future and to let go of your past. Of everything that holds you back from having the Forever Christ from manifesting Himself in your life. Read the Book of Revelation again and ask God to show you Jesus in every verse. Come to God with a broken heart and a contrite spirit. Seek healing and let Christ prepare you to fight. Learn to say what John says at the end of Revelation, “Even so, come Lord Jesus!”
