"Is Jesus Your King?"
Message
summary:
Today let us
proclaim, "Jesus
Is My King".
Listen to our message on your audio player.
"Now
to the King
eternal,
immortal,
invisible, the
only God, be
honor and
glory forever
and ever.
Amen" (1
Timothy 1:17).
Yesterday
I was walking
through a
plant that
makes displays
for retail
point of sale.
I was visiting
with the
employees as
part of our
chaplain
ministry. At
this plant
several of the
employees do
no not speak
English so
communication
can be a
challenge. But
a man's
baseball cap
caught my
attention.
It
said, "Jesus
Is King" so I
asked him, "Is
Jesus your
King?" However
I don't think
he actually
understood
what I was
asking so I
will expand
that question
to all who may
be reading
this: "Is
Jesus your
King?"
That
is a vital
question we
all must deal
with.
Regardless of
how we
personally
answer Jesus is
the King. One
day "every
knee shall bow
and every
tongue will
confess that
Jesus Christ
is Lord".
To
say “Jesus is
King” is to
affirm that
truth exists,
that goodness
is real, and
that hope is
not lost. It
is to
acknowledge
that no matter
how turbulent
the culture
becomes, the
throne of
heaven remains
unmoved.
Our
daily text
seems to be a
spontaneous
benediction by
Paul in his
letter to
Timothy. In
the previous
verses he had
extolled God
for the
wonderful
truth "that
Christ Jesus
came into the
world to save
sinners"
(1 Timothy
1:15).
C.H.
Spurgeon
wrote, "Paul
could not help
this outburst
of praise. He
must put in a
doxology. When
he remembered
his own
conversion and
pardon, and
his being
entrusted with
the ministry
of the gospel,
he was obliged
to put down
his pen, and
lift up his
voice in
grateful
thanksgiving
to God. So may
it be with us,
as we remember
what great
things the
Lord hath done
for us!"
These
words by
blogger
Michael
Schmidt really
bless me today
with an
important
reminder:
"Jesus Christ is not an elected official whose term will expire. He is not a monarch ruling by coercion or fear. He is the King eternal, immortal, and invisible — the Creator of all things, the Sustainer of life, the Redeemer of souls.
His kingdom is not built on the shifting sands of politics but on the unshakable foundation of truth and grace. His authority brings order where there is chaos, peace where there is conflict, and hope where there is despair.
Every attempt to dethrone Him ultimately fails, because His reign is not dependent on human approval — it is established forever by divine decree."
Today
let us
proclaim with
our words and
by our lives,
"Jesus Is
My King".
Be
encouraged
today, Hebrews
3:13.

Daily
prayer:
Father, You
were King of
the heavens
before there
was time and
You will be
King for all
eternity. What
joy and
assurance that
truth brings
to our spirit
today in light
of the
increasing
evil of our
day. No matter
what comes on
this side of
eternity we
want to be
fervent in our
witness,
prayerful in
our daily
walk, faithful
in our service
to You, our
Father, and to
those
entrusted to
our care. For
one blessed
day every knee
shall bow and
every tongue
will confess
that You are
Lord. We make
that
confession
here and now
and for all
eternity. In
the blessed
name of Jesus
we pray. Amen.

King of my life I crown Thee now,
Thine shall the glory be;
lest I forget Thy thorn-crowned brow,
lead me to Calvary.
