THE KING IS COMING

REVALATION 19:11-21

For the last 6000 years, the human drama has been unfolding. Since man sinned in the Garden of Eden, History has been moving towards one great event. That Event is the day when Jesus Christ returns to this world in power and glory to reign on the throne of David his Father.

“Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end on thrown of David and over his Kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with Justice and with righteousness from this time fourth and forevermore. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this (Isaiah 9:7).

“He will be great and will be called the son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of His Father David.” (Luke 1:32).

When Jesus Christ was on this earth, He made many promises to his followers, but perhaps none is so great as His promise that He will indeed return to this earth one day. (Mathew 24:27-30).

The last recorded words of the Lord Jesus in the Bible are, “Surely I come quickly” (Revelation 22:10)

Jesus is coming again.” He will return in the rapture to claim His people in the air (John 14:1-3, 1^st Cor 15:15-52, 1^st Thessalonians 4:13-17)

The first part is when He returns in the clouds to receive His bride (the church) and the second part is the returns in glory to defeat His enemies and to reign upon the earth. It is this event we want to focus on today; I really want you to know today the King is coming. He will reign in peace and glory upon this very earth. You need to make sure that you are ready to meet Him when He comes the first time, so that you can come back with Him when He returns the second time.” THE KING IS COMING “Let us learn:-

HIS COMING WILL BE VISIBLE (REVALATION 19:11-16)

When the rapture takes place, it will be so sudden and swift that people will not even know what has taken place, as a thief is the night, Jesus will come and steal away His Jewels from the Earth and will take them to Heaven.
The rapture will not be a visible event
However, when Jesus returns the second time in glory and power, every one, everywhere will know about it.
In Revelation 1:7, it says: “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.”

THE APPEARANCE OF JESUS (Revelation 19:11-13,16)
His Nature (11-12)

He is a little different than He was when He come the first time.
He is full of Glory (v.12)
He has many crowns on His head.
He was given a crown that were given to the victors “Stephanos”
It was the olive leaf crowns that were given to the victors in the great Olympic Games.
On the other hand, Jesus Christ wears many crowns
The word “diadems” refers to crowns of royalty
While the Antichrist was given a crown, Jesus Christ wears them, and they are many crowns!!
Jesus Christ is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords whether you acknowledge Him or not.
People may pretend that Jesus Christ is not their Lord, but one day, His sovereignty will be revealed with great power and glory.
His eyes were as a flame of fire- this speaks of His Holiness!!
When Christ returns, He will not come like a meek and lowly Lamb, but He comes as Lion of the tribe of Judah.
He returns not in humility, but in power authority and glory!
The first time, He come as a servant. (Philippians 2:5-8)
He was despised and rejected of men, He was a man of sorrows, He came as a Lamb to be slain (Isaiah 53:2-3).
When He came the first time, only a few people knew. Joseph, Mary, and the poor shepherds knew Him.
Those who hated Him without cause saw to it that He was put to death!!
Now Christ comes not as servant but King and Judge of Judges, Judge of the living and the dead.
What a glorious savior we serve this day. May the Lord help us to see Him as He is and Worship Him.
There are many today who needs to receive Jesus Christ as their Savior.
There is coming a day when you will be forced to receive Him and acknowledge Him as King.
Today is a day of mercy, that will be a day of wrath!!
Today like a beggar cry for mercy, “Lord have mercy on me a sinner.”
God will pursue peace, but if man will not repent there will come a day when man must do battle with the Lord,
God will not allow unrighteousness and sin to go unchallenged forever. He will make war with the enemies of God.

HIS NAMES (Rev. 19:12-13, 16)

When the Lord Jesus returns, three new names are attached to Him. These Names reveal His character and person:-

The Name of Mystery (vs 12)

The Bible tells us that Jesus has a name written on Him that man can’t know.
My friends, the time to know Jesus Christ is now! He is revealing Himself as a savior now.
A day is coming when He comes as Judge you will not be allowed to know Him!
Do not wait until He comes as judge, please call the savior of your soul, today!!

The Name of Ministry : (vs 13)

He is called the word of God. A name of ministry
Jesus Christ Minsters through His word.
In Genesis 1 He spoke and the universe was created.
When He came to this Earth the word became flesh (John 1:1-14)
When he returns in power and glory, He will speak the word and all His enemies will be slain before Him in that day!!

The Name of Majesty (vs 16)

When Jesus returns, He will have a name written on the thigh of His garment “King of Kings”

He is faithful and True (v.11)

To many people it looks as if Jesus would never return, but He is “Faithful and true”
He is faithful and true, so we can depend on Him to keep His word forever.
What He says He will do. He will do it.
Many political leaders designs political manifestos full of lies and false promises.
But Jesus Christ is faithful and true to keep His promises.
He promised never to leave me; He has never left me, others promised me but they left.
He promised to save, to keep and to satisfy
He promised to provide, to fight my battles He has done it. He is faithful and true.
My dear friend, just keep trusting Him, He is faithful and true!

