Praise the Lord Beloved. What a beautiful Sunday. I thank God for allowing us another opportunity to collectively serve Him. 😀
This Morning’s Focal Bible Scripture is Romans 14:7-12.
You’ll find in the New Testament the word Lord is the most recurrently used designation for Jesus Christ. Although we seldom use this term in our daily lives, we’re all quite accustomed with another word: “boss or supervisor”. That is basically what Lord means—one possessing authority, power, and control. The Word of God describes Jesus as the head of the church, the ruler over all creation, and the Lord of lords and King of kings. *(1)
The territory of Christ’s authority covers everything that happens in heaven and on the earth. NO ONE—not even those who reject the reality that He exist can be free of His rule. NO ONE is outside His range of authority. Although Satan tries to give us a run for our money by making every effort to convince us that liberty is found in doing what we want, but true freedom is attained and developed only through submission to Christ’s loving lordship.
Beloved, even death’s proclamation won’t exempt anyone from the authority of God’s Son. He’s Lord of both the living and the dead. Everyone must decide to either yield or rebel against Him, but the only opportunity they have to make this choice is while they’re still living. After death, they’ll accept Christ’s lordship through accountability to Him.
Beloved, if we haven’t conformed to Jesus in life, we’ll be forced to kneel in the judgment.
Amen? – Aaamen. 😀
Beloved, life is very short. It comes and goes like an unannounced gust of wind. None of us know the hour or day when that gust of wind will be permitted to enter our room and blow out our earthly light. So today, reach out and touch someone and tell them you love them, BECAUSE TELLING THEM LATER JUST MIGHT BE – TOO LATE.
I LOVE YOU ALL!!! – Have a very blessed Sunday Everyone. 😀
