Faces of Jesus
Reading: Ezekiel 1:4-10
Key Verse: “Each of the four had a face like a man, a lion, an ox and an eagle”
As we view a diamond it has many faces through which light shines and sparkles. Each face contributes to the whole diamond and enhances our appreciation of it as we behold its beauty. As we view the gospels there are four different facets of Jesus revealed: Matthew often speaks of Him as a king - the lion ruling in His domain. In Mark’s gospel he is portrayed as a servant – the ox which serves mankind by carrying burdens and preparing hard ground for fruitfulness. Luke shows Jesus very much as a human being – the Son of Man experiencing the vicissitudes of life just like us. Finally, John proclaims Him as divine from above – the eagle soaring in the heavens. These are four different views of one good news. In Ezekiel and Revelation 4:7 it appears celestial beings themselves display and proclaim these four different facets of the wonder of Jesus.
In order to fully understand and appreciate who Jesus is and what He does we need to explore these and other aspects of His character and ministry as revealed in the Bible. He is far more beautiful, glorious and wonderful than we could ever think or imagine!
Prayer: Jesus please reveal more of Yourself to me
