The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things that must soon take place. (Revelation 1.1)

Shall we every truly understand the depths of Jesus Christ’s revelation to the humanity made in His image? Can finite humanity every truly grasp infinite truth? Jesus stepped down into His creation and in the train of His glory He drew together all the threads of prophetic revelation from the beginning of space and time. His years of earthly ministry were the narrow neck of an hourglass, channeling all truth and reality through Himself to those searching.

In His Divinity Christ has flipped the hourglass of time over. All the sands of history are falling through Him, revealing His mission and purpose to all who will set their eyes on Him. Every grain that falls point us back to the ascended Son of God, seated at the right hand of the Father. Every verse recorded over the centuries, every witness from the men, women and children who confessed Christ as Lord across the millennia is piled up around the nations. Every passing moment is filled with the gravity of His revelation. Whether the lost will choose to recognize the weight of His eternal glory Jesus continues to rain down on our current existence with His enduring witness of the Father’s love.

As servants of the Most High God, He is calling us to take heed to the times and respond to the revelation that He is proclaiming through Jesus Christ our Lord. May we set our eyes on Him, enthroned at the center of space and time. May we rejoice with the great cloud of witnesses that have gone before us.

Jesus, help me see you more clearly and understand your revelation more profoundly, today.
