The rainbow is a creature of light, established by God in the heavens as a sign of his mercy and his promise never again to flood the entire earth (Gen 9:13-17). The colors, the range of brightness and hue, the blurring and fading, and twinkling of the rainbow is a part of the glory of God. A rainbow radiates from the sacred fane of the One seated on the Throne of Heaven (Ezek. 1:27; Rev. 4:3). There is a rainbow of mercy and loving kindness which diadems the Living Lord. It is both mercy and beauty that draw us to Him. The very act of hanging-up his bow of war emboldens us to draw near with faith (Heb. 4:16).
