"And I saw heaven opened; and behold a white horse, and He who sat upon it is called Faithful and True; and in righteousness He judges and wages war."
Most people do not "identify" with "this" Jesus. They prefer, "Gentile Jesus, meek and mild." He is that, but He is also our text.
May the Holy Spirit burn/write in our hearts that our King and Savior Jesus Christ is, "....Faithful and True." He is always, "....Faithful and True," even when we go through some of life's events which may seem to contradict this. But remember what the Bible says, "While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are unseen."
Whatever life's journey has you in today, keep confessing that Jesus Christ is, "....Faithful and True," and yes, "in righteousness He judges and wages war." This latter part of the text just may be equal in liberation and blessing to us as the former. For me, there is no "may be."
Father, in Jesus' Name, I thank You that You are, "Faithful and True," and, "....in righteousness [You] judge and wage[] war." Amen.
When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
