When Will Jesus Be Crowned and by Who?
1) Direct Answer
Jesus will be crowned after the catching away of the saints, at the marriage supper in glory, and He will be crowned by His redeemed Bride. Then He will return with His saints and take the throne of David in the Millennium, where His Kingship is openly manifested before the nations.
2) Scriptural Explanation
- The marriage of the Lamb comes first: “Let us be glad and rejoice… for the marriage of the Lamb is come” (Revelation 19:7-9). That is where the Bride is with Him in heaven. Revelation 7:9-17 shows that redeemed multitude before the throne, and Revelation 20:4 shows the overcomers who reign with Him—this is the Bride company present to honor Him.
- The redeemed have crowns and worship before Him: the elders “cast their crowns before the throne” (Revelation 4:10-11), showing the saints yielding all honor to the One on the throne and to the Lamb (Revelation 5:8-14). That is the Bride’s act of coronation—giving Him the diadem of her love, victory, and authority.
- Then He appears as the crowned King: when He comes back, “on His head were many crowns… KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS” (Revelation 19:11-16). What was recognized in heaven is then displayed to the world.
- He takes the earthly throne: “The Lord God shall give unto Him the throne of His father David: and He shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever” (Luke 1:32-33). “The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of His Christ” (Revelation 11:15).
- God has already exalted Him: “God also hath highly exalted Him… that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow” (Philippians 2:9-11). The Father has placed all things under Him (1 Corinthians 15:25-28), and the Bride acknowledges and crowns what God has decreed.
3) Simple Clarifying Logic
- Now notice, He is already Lord by divine decree. But at the marriage supper the Bride—redeemed from all ages—crowns Him in worship and surrender. That is heaven’s coronation.
- Then He returns with many crowns to sit on David’s throne in the Millennium. That is earth’s recognition of the same Kingship.
4) Reinforcing Statement
You see, it’s not three Gods. The one God was manifested in Jesus Christ, and soon the Bride will crown Him King of kings and Lord of lords. Be ready for that hour.

What if the President would say, "I'll make ... I've come to take you (and I have the authority to do so) and make you the President of the United States."? You'd have to give it up sometime. What if the Queen wanted to make you Queen of England, and you wear the crown. We'd have to give it up. But Jesus gives us a crown of life that we never give up, incorruptible crown of his glory. We don't have to give it up. He gives it to us. It's a blessing. It's the Holy Spirit that He wants to crown our life with. How coul...
The great warrior David

Notice, David was called by election. He was elected, called, anointed, and placed, see. Elected by God, called from sheepherding to be the king, anointed and positionally placed. Look. Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph; Abraham--election, Isaac--justification, and Jacob--grace, and Joseph--perfection. Nothing against Joseph. All right, there you are, called. Are you a David? Called. Elected first by God. How many Christians here? raise up your hand. You're not a Christian by your desire; you're a Christian by God's de...

There He'll sit upon the throne of David. Is that right? And shall rule all nations with a rod of iron. There'll be a tree on each side, and each nation that comes in, this healing will be for---these leaves will be for the healing of the nations. The kings shall bring their honor into it. There'll be nothing that can defile or anything ever enter in. And Mount Zion will have a light on her all day and night, and the redeemed shall walk in that light! Oh, hallelujah!

So we see Him in the circle bow of green, amber color. This greenish, what does green represent? Life. Green is evergreen, always stays green; is life. What does it mean? That God has promised, as He took an oath back there in Genesis, that He would put the rainbow in the sky; that He would no more destroy this world by water. He also takes His oath and swears by Himself that all the seed of Abraham He'll raise up. And this world will stand all of its shaking judgements. The judgements we're going through (on the f...
