the Rider

The Rider in Revelation 19 whose garments are "dipped in blood" (Revelation 19:13) is one of the most graphic visuals in all of scripture. This is the same Rider as the One Isaiah wrote about (chapter 63), whose exploits are recorded in Revelation 14. When He came the first time he was soaked in His own blood (Isaiah 52:13), but when He returns He'll be soaked in the blood of His enemies. This is none other than The Lord Jesus Christ, our Savior, Redeemer, and soon coming King...

O Lord I anxiously await the day that You will come and "make all things new," and will destroy sin and death for all eternity. Come, Lord Jesus...
