Fear Not

Eagle's Landing Sermons

No matter what is behind you or what is before you, Jesus is still reigning over you.

1. Jesus’ presence should comfort you (vs. 9–13)

“I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and the kingdom and the patient endurance that are in Jesus, was on the island called Patmos on account of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus. I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet saying, “Write what you see in a book and send it to the seven churches, to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamum and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea.” Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking to me, and on turning I saw seven golden lampstands, and in the midst of the lampstands one like a son of man, clothed with a long robe and with a golden sash around his chest.”
— Revelation 1:9–13
2. Jesus’ power should revitalize you (vs. 14–15)

“The hairs of his head were white, like white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire, his feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the roar of many waters. In his right hand he held seven stars, from his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword, and his face was like the sun shining in full strength.”
— Revelation 1:14–15
3. Jesus’ glory should humble you (v. 17)

“When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead.”
— Revelation 1:17

4. Jesus’ authority should strengthen you (vs. 17-18)

“But he laid his right hand on me, saying, ‘Fear not, I am the first and the last, and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades.’ ”
— Revelation 1:18
