_______________________
Revelation 1:5 (NIV)
and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by His blood,
As the prince over the kings of the earth, Jesus rules over all kings. He is the first begotten of the death; He is the Son of God, and have dominion over everything in the earth.
The kings of the earth have their boundaries, but Jesus Christ is not limited. The kings of the earth have a time period within which they can reign, Jesus reigns forever.
When Jesus was given all powers, He made us kings and priests. He has given us an example of how kings must behave. On that note, we cannot be puffed up, but rule with humility and love unfeigned.
Stay blessed. Shalom.
Let's Pray:
King of kings, we bless You. Lord, as the Prince of the kings of the earth, Jesus Christ, has given us an example, so help us to rule with humility and love. Amen.
