THE ENTHRONED KING
Bible Text: Hebrews 1:6-9
RBT Passage: 2 Corinthians 5-9
But to the Son He says: ‘Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.” Hebrews 1:8 NKJV
A couple of years ago, a popular throne became vacant in the southern part of Nigeria, and after many processes, a 40-year old man emerged and was enthroned as the king of the ancient town.
Jesus Christ, as prophesied in the Old Testament, is the enthroned King of the universe. He became enthroned because of His obedience and humility to the sovereignty of God (Philippians 2: 5-11). Hence, God makes Him the Supreme King in both the heaven and the earth. His kingdom is of righteousness, joy, justice and peace in the Holy Ghost.
The entire world is expected to belong to this exalted and special kingdom, but only those who abide in Him are automatically the legitimate heirs to His throne. This is made possible by the virtue of the blood He shed on the cross of Calvary. Therefore, you should daily live under the grace of being a prince or princess of this enthroned King of the universe. This will give you the opportunity to enjoy all the rights and privileges attached to the throne, even now and forever
Insight: You can only become a member of the Kingdom if you yield to Jesus completely
Prayer: God, help me to live in the consciousness of who I am in you always.
