Character of Jesus

Rod Shimabukuro

Scripture

Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war. Revelation 19:11

Observation

Descriptive of Jesus, John identifies the rider as being named the Word of God. On His robe and thigh is written “King of Kings and Lord of Lords.” There is also another name not revealed, written it seems, on His crown or head.

Jesus is called Faithful and True. These are not titles but His character. He is also righteous as a judge. These qualities convey the character of a respected judge, who makes war. This depicts an assertive judge.

Application

I feel so protected - no matter what happens from now till the end of my life. I want to live differently by representing Jesus with the qualities of faithfulness, truth and righteousness. I want the aroma of sacred intimacy with Jesus to be evident through my words and actions.

I desire to be a reflection of His heart and character, being faithful in teaching disciples about the Word of God. I want to reflect Jesus by being a man of integrity in the way I talk to my wife, family, the way I process thoughts about people I have conflict with, how I handle finances.

Prayer

Dear Spirit of God. Thank you for being alive in me, talking to me about how to live for the Godhead. I love You All and ask that you continue to give me strength to obey. Thank You Holy, Awesome Spirit for leading me to be transformed into God’s image! As you know, I have a bunch of inner areas that affect my lifestyle. I need You - I Love You...ALL!
