The Names of Jesus--Day 6


Good Morning!

Our name for Jesus for today: The Bright and Morning Star

"I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am . . . the Bright and Morning Star." Revelation 22:16, NKJV

Morning star. This is the star that always shines brightest in the darkness that is immediately before dawn. It is in it's own way announcing the beginning of the new day--even though the darkness is still over the earth. It is filled with hope, and promise.

Here, Jesus is calling Himself the Bright and Morning Star. Is this not a fitting name for our King? Does He not shine brightest in the dark of this sinful world? Dispelling the darkness. Promising that the dawn is coming.

"He (Christ), is the bright and morning star, shining amid the moral darkness of this sinful, corrupt world. He is the light of the world, and all who give their hearts to Him will find peace, rest, and joy." Mind, Character, and Personality, vol. 2, p. 804 by Ellen White
