Bible Ballistics: BBs #506 Sovereign Control???
I have a very simple but profound passage to share with you today. After the election in the U.S. yesterday I just wanted to remind us all that our God is faithful and sovereign over all things. So no matter how the elections turned out—God Still Reigns—Amen and Amen.
“Why do the heathen rage,
and the people imagine a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth
set themselves,
and the rulers
take counsel together,
against the LORD,
and against his anointed,
saying,
3 Let us break their bands asunder,
and cast away their cords from us.
4 He that sitteth in the heavens
shall laugh:
the Lord shall have them
in derision.
5 Then shall he speak unto them
in his wrath,
and vex them
in his sore displeasure.
6 Yet have I set my king
upon my holy hill of Zion.
7 I will declare the decree:
the LORD hath said unto me,
Thou art my Son;
this day have I begotten thee.
8 Ask of me,
and I shall give thee the heathen
for thine inheritance,
and the uttermost parts of the earth
for thy possession.
9 Thou shalt break them
with a rod of iron;
thou shalt dash them in pieces
like a potter’s vessel.
10 Be wise now therefore,
O ye kings: be instructed,
ye judges of the earth.
11 Serve the LORD with fear,
and rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the Son,
lest he be angry,
and ye perish from the way,
when his wrath
is kindled but a little.
Blessed are all they
that put their trust in him.” Psalm 2:1-11
God is at work in our world to accomplish HIS purpose in all things—leading to the imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ at any time—and that my friend is our hope, joy and confidence!!! Will you be blessed to be HIS child or one that HE will receive His wrath? The choice is yours but there is a test at the end!
“And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse;
and he that sat upon him was called
Faithful and True,
and in righteousness
he doth judge
and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire,
and on his head were many crowns;
and he had a name written,
that no man knew,
but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture
dipped in blood:
and his name is called
The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven
followed him upon white horses,
clothed in fine linen,
white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth
goeth a sharp sword,
that with it he should smite the nations:
and he shall rule them
with a rod of iron:
and he treadeth the winepress
of the fierceness
and wrath
of Almighty God.
16 And he hath on his vesture
and on his thigh
a name written,
KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.” Revelation 19:11-16
Even so come quickly Lord Jesus, our eternal “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS”!!! Amen and Amen!
Are you ready? If not I pray that you will come to Jesus today in repentance and faith—for HE gave HIS own life’s blood to save YOU/me from our sin! And I pray that those of us who are HIS will faithfully, “walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called” in His power, love and grace!
Blessings on your day!!! Amen and Amen.
