We proclaim a kingdom with a ruler who has come and conquered sin and death.   #daybydaylw   Interested in learning more about becoming a devoted follower of Christ? Go to follow.lifeword.org!   ~~~   In God’s Kingdom there is complete righteousness. Finally, we see that in the kingdom of Christ, there is complete righteousness. David was able to extend an imperfect righteousness and justice throughout His kingdom. It was prevalent, but it was not perfect. But in the kingdom of Christ, His perfect righteousness reigns supreme. And the way it works today is that His righteous rule is to be known and seen through the church, the lives of her members. But that doesn’t happen perfectly does it? It’s not that rule of Christ is imperfect, but rather that we are still undergoing our transformation. But shouldn’t we be an environment, a people, who are looking more and more like what the new earth will look and be like? We should. Sure, we still strikeout sometimes. This is the kingdom we live in, believer. Under the rule of a King who has success wherever He goes. Who is worthy of all our trust and worship. Who reigns over all in perfect righteousness. And this is the kingdom we proclaim. The King has come. The King has conquered. The King reigns. Now under his authority, under His command, Trust Him. Follow Him, and go get the nations! Whatever you are facing, faith in Christ, no matter how hard, how difficult, how uncomfortable it is, faith in Christ is the victory.
