So…You think Jesus is king?

by | posted in: Uncategorized | 318,743

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.

    Have you ever thought about including a little bit more than just your articles?
    I mean, what you say is important and all. Nevertheless just imagine if you added some great graphics or video clips to
    give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and
    videos, this website could definitely be one of the greatest in its field.
    Awesome blog!

    Hey fellow tech pros,

    Ever feel like every cybersecurity event or forum is just a disguised sales pitch? I did too—until I found this nonprofit platform that’s quietly revolutionizing how IT, OT, and AI security professionals collaborate. Let me break down why you’ll want to get involved ASAP.

    First off, imagine sitting in a room (or virtual space) with top-tier IT execs from Fortune 100 companies, tackling real-world challenges like asset discovery, microsegmentation, or securing AI deployments. No vendors pushing products. No fluff. Just raw, actionable insights from people who’ve been in the trenches. That’s what their RoundTable events deliver. I walked away with strategies I implemented the next day—finally, a place where “business impact” isn’t just a buzzword.

    But here’s the kicker: there’s a massive skills gap in OT and AI security, and this org is bridging it. They’re partnering with military agencies, colleges, and trade schools to train and place talent in high-demand roles. If you’re transitioning from the military, a recent grad, or just looking to pivot into OT/AI security, they’re your backstage pass to opportunities most never see.

    For employers? They’re a goldmine for vetted experts. I’ve referred my own team to their job program—finally, a pipeline of talent that actually gets it.

    Oh, and it’s all nonprofit. No hidden agendas. Just a 25-year industry vet and a team obsessed with securing our digital world. They even offer sponsor spots for companies wanting to showcase thought leadership (without the cringe sales vibe).

    I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog
    and was curious what all is needed to get setup?
    I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost
    a pretty penny? I’m not very internet savvy so I’m not 100% positive.
    Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks
