JESUS IS IDENTIFIED AS THE LORD

 (Old Testament Prophecy - Isaiah 41:4)

“Who has done such mighty deeds, directing the affairs of the human race as each new generation marches by? It is I, the Lord, the First and the Last. I alone am he.”

(Fulfilled in Jesus - Revelation 1:8)

“I am the Alpha and the Omega — the beginning and the end, says the Lord God. I am the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come, the Almighty One.”

(Fulfilled in Jesus - Revelation 1:17-18)

“When I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. But he laid his right hand on me and said, ‘Don’t be afraid! I am the First and the Last. I am the living One who died. Look, I am alive forever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and the grave.”

Thought:

Jesus and God are inseparable from each other and from the Holy Spirit.

Prayer:

Jesus, You are God. In the past, present, and future, You are there. You alone have conquered death. Thank You for going to the cross and taking upon Yourself the penalty for my sin. Because of Your sacrifice and victory over death, I am redeemed to live forever with You and see Your Glory. Thank You, Jesus. Amen.
