Soon and very soon. “Look! He is coming with the clouds.” Not long ago, I cooked up a series on the book of Revelation, going to people’s homes in various neighborhoods around the city to gather with people who lived in those areas to eat and to study. I called...
Lord, your kingdom come. Your will be done. Come, Lord Jesus. Amen.
Second Samuel records the final words of David. David takes comfort in the covenant that God has made with his family, which must be continued by kings who will honor God and rule justly. The psalmist sings of this same covenant with David’s family and the same necessity to follow God’s decrees in order to rule well. Revelation opens with a vision of Jesus Christ, the fulfillment of the Davidic covenant, the King to rule over all kings for all time. Many expected Jesus to set up a political kingdom. Yet in John, Jesus tells Pilate that his kingdom is not an earthly one. This week let us thank God that the kingdom is based not on the exercise of power but on Jesus’ example of serving others.

• Read Revelation 1:4b-8. How do you bear faithful witness to “the Alpha and the Omega”?
