Revelation 19


"He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean."
{Revelations 19:13,14} (NIV) 

Here in this passage we have our Lord Jesus Christ, in His rightful position in front of the armies of God that He commands. He is the Faithful and True, the King of kings, and Lord of lords. These are the armies of heaven, and the chariots of Elisha are in this group. 

In this awesome scene, the Lord is not asking anyone to take off their sandals and obey Him. No! He is riding to bring death and destruction to all who have not surrendered their souls to Him. For all who have not bowed before Him and kissed Him (Ps2). He has a sword, He has an iron club, He has a great horse, and He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. If you are one of those who sees this Lord, this Son of God coming in His garments of war, then friend at that moment realize that there is no hope for you. The passage clearly states that all means all. He is not just coming for the “beast”, nor just for the kings or the generals or the mighty people of this earth, rather He is coming for all flesh. He will by force kill all flesh and will throw them into eternal fire. Rebels against God are rebels to the end, even when there is no hope. 

Friend, the hope is now, today. The hope is in surrender today; kiss the Son of God. He comes to us in meekness, gentleness, humility. He comes with open arms inviting us to surrender our lives and receive the salvation of our souls. The Commander of the armies of God desires us to live and has given His life that we may have life. Praise His holy Name.
