Behold, The True King

 DECEMBER 29, 2023
 Daily Reading – Zechariah 11-14 / Revelation 21

 GOD’S WORD:

Zechariah 14:9 And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.

 GETTING INTO GOD’S WORD:

        The people of this world that we live in, have always sought after a god. Some will say there is no God. In doing so, they make themselves out to be their own god. Others look to the stars and science, believing in some way, the study of our solar system, and all that is out there, will give us the understanding we need about our existence. They have made education their god. While many create a god of their own liking. One that might look like them, or that may resemble an animal, or plant that they can see and touch. They create a god in their own image. Then there are the multiple religions created around ancient faulty teachings, or new age cults. Everyone, whether they realize it or not, desires to worship something or someone. Arguments, family divisions, national disputes, and even bloody wars have been the result of these multiple ideas of a god. How great it would be if everyone would realize that there is really only one true God.

        That day is coming. Through the prophesies of Zechariah we read, “And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.” The world will speak one pure language according to Zeph. 3:9. God casts out all false idols and beliefs according to Zech. 13:1-2. Finally, His name will be the only name recognized as the eternal King of Kings. The truth of Deut. 6:4 says, “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:” 

       

 GETTING GOD’S WORD INTO ME:

        No one needs to wait for the Millennial reign of our Lord Jesus Christ to crown Him King of their life. When we remove the other idols of this world from our life, including self, science, and social idolatry, we can then worship Him as the only Lord in our life.

Is He the King of Kings in your life?
