How Majestic is the Name…
How Majestic is the Name…
Jesus Christ…
the Faithful
Witness,
the
Firstborn of the Dead,
and
the
Ruler of kings on earth.
Who loves
us and
has
freed us from our sins by His blood and
made
us a kingdom,
priests
to His God and Father…
To Him be glory
and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Behold, He is coming with the
clouds, and every eye will see Him,
even those who pierced Him, and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of
Him. Even so. Amen.
"I
am the Alpha and the Omega,"
says the Lord God,
"Who is and Who was and Who is to come, the Almighty."”
says the Lord God,
"Who is and Who was and Who is to come, the Almighty."”
Revelation 1:4-8 ESV
“…in
the midst of the lampstands One like a son
of man,
clothed with a long
robe and with a golden sash around His chest.
The
hairs of His head were white,
like
white wool, like snow.
His
eyes were like a flame of fire,
His
feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace, and
His
voice was like the roar of many waters.
In His right hand He
held seven stars,
from
His mouth came a sharp two-edged sword, and
His
face was like the sun
shining in full strength.
When
I saw Him, I fell at His feet as though dead.
But He laid his right hand on me, saying,
But He laid his right hand on me, saying,
"Fear not, I am the first
and the last, and the living one.
I died, and
behold I
am alive forevermore, and
I
have the keys of Death and Hades.”
Revelation 1:12-18 ESV
Nothing Left to Say But…
“And the four living creatures, each of them with
six wings, are full of eyes all around and within, and day and night they never
cease to say,
"Holy,
holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty,
who
was and is and is to come!"
And whenever the living creatures give glory
and honor and thanks
to Him who is seated on the throne, who lives forever and
ever, the twenty-four elders fall down before Him who is seated on the
throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever.
They cast their crowns before the throne, saying,
"Worthy
are You, our Lord and God, to receive glory
and honor and power,
for You created all things, and by
Your will they existed and were created."”
Revelation 4:8-11 ESV
The Lion & the Lamb…
“Then I saw in the right hand of Him who was seated
on the throne a scroll written within and on the back, sealed with seven seals.
And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice,
"Who
is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?"
And no one
in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look
into it, and I began to weep loudly because no one was found worthy to open the
scroll or to look into it.
And one of the elders said to me,
"Weep
no more; behold, the Lion
of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David,
has
conquered, so that He can open the scroll
and its seven seals."
And between the throne and the four living creatures
and among the elders I saw a Lamb standing, as though it had
been slain, with seven horns and with seven eyes, which are
the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.
And He went and took the scroll
from the right hand of Him who was seated on the throne.
And when He had taken the scroll, the four living
creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a
harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.
And they sang a new song, saying, "Worthy
are You to take the scroll and to open its seals, for You
were slain, and by your blood
You ransomed people for God from every tribe and
language and people and nation, and You have made them a kingdom and priests to
our God, and they shall reign on the earth."
Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the
living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering myriads of
myriads and thousands of thousands, saying with a loud voice,
"Worthy
is the Lamb who was slain, to receive
power
and wealth and wisdom
and might and
honor
and glory and blessing!"
And I heard every creature
in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in
them, saying,
"To
Him who sits on the throne
and to the Lamb be
blessing
and honor and glory
and might forever and ever!"
And the four living creatures said, "Amen!"
and the elders fell down and worshiped.”
Revelation 5:1-14 ESV
The Name of All Names…
“After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude
that no one could number, from every nation,
from all tribes and peoples
and languages, standing before the throne and before
the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm
branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice,
"Salvation
belongs to our God who sits on the throne,
and to the Lamb!"
And all the angels were standing around the throne
and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell
on their faces before the throne and worshiped
God, saying,
"Amen!
Blessing and glory
and wisdom and thanksgiving
and honor and power
and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen."
For the Lamb
in the midst of the throne will be their Shepherd,
and He will guide
them to springs of living water, and God will wipe away
every tear from their eyes.”
Revelation 7:9-12, 17 ESV
“And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying,
"Now the salvation and the power
and the kingdom of our God
and the authority of His Christ
have come, for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses
them day and night before our God.
And
they have conquered him by the blood
of the Lamb and by the word of their
testimony, for they loved not their lives even
unto death.”
Revelation 12:10-11 ESV
“And they sing the song of Moses, the servant of
God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, "Great
and amazing are Your deeds,
O Lord God the Almighty! Just
and true are Your ways,
O King of the nations! Who will not fear, O
Lord, and glorify Your Name?
For You alone are holy. All nations will come and worship
You, for Your righteous acts have been revealed."”
Revelation 15:3-4 ESV
“And I heard the angel in charge of the waters say,
"Just are You, O Holy One,
Who is and Who was, for You brought these judgments.
For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them
blood to drink. It is what they deserve!"
And I heard the altar saying, "Yes, Lord God the Almighty,
true and just
are Your judgments!"”
Revelation 16:5-7 ESV
“They
will make war on the Lamb, and the Lamb
will conquer them,
for
He is Lord of lords and King of kings,
and
those with Him are called and chosen
and faithful."”
Revelation 17:14 ESV
Beholding You…
“Then
I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse!
The One sitting on it
is called Faithful and True,
and
in righteousness
He judges and makes war.
His
eyes are like a flame of fire, and
on
His head are many diadems, and
He
has a name written that no one knows but Himself.
He
is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and
the
Name by which He is called is The
Word of God.
And
the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure,
were
following Him on white horses.
From His mouth comes a sharp sword with which to
strike down the nations, and
He will rule them with
a rod of iron.
He
will tread the winepress of the fury
of
the wrath of God the Almighty.
On
His robe and on His thigh He has a name
written,
King
of kings and Lord of lords.”
Revelation 19:11-16 ESV
“Then I saw a new heaven
and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first
earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.
And I saw the holy city, new
Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a
bride adorned for her husband.
And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying,
"Behold,
the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell
with them, and they will be His people,
and God Himself will be with them as their God.
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death
shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor
crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away."
And He who was seated on the throne said,
"Behold,
I am making all things new."
Also He said,
"Write
this down, for these words
are trustworthy and true."
The End is Written…
And He said to me,
"It
is done! I am the Alpha
and the Omega, the beginning
and the end.
To
the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of
life without payment.”
Revelation 21:1-6 ESV
“And
I saw no temple in the city, for its temple
is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb.
And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on
it,
for the glory
of God gives it light, and its lamp
is the Lamb.
By
its light will the nations walk, and
the
kings of the earth will bring their glory into it, and
its
gates will never be shut by day—and
there
will be no night there.
They
will bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations.”
Revelation 21:22-26 ESV
“No longer will there be anything accursed,
but the throne
of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and
his
servants will worship him.
They
will see his face, and
His
name will be on their foreheads.
And
night will be no more.
They
will need no light of lamp or sun,
for
the Lord God will be their light,
and
they
will reign forever and ever…
"Behold,
I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me,
to repay each one for
what he has done.
I
am the Alpha and the Omega,
the
first and the last,
the
beginning and the end."
"I,
Jesus, have sent my angel to testify to you
about these things for the churches.
I am the root
and the descendant of David,
the
bright morning star."
The
Spirit and the Bride
say, "Come."
And
let the one who hears say, "Come."
And
let the one who is thirsty come;
let
the one who desires take the
water of life without price.
He
who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming
soon."
Amen.
Come, Lord Jesus!
The
grace of the Lord Jesus
be with all. Amen.”
Revelation 22:3-5, 7, 12-13, 16-17, 20-21 ESV
