What does this mean? A Lord is someone who is in charge; who runs things; who has authority. In past days someone might be called the lord in his business if he is in charge. So to be called the “Lord of lords” means you are in supreme authority; over all other lords; the master of everything.
Jesus Christ is truly the Lord of lords. He is our master. He has all wisdom and all authority. The Bible tells the story of a man who went on a long journey and when he was away he entrusted his estate to others. He was gone, but he was still the master of the estate. When he returned, he once again took charge, because the estate was still his even when he was gone.
So, too, Jesus Christ has gone into heaven; but He is still Lord. One day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. The wonderful news is that our Lord Jesus Christ not only is all powerful, He is also loving and kind and good and forgiving. So while we are here on this earth we have the privilege of bowing the knee to our Lord Jesus. We should serve Him and obey Christ and make Him the Lord of every area of our lives.
So, this week, let us pray and
- Ask Jesus Christ to be the Lord of every part of our lives
- Ask God to help all your family and loved ones accept Jesus Christ as Savior
- Ask Christ to establish His Lordship over the entire earth -- “May Your Kingdom come”
- Ask God to protect and bless the donors and staff and volunteers of Global Media Outreach
THANK YOU so much for your prayers. Let us all join together in service to our wonderful Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He alone is worthy to receive all praise and all honor and all glory. Some day all of us who have accepted Him here on earth will have the joyful privilege of worshipping Him together in heaven.
May God bless you,
