“A Name written that
no one knew except
Himself”
By Chris Pretorius
Almighty Warrior:
Psalm 45:3-5 NIV
3 Gird your sword on your side, you mighty one; clothe yourself with splendour and majesty.4 In
your majesty ride forth victoriously in the cause of
truth, humility and justice; let your right hand
achieve awesome deeds. 5 Let your sharp arrows
pierce the hearts of the king’s enemies; let the nations fall beneath your feet.
Almighty Warrior:
Eph 6:12 : For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but
against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers
of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Eph 6:17: Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
Heb 4:12: For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper
than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing
soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

Rider on a white horse: Revelation 19:11 NKJ
Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and true, and in righteousness He judges and
makes war. 12 His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were
many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except
Himself. 13 He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is
called The Word of God. 14 And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine
linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses. 15 Now out of His
mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He
Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of
the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16 And He has on His robe and
on His thigh a name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
Rider on a white horse:
John 1:1 NKJ

with God, and the Word was God.
Rider on a white horse: Revelation 19:11 NKJ
Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and true, and in righteousness He judges and
makes war. 12 His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were
many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except
Himself. 13 He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is
called The Word of God. 14 And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine

“Charles Spurgeon”
“The man of love, rejected and despised. Fiercer
than a lion on His prey is love when once
provoked. When love turns to jealousy, its fires are
like coals of juniper that have a violent flame.
Beware lest you continue to despise. Submit to this
word of His mouth lest you be smitten by His hand.
Be wise when once His hand begins to smite you
lest you have to feel His foot, for it is all over then.
“Charles Spurgeon”
May you and I each have a white horse with which to
follow Christ. But we never shall unless we are His followers
here. We must put on the snow white garments now. The
righteousness of Christ will be given to anyone who
accepts Him and believes in Him. And when your snow
white garments are once on, he will give you the horse of
His sacred strength, and you, even you following in the
track of your Gallant Leaders, shall ride on shouting.
Victory, victory, victory, through the blood of the lamb.”
