One Day All Shall Bow

“Therefore God exalted him to the highest place & gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven & on earth & under the earth, & every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”- Philippians 2:9-11

                  Jesus, who is God in the flesh, came to earth to play out the Father’s plan for the salvation of mankind. When He died on the cross He went to hell & back, thus defeating Satan. Therefore, through His actions, Christ has clear dominion over all regions of the earth. All who exist in heaven, on earth & in hell shall one day kneel & declare Jesus Christ Lord. God’s plans are never thwarted. Don’t forget, He is all-powerful, all-knowing & in all places at one time by His Spirit. There is no one else in existence who can say that. And there is also no one in creation who can challenge Him. There are those who fancy themselves as something special. Their arrogance makes them feel almost godlike in a way, but even they will be compelled to bow before Christ on that appointed day.

                  This should be an encouragement to all believers. That will be the final victory proving once for all that no one in all creation can resist bowing down to the Lord Jesus Christ. God shall receive all glory that is due Him. No one shall steal His thunder on that day. We, as believers, must live lives worthy of the grace God has freely given us. The mercy He has shown in the face of our unbridled impudence is truly remarkable. The restraint He shows in the light of the fact that He could obliterate us with one finger is evidence of His great & unwavering love for His children. Kneeling before Christ one day will be a privilege & honor, for we do so in our hearts now; then we can do it in His presence. Until next time, walk with the King and be a blessing.
