In these last days [God] has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things (Hebrews 1.2a)

Emissaries are scattered around the globe, representing different nations and political powers. At any given moment men and women are brokering peace and agitating wars in the name of their prelates and presidents. Ambassadors and charges d’affaires represent their absent kings and premiers. They are not imbued with their master’s authority but they do carry the air and weight of power.

Through the centuries God sent people to express Himself and His will for Israel and the nations. No one can say God left His nature or His desire unrevealed. His omniscience, omnipotence and omnipresence are voiced through songs and stories, psalms and prophecies. God promised Eve a son to be her Savior. Miriam sang songs of her Deliverer. Truly, who is like the Lord of all creation, majestic in holiness and awesome in glorious deeds? Moses set down God’s law for His people. David called them to purpose.

But Jesus is not just another messenger. He is fully man, like the host of humanity inspired by the Spirit of God to write His revelations. But Jesus is much more. He is fully God. He is the Revealer Himself! He is the Creator. He is the voice of the Father, and as the Son of God all things belong to Him. All of creation. All the created.

We live within His created realm and have the privilege to chose allegiance to a merciful and compassionate King who personally speaks to each of us. God does not leave Himself without a witness. He is the witness Himself.

Jesus, thank you for witnessing Your Life into my existence.
