This sermon shows how Jesus' words to John in Revelation 1:17-20 bring profound comfort in times of fear. When John falls at Christ's feet "as though dead," Jesus responds with tender reassurance, placing His right hand on John and saying "Do not be afraid." Christ then declares His eternal nature as the First and Last, the Living One who holds authority over death and Hades. The description of Jesus holding the seven stars (representing church leaders) in His right hand while walking among the seven lampstands (representing churches) paints a picture of His intimate involvement with and protection of His people. The passage reminds believers that no matter how overwhelming their circumstances may seem, they serve a risen Savior who has conquered death and remains personally engaged in the life of His church. His words to John echo through the ages, offering the same comfort and courage to modern believers facing their own trials and fears.
