So…You think Jesus is king?

by | posted in: Uncategorized | 88,935

With all this election posting on social media, one thing has caught my attention. A lot of people keep posting that Christ is King. If that is so, and I would agree with them, then the question I have is this. Do we realize what making Christ King means for our lives?

The first thing is that is Jesus is king, then he is king over all, whether they have accepted him or not.  This also means he is king over all our politics, business deals, education, and every other part of our lives. To have a king is different than a president or governor. A king has total authority to determine how we shall live. We have a choice to either submit in total to the kings will or live in adversity to him and risk the wrath of the judgment of the king. There is also the third party that gives lip service to the king but ignores his statutes. This is where I argue much of the church is today. We have sought peace from earthly kings and now believe we have elected one. So what now? Now we need to do what we should do regardless who sits in government. We need to cry out to the Lord, “We have sinned, because we have forsaken the Lord and have served the Baals and the Ashtaroth. But now deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, that we may serve you.” (1 Sam. 12:10) “ And now behold the king whom you have chosen, for whom you have asked; behold, the Lord has set a king over you. 14 If you will fear the Lord and serve him and obey his voice and not rebel against the commandment of the Lord, and if both you and the king who reigns over you will follow the Lord your God, it will be well. 15 But if you will not obey the voice of the Lord, but rebel against the commandment of the Lord, then the hand of the Lord will be against you and your king.” (1 Sam. 12:13-15)

We have chosen our earthly king, but he must submit to the authority of God for things to go well with us. But all the cards are not in his lap. It is us who should study to show ourselves approved. Paul tells us in 1 Thessalonians that to be entrusted with the gospel means we must speak not to please man, but to please God. If we have been transformed by the gospel ourselves, then we live by God’s standards and we need to stop trying to change them to match our standards. We must seek out the standards of God and seek to live as salt and light, different from the world and quit assimilating into it. We must seek the standards of God because they will show us the error of our ways and cause us to repent. Repentance is a beautiful thing. It brings us to God and when he pours his mercy and grace on us we have true peace. In God’s kingdom there is freedom, true freedom, the kind that comes from serving a good king. One who does not lay heavy burdens on His people. But this king calls us to go into the world with truth, not with feel goodness but with truth that can sometimes be hard. But it has to begin with each of us individually. We must apply the truth of God to our own lives. Then apply it to our families and finally our churches. That is when we will see the freedom and peace, for ourselves and for our children.

So if you believe God is truly on the throne, then seek the king’s orders. He is a king who loves, a king who died for you, so give your life to serve him in how He commands.

    With this option, you’ll be assigned a professional photographer and videographer who will jump with you. The camera flyer wears a full-resolution still camera and video camera on their helmet. They record the skydive experience from an outside perspective. This service runs between $100-$150 for a photo + video package.
    Conclusion
    Must be at least 18 years old.
    When one wonders why no human being has ever had sex in space, part of the answer is that actually living in the cosmos, rather than visiting it for scientific field research purposes, is not what NASA intends. American and Russian astronauts have had sex in space for separate research programs on how humans could survive years in orbit, according to a book published yesterday. The story uses the cheating astronauts to describe techniques humans could use to copulate in space without special devices. As a result, their actions would not change their speed unless affected by another undocked object.

    Why Do Some Novice Skydivers Experience a Drop in the Stomach?
    Must read and speak English to complete waiver, communicate with instructors.
    The minimum age to go skydiving is 18 in the United States. However, each country has its regulations governing the sport of skydiving. In some cases, the age requirement may be higher.
    6. Use the correct body position: Proper body positioning plays a key role in controlling your movements while participating in indoor skydiving. Maintain a compact, stable posture with arms extended in front, and legs slightly bent at the knees. This position helps you stay balanced and maneuver more effectively within the wind tunnel.
    If you were not at least a little bit afraid of jumping out of the airplane, it would not have the same effect on you. You would still be able to enjoy the freefall and the beautiful scenery but your body would be less likely to send out dopamine after your jump. Dopamine is also known as the “happiness hormone” that controls our feeling of happiness.
