TEXT: Revelation 19:11-16
11. And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood; and his name is called The Word of God.
14. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations; and he shall rule them with a rod of iron; and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

DCLM Daily Manna 6th December 2021 MESSAGE:
The judiciary is said to be “the last hope of the common man”. The citizens look forward to having justice when they seek a legal remedy for a special set of circumstances. But men are fallible and that is why we have so many miscarriages of justice. It is not so with God who judges in righteousness and truth.
The text reveals a Personality called Faithful and True, who comes down from heaven on a white horse followed by the armies of heaven, all sitting on horses clothed in fine linen, white and clean. On His head are many crowns, His eyes are as a flame of fire and His vesture is dipped in blood. Out of His mouth is a sharp sword with which He would smite the nations, bringing God’s judgment on them. On His vesture is written the name “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS”.
Jesus came the first time as the Lamb of God – lowly, humble and humiliated. But this time, He is coming as the true and righteous Judge. He will come “…from heaven with his mighty angels, In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ” (2 Thessalonians 1:7,8). For so long, men have despised and snubbed God’s love and invitation. They have followed their evil ways. But God still keeps on beckoning on men to forsake the way of unrighteousness and return to Him. Yet , many have not heeded this call. However, there is still grace today for anyone to repent and escape the fiery wrath of the true and righteous Judge. Today is the day of salvation; tomorrow may be too late.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Don’t wait until it is too late!
