The ‘Amen’ is a name given to describe Jesus by Himself in Revelation 3. Amen means ‘yes’ or ‘agreement to’ or ‘let it be so’ (2 Corinthians 1)

“Write this letter to the angel of the church in Laodicea. This is the message from the one who is the Amen—the faithful and true witness, the beginning of God’s new creation:

“I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one or the other! But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth! You say, ‘I am rich. I have everything I want. I don’t need a thing!’ And you don’t realize that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked. So I advise you to buy gold from me—gold that has been purified by fire. Then you will be rich. Also buy white garments from me so you will not be shamed by your nakedness, and ointment for your eyes so you will be able to see. I correct and discipline everyone I love. So be diligent and turn from your indifference.

“Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends. Those who are victorious will sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat with my Father on his throne.

“Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches.”

Revelation 3:14-22

In Revelation 3, we see that the Amen, Jesus Christ, is a faithful and true witness. As the Amen, Jesus is the beginning and the ruler of God’s new creation. Through Jesus, we see fulfillment of Scripture prophecy, promises, and the Law.

When we call Jesus the Amen, we acknowledge what is written in 2 Corinthians 1:

Consider God as The Amen.

Take some time to meditate on this aspect of God and worship Him for being The Amen. 

Write down what it means for God to be The Amen in your life.
