Verse:
When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. Then he placed his right hand on me and said: “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last Rev 1:17
Thought:
John was called by Jesus, John walked and lived with Jesus, He saw all the miracles, In the upper room He was leaning on the bosom of Jesus, He saw Jesus being crucified, He rejoiced and walked with Jesus for 40 days after resurrection, John saw Jesus going up in the cloud, He never fell prostrate in front of master like a dead man any time before. But when He saw Jesus in His glory in Patmos after 60 years after His Resurrection He fell at His feet like dead man. Did you see Jesus in His glory. Cry! Jesus I want to see you in all glory. In His glory; what is the message Jesus gave to John?
a. He touched and said Do not Fear . That’s God’s desire for you and me, not to fear that’s why it is there 366 times in the bible do not fear.
b. I am the First and the Last. Everything in your life happened with His knowledge, He is in control and He is the end, He has seen everything. Why worry for He has kept and planned the best for me.
Prayer:
Jesus I want to see you in all your glory and never to live in fear and truly believe and understand that you have a perfect plan for me and you are in total control. Amen.
