As a collective & artists , we are always amazed at what God does with obedient hearts. We are all called to be His hands & feet!
Riaan, thank you for having an obedient heart & loving people!
This painting, titled “David,” is part of a powerful series called The Four Living Creatures.
It portrays a young David sent to the nations, gently holding a lamb — a striking symbol of Jesus, the Lamb of God, who carried our sin and suffering. The crown of thorns resting on the lamb’s head reflects Christ’s sacrifice, the price He paid to redeem humanity.
David is clothed in blue, representing the Holy Spirit, standing as a messenger of God’s truth — carrying the light of salvation to Africa and beyond.
The layers of symbolism are incredible.
From the nations represented in the background to the prophetic reminder of Jesus as the Root and Offspring of David.
This piece speaks of calling, anointing, and the spreading of the Gospel to the ends of the earth.
It is more than art.
It is a message.
A commissioning.
A reminder of Jesus’ victory and His call on all of us to carry His love, grace, and truth to the nations.
