OUR KING

“And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.  And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.  And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen; Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.”
Luke 19:35-38 KJV

Someone said “he was a great king”.  There is only one great king and His Name is Jesus!  He is the KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.  One glorious and happy day Jesus our King is coming back for us and we will see Him face to face.  How I long for that day.

Jim Hill wrote the beautiful and inspiring hymn “What A Day That Will Be”.  I love these words.  “There’ll be no sorrow there, no more burdens to bear, No more sickness, no pain, no more parting over there; and forever I will be with the One who died for me, What a day, glorious day that will be.”

Jesus rose from the dead but have we allowed Him to be our King?  Does He have first place in our heart and in our life?  There is nothing or nobody that should be more important to us than Jesus, our victorious King.  If He doesn’t have first place in our heart and life, we are hurting Him and breaking His heart.

Heavenly Father, I pray for every person who hasn’t made Jesus their King.  May today be the day they invite Jesus into their heart.  I invited Jesus into my heart on August 14, 1980.  Thank You for loving me, for adopting me and for being a protective and caring Father.  I love You.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
