So Good!
By: Pastor Todd Crofford
When I saw him, I fell at his feet as if I were dead.
Revelation 1:17
John was known to be a very close companion of Jesus. . In a letter he refers to Jesus as “one he has looked at and his hands have touched.” He was a part of the inner circle who followed him up the mountain of Transfiguration. He leaned in close and laid his head against Jesus at the last supper.
As well as he knew Jesus, nothing could prepare him for seeing Christ in his glory. John admits that one glimpse all but took him out!
One songwriter said it this way, “What a day that will be when my Jesus I shall see.” We constantly balance imagining the human Jesus and the divine Jesus, but I think we defer a lot in this age to the human Jesus. He is our friend, our compassionate savior, and our humble Messiah. He is born in a manger, welcomes in strangers, and walks with us through dangers.
Still… HE IS GOD!
As we start into this final book of the Bible, do not lose sight of the greatness of the One who sits above all time, all thrones, all battles, and all created things. There is no enemy that can best him, no demon that can outsmart him, and no adversary that can survive him.
He is your King- and he is incredible.
