Messiah’s Right to Reign
The Messiah (the Christ) is The Anointed One of God. To learn more, click on the “Attributes and Names of God” and then click on “Christ”. To see this same page in the devotionals go to Monday, June 20, 2011.
Do you worship Messiah when you pray? He is the Anointed One of God – Who came and died for your sins, taking your just judgment on Himself at the cross. No matter your sin(s), when you look to Jesus Christ (Messiah) and ask His forgiveness…you are forgiven…‘go and sin no more’ said Jesus throughout Scripture.
The lineage of Messiah is of great importance. The genealogical record of Joseph is found in Matthew 1:1-17 and Mary’s lineage is found in Luke 3:23-38.
Joseph’s family can be traced back to David through Solomon and Mary’s family traced through Nathan…both of these men were sons of David and Bathsheba.
Scripture tells of prophecies about Messiah coming through King David whose throne is established forever by God.
Your belief in the coming King Jesus does affect your eternity.
(NASB) Psalm 93:1-2 “THE LORD reigns, He is clothed with majesty;
The LORD has clothed and girded Himself with strength;
Indeed, the world is firmly established, it will not be moved.
2 Your throne is established from of old;
You are from everlasting.”
The eternal King will be on His eternal throne and He will rule forever.
(NASB) Revelation 20:11 “Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat upon it…”
The eternal King is coming to rule and reign…to whom should you turn?
The eternal God Who will be the ultimate Victor over your sins, death and Satan.
There is no other in heaven, or on earth, or under the earth who has such power.
Who do you know who needs to hear this Good News?
This is the Christ Who was born of a virgin, the Christ, (Messiah) sent for you and me. He alone has the credentials to reign over all. He alone has the right to reign on the throne of David. The miracle of Christ Jesus’ conception will ultimately be fulfilled in His reign as Messiah.
Messiah has the credentials, the lineage and the authority to reign as King.
