THE SUPER KING - 2

Saturday, March 20, 2010

MEMORIZE: “Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords” (1 Tim 6:15)

READ: 1 Timothy 6:13-16

Hebrews 1:2 says Jesus is the Heir of All Things. If you are His own, He can recover your lost inheritance. He may choose to retrieve your loss from those who originally stole it, or through an entirely different source. As you hand over the case to Him, let Him decide how to go about it. Besides, He can promote you to become a co-heir with Him. Praise God! All the assets, benefits and opportunities your oppressors have stolen from you shall be restored by fire this season in Jesus’ Name.
Moreover, Jesus Christ is linked with royalty. What else would you have expected from the Creator and Owner of the Heavens and earth? (Psalm 24:1). His link with royalty is indicated by His titles Prince of kings (Rev. 1:5), Potentate, King of kings and Lord of lords (1 Tim. 6:15) and King of Glory (Psalm 24:7-10). No wonder the wise men who were dreaded by earthly kings fell at His feet and worshipped even when He was a two-year-old child (Matt 2:1-11).

If you want power, He has it. If you want honor, He has it. He installs and dethrones the kings of the earth (Dan. 4:24-25). Infact, no king, president, or head gets to any position of authority without His approval. Only foolish kings will refuse to bow to Him now, because they will be compelled to bow to Him after death. Any earthly king, president or governor who bows to this Super King reinforces his authority over his domain and maintains relevance.

Everyone who receives Him into their hearts becomes a king. This is unbeatable! How many presidents have the power to appoint other presidents? How many local kings have the power to appoint kings like themselves? At best, some can appoint a few chiefs or leaders but Jesus turns everyone who believes in Him into kings. And apart from reigning over situations and circumstances, during the Millennial Reign, they will reign with Him for 1000 years during the most peaceful era and thereafter reign eternally with Him! If you are not born again, give your life to Jesus Christ now and you will become one of His kings. Demons and Satan will bow to you. You will control anything He controls as He empowers you to do so. How are you worshipping this Super King?


ACTION POINT:
When Jesus appoints you a king, it is forever but when any man appoints you king, at best it is for a lifetime.
