'For the Lord is our Judge, the Lord is our Lawgiver, the Lord is our King; he will save'
(Isaiah 33: 22).
Oh, how wonderful! O, how marvellous is our God to us. He loves us so much that he came down in the person of His Son, Jesus Christ to rescue us from sin and death. Jesus the incarnate God, endured the shame and the cross to restore us to the image of God, that was marred at the entrance of sin, and to reconcile us back to our heavenly Father. God had committed all judgment to Christ our Lord, so he could judge his people; to right our wrongs, and avenge our injuries inflected by our enemies. He is indeed our Lawgiver, He not only gave us his laws in which we should abide, but he wrote them on our hearts and put his Spirit within us, to enable us to keep them. He is also our Sovereign King, ruler of the world. He is our Creator and therefore, has the authority and right to govern us. He made us and not we ourselves. As His created beings, we rebelled against his kingly authority, yet it is He alone who can save us. He came in the likeness of sinful flesh, so he could condemn sin in the flesh; by the shedding of his precious blood, in order to save us. Yet even in this world, men still despise and reject him, failing to acknowledge him as their Creator and Saviour. Christ our Lawgiver, became our Saviour! He was wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement of our peace is upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. (Isaiah 53:5). Today, Jesus is pleading to the Father, with His blood on our behalf. Will you not surrender all to Him, today? I give you Jesus, my Lord, my Judge, my Lawgiver and my King. His kingdom will never end, and He is willing to save you to the utmost. Take him at his Word. He is trustworthy, fair and just. We are bless to have him as our judge, because he knows us better than anyone else. Let's give of ourselves to Jesus.
Have a wonderful day🌹🌹
'But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you' (Matthew 6:33). The Lord is our Provider and knows all that we are in need of before we even ask. We do not need to worry or fret ourselves about what we shall eat or drink. Our Father in heaven will take care of these things we need. We are told by Jesus, 'To seek first the kingdom of God.' What does that mean? It means we should lean on, and trust in the grace of Jesus Christ. We should repent of our sins and have a desire to turn away from it. We should seek to put God first in our praise to Him, in our worship of Him, to put our total trust in Him and to rely on Him rather than ourselves or others. We need to seek Him first in our reassurance and acknowledging who He is and what He can do. We also need to seek God's righteousness by loving our neighbors and feeding the poor and destitute, seek justice for the vulnerable. We should put God's plan and