He fights in Righteousness (v. 11)

Throughout History, there have been wars; many of these wars have been fought for foolish reasons.
All wars are started through sin, the fact is that men and women want to be God.
They want to be in charge of this world, when they do this, other men stand up and say “No, you will not reign over us!” And a war is the result.
Jesus Christ wages a righteous war. His cause is just cause: He fights the battle of the Lord.
Although he is a man of peace, Jesus is also a man of war. (Exodus 15:3) “The Lord is a man of war.”
Instead of vast arsenals of weaponry, all Jesus Christ needs is a word and His enemies are forever defeated (Isaiah 11:4). “But with righteousness shall He judge the poor and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth and He shall smite the earth with the rod of His mouth, and with breath of His lips shall He slay the wicked”.
Jesus shall rule (Shepherd) with a rod of iron.
After His enemies are defeated, the Lord Jesus will establish His Kingdom and will lead the peoples of the earth like a shepherd.
He will lead them beside all the still waters and He will cause them to lie down in the green pastures. He will be shepherd to all people.
Jesus will tread the winepress of the fierce wrath of God.
Like a man crushing grapes under his feet to release all their juices, Christ will crush all the life out of every opponent of God. it will be a terrible day.

HIS COMING WILL BE VIOLENT ( REVELATION 19:17-18)
The fowls are to be called ( vs 17)

The slaughter will be so great, that God calls for the fowls of the air to come and help dispose of the bodies of the slain (Revelation 14:20)

The flesh is to be Consumed (vs 18)

All levels of the army of Gods enemies are on the menu for this great supper, kings, generals, captains majors and ordinary solders.
In life they were separated by class and by rank.
Here we see great and small, free and slave reduced to nothing more than food for scavengers.
His people refused to acknowledge Him as their King (John 1:11-12). John 19:15)
Pilate the Roman Governor, placed a crown mocking title over His head as He hang on the cross (Mathew 27:37) “This is Jesus King of the Jews.”
Jesus Christ is far more than the King of the Jews is. He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords!
Have you made that admission yet? Have you bowed before Jesus as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Have you received Him with your heart?
What you do about Jesus Christ will determine what He will do with you. The King is coming.

The armies of Jesus (vs 14)

Every King has an army and the Lord Jesus Christ is no exception.
He has an army there in large and of special nature.
His army is dressed in fine linen, white and clean
There is no armor and no weapons with this army because the king Jesus Christ does all the fighting Himself!!

The Armament of Jesus Christ (vs 15)

When Jesus Christ Returns to fight this battle, He does not bring Guns, tanks, artillery or nuclear weapons, He merely brings His Word!!
His word is “Sharper than any two edged sword” (Heb 4:12)
In life, they were different, some gave orders, and others carried them out, but in death, they are all equal.
Death is the great equalizer of all people! No matter who you are, when death come for you, everything you had and everything you were will be no more!
Your money your position, your power, your intellect, your everything will be gone!
If you leave this world without Christ as your savior, then you have nothing to look forward to except eternal death in the lake of fire.
No one will make it without Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
HIS COMING WILL BE VICTORIOUS (REVALATION 19:19-21)

Earth armies will be drawn to Armageddon(vs 19)

All the armies of the world that are enemies of God today will join together to fight against Lord Jesus when He returns.
Armies that were fighting with each other just before Jesus comes back will join forces in an effort to defeat the Lord and His army.
God will lure them to His killing field called Armageddon. They will fail miserably!

Earths armies will be destroyed at Armageddon (vs 20-21)
The devilish duo are destroyed (vs 20)

Throughout the great tribulation, the Anti-Christ and false prophet had led people to believe that they were supermen.
The Anti-Christ and the false prophet has been worshiped as God.
When Christ returns the world will discover that they were mere men, they will be caught and thrown in the lake of fire alive

The doomed multitudes are destroyed (vs 21)

Their armies will be destroyed in an instant of time! Their blood will saturate the earth to over flowing levels.
Birds of the air will devour their dead bodies.
Without firing a single shot, Jesus will prove Himself greater than any opposing army and all military formation of the entire earth.

CONCLUSIONS;

If you are saved, you should not worry about this event. You will only be a witness of the victory of the Lord from the air!
As we ride on white horses behind Him, we will see our beloved bridegroom destroy all our enemies in an instance of time! Amen.
If you are not saved, you can see your portion in these events, what a loss, what a terrible time it will be for you my friend!
But, you can be saved today, if you will come to Jesus Christ, accept Him into your heart and life.
The King is coming, visibly, violently and victoriously.
What will you do with the man of Galilee, Please acknowledge Him now.
