Majestic Lord

A description of the Lord from Revelation 1:

hair a blizzard of white,

Eyes pouring fire-blaze,

both feet furnace-fired bronze,

His voice a cataract,

His mouth a sharp-biting sword,

his face a perigee sun.


Observation: We cannot even imagine the majesty of the Lord.


"I turned and saw the voice .. and fainted dead at his feet." (verses 12, 17)


Observation: Whenwe truly see the Lord we cannot help but fall down and worship.

Revelation 1: 10-17 (The Message)

It was Sunday and I was in the Spirit, praying. I heard a loud voice behind me, trumpet-clear and piercing: 11"Write what you see into a book. Send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, Laodicea." 12I turned and saw the voice.

I saw a gold menorah

with seven branches,

13And in the center, the Son of Man,

in a robe and gold breastplate,

14hair a blizzard of white,

Eyes pouring fire-blaze,

15both feet furnace-fired bronze,

His voice a cataract,

16right hand holding the Seven Stars,

His mouth a sharp-biting sword,

his face a perigee sun.

17I saw this and fainted dead at his feet.
