God Is Our King

-July 28, 2025-

Good morning beloved, happy Monday,

“For God is my King from of old, working salvation in the midst of the earth.”

(Psalm 74:12).

Our God is the King of Glory, the King of the Jews, the King of kings, the King over all the earth. He rules and reigns from heaven. The question is, is He my King?

In the days of Samuel, who was a prophet, priest, and judge, the people of Israel wanted, even demanded a king like all the other nations. God told Samuel that they didn’t rejected him, they rejected Him as their King. They were in effect wanting their own way. Anytime we live by our own authority, it is never going to be good.

We know from the Scriptures, Jesus is our King in everything. He will lead us, guide us, and provide for us. We can put ourselves under His rule and authority. In every situation, every trial, every decision.

The hymn writer, Jennie Evelyn Hussey wrote, “King of my life I crown Thee now—Thine shall the glory be; Lest I forget Thy thorn-crowned brow, lead me to Calvary.” They placed on His head a crown of thorns; we place on His head the crown of righteousness, peace, and authority.

Jesus is my King. I submit to His authority, and I live according to His will. Have a blessed day living for our King. Stay safe and healthy.

You can only serve and submit to one King.
