The Father’s Wealth

BIBLE MEDITATION:
“And I will give him the morning star.” Revelation 2:28

DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
I remember reading a story about a wealthy Roman who had a lavish estate, and he had a servant named Marcellus. When the wealthy Roman died, he wrote his will and left everything to his slave. The wealthy Roman also had a son, and for some reason he had had a disagreement with him, so in his will he said, “I have left my entire estate to my slave Marcellus. To my son, I leave him only one thing. He can choose any one thing from my estate he wants, but that’s all.” The son said, “Very well, I choose Marcellus.”

Here at the end of Revelation 2, our Lord gives another sweet promise to those who overcome (v. 28): “And I will give him,” that is, the overcomer, “the morning star.” Jesus is that morning star. What He’s saying is, “You’ll receive the greatest reward of all, you’ll receive Me, the morning star.” Do you know what the morning star is? It’s the star that appears just after the darkest hour of the night.

ACTION POINT:
It’s getting very dark. Praise God, it’s getting gloriously dark, and before long that morning star is going to appear. Jesus is the morning star. If you choose Jesus, with Jesus comes all the Father’s wealth.
