King of Kings

THE SUPREME KING OF KINGS

Scripture:
1 John 4:10, Revelation 1:18, 5:12

"And God raised Him up again, putting an end to the agony of death, since it was impossible for Him to be held in its power."

Praise be to the God of Israel, O King of the Universe.  How I love thee today, because You first loved me and sent Your Son to atone for my sins.  I stand amazed before You today that Yeshua, who by nature had always been You incarnate.  I thank Him today that He did not cling to His rights as Your equal...that He laid aside all His privileges, to be born as a human being...that He totally humbled Himself, submitting to the death of a common criminal, enduring infinite humiliation and pain...that on the cross You laid on Him the compressed weight of all my sin and guilt and shame, of all my griefs and sorrows, and He became sin for me, dying the death I deserved.

And how much I praise You that it was impossible for death to hold Him in its power...that You raised Him from the dead to be my Savior, to make me righteous in Your sight...that You highly exalted Him, giving Him a position infinitely superior to any conceivable command, authority, power, or control, both natural and supernatural.  Thank You that He is the Great High Priest...that He is able to save me completely, for He lives forever and prays for me, and for all of us who have come to You through Him.  I glorify You, my Father, with gratefulness and joy.

I bow today at your feet, the one who was dead, and is now alive forever and ever.  I exalt Him, I yield myself to Him, for He is worthy of the total response of my entire being: "Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing."

SEED WORD:
Let us always remember and be thankful and praise Him, the one that raised us up into a new man with Him, at the cross of calvary.  Today, my life is not my own, but is the one who lives in me, and daily I have to pick up my cross, shake off the rubbish from the world and say Lord, here am I, lead me today into more and more into Your will, not mine.
