Who Is Jesus

Do you know Who Jesus is? Do you really understand His identity?   We know from the Bible that He is many things: a child, a carpenter, a leader of men. We know that He is our Savior, the One who went to the cross to take on our sin.   He is also our King.   1 Timothy 1:17, “All honor and glory to God forever and ever! He is the eternal King, the unseen one who never dies; he alone is God. Amen.”   In this letter to his young friend, Paul emphasized to Timothy that Jesus has dominion over everything and everyone. That’s because Jesus knows exactly what needs to be done in every situation.   While His earthly characteristics and roles give us some picture of Him, it is the picture of Him as King that best describes Him. God the Father has made Jesus Lord overall, and in Him, we find true peace.   Have you ever felt safe because you knew your dad or mom was in charge and would do everything right?   We have that confidence in Jesus times infinity! He is our great and good King, forevermore.   Let’s pray.   Lord, you have set Jesus aside as unlike anyone else, ever. You have placed kingly robes and a special crown on His head. Thank you for sending your Son for our sake. Amen.
