Global Disciples Benefit Auction | Live and Online Auctions on HiBid.com

Liz Hess, Framed original acrylic on canvas 44" x 56" December 2017 “The King Has Come” This painting is the second original work commissioned by Global Disciples, following the 2016 work, “King of Kings” which generated enthusiastic interest from around the world. It also provided Liz Hess with an invitation to visit and paint in Israel. Twice during her recent trip to Israel, three different people stopped Liz to pray for her, telling her the same message, that God would be "downloading" a specific image which she was to paint when she returned home. While in Jerusalem, this image appeared before Liz three different times within a 15 hour period, once during the evening, once in the middle of the night when she woke up with a start, seeing the image before her, and once the next day while sitting at a cafe drinking coffee. Back at home, Liz locked herself away in her studio to paint, and while applying the golds on the crown the title suddenly appeared as clearly as the image had in Jerusalem, "The King Has Come". This new work is joyous outpouring of worship and praise to Jesus, the King, as it portrays people of many nations and the heavenly hosts, rejoicing and celebrating together around a traditional Jewishhuppah, in the presence of the Lion of Judah, and the Lamb of God.
