"The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants--things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John" (Revelation 1:1 NKJV).

Since this book is the Revelation of Jesus Christ, it seems clear that it is revealing all things about Jesus that will help “His servants”. We need to keep these things before us so that they will enhance and strengthen our faith and receive the intended “blessing’ (Revelation 1:3) we should get from reading and keeping these things near us at all times. The book calls for us to know Jesus in all these ways.
