“Your God Is King!” by Melanie Rigney (@melanierigney)


How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings glad tidings, announcing peace, bearing good news, announcing salvation and saying to Zion, “Your God is King!” (Isaiah 52:7)

All the ends of the earth have seen the saving power of God. (Psalm 98:3c)

For to which of the angels did God ever say: You are my son; this day I have begotten you? Or again: I will be a father to him, and he shall be a son to me? And again, when he leads the firstborn into the world, he says: Let all the angels of God worship him. (Hebrews 1:5-6)

And the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us, and we saw his glory, the glory as of the Father’s only Son, full of grace and truth. (John 1:14)

Piety
Hosanna in the highest! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!

Study
It’s true! Your God is King!

He is King as a helpless newborn, lying in a crude box, dependent on his parents for sustenance and safety.

He is King when he is presented in the temple forty days later.

He is King a few years later when He lingers in the template, worrying his parents for three days.

He is King during the years we don’t know about when He bursts onto the scene in public ministry when He challenges those in authority who don’t know the truth when they see or hear it when they kill Him, and when He returns from the dead.

Your God is King!

Celebrate that today! See Him in everyone you see, whether they believe or not. Find Him in every conversation for He is king! Oh, come let us adore Him!

Action
Reveal in the gift of being part of the King’s family.
