Cry Out: Jesus Is Central
Whatever is at the center of your life will determine what your life is about. It is easy to let a world of distraction, comfort, relationship goals, career success, or even our current circumstances determine our mind's attention and our heart’s affection. As followers of Jesus, we can orient our lives around Him and let Him order our steps in a life of worship.
As the book of Revelation unfolds, John tries his best to describe what he sees in heaven. He sees Jesus: with hair white like wool, eyes like a blazing fire, a voice like the rushing waters, and a sharp, double-edged sword coming out of his mouth, with a face shining like the sun in all of its brilliance. He is the Lion of Judah and the Lamb who was slain—standing at the center of the throne—the center of heaven—the center of eternity.
Jesus is the only one worthy to take the scroll, which is representative of the salvation plan of God for all people, and open it. Because of His life, death, and resurrection, Jesus is worthy. He is triumphant over sin, death, and the grave. With His own blood, He “purchased for God people from every tribe and language and people and nation,” and because of that, “every knee will bow and tongue confess that Jesus is Lord to the glory of God the Father” (Rev 5: 9, Phil 2:9).
There is worship happening in heaven right now! The voice of many angels numbering thousands upon thousands crying out, “worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!” (Rev 5:12) Jesus is at the center of heaven and we have the opportunity to join with all of heaven those who cry out day and night, “holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.” (Rev 4:8)
When we see Jesus for who He is, we can’t help but reorient what’s at the center of our lives. He alone is worthy of that place.
Prayer: Jesus, you’re at the center of heaven, but are you at the center of my life? Do I orient my days around you or expect the other way around? Help me look up and see you, high and lifted up, the Lamb who was slain, for all mankind, yes, but also for me, and let it lead me to worship you with my words and my life. Amen.
