#2980 – Jesus is Lord

Good morning people who live fully submitted to the authority of Jesus Christ

Philippians 2:9-11 (NIV) 9 Therefore God exalted Him (Jesus) to the highest place and gave Him the name that is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

If God’s desire and your desire are different, whose desire wins?”

“It’s easy to say “Jesus is Lord of my life”, but does our life declare the same statement?”

The word ‘lord’ means: ‘Supreme in authority; that is, Controller’, therefore, lordship is most evident by lifestyle, not by confession.

I believe many gladly accept Jesus as Saviour, but fewer truly submit to Him as Lord. But it’s in our submission to His mission that we flourish most and are truly alive and satisfied.

I want to encourage you to follow the Spirit’s leading on the small things and with the small promptings. Don’t violate ‘that feeling’ you sometimes have that you should ‘stop this’ or ‘do that’. The Holy Spirit is often speaking and it’s for your protection. Freedom is the result of full submission to the Lordship of Christ!
