A King Is Born
Then the
angel said to them, "Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good
tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to
you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord."
And
suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host
praising God and saying: "Glory to God in the highest, And on earth
peace, goodwill toward men!" (Luke 2:10-11, 13-14 NKJV)
A king is
born (Matthew 2:2), not just a king but also a king-maker. Jesus made us
kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth."
(Revelation 5:10). He is the king of kings.
Jesus Christ was born
not only to save us, but also to make us reign on Earth as kings and to
stand in the office of the priests, interceding for men.. What an
honour! What a privilege! Our celebration knows no bound. The Lord's
birth connotes victory on every side.
The season calls for praises
and dances, singing with instruments making joyful songs unto God. No
wonder the three wise men brought gifts to the baby, worshipping Him
(Matthew 2:11) and the shepherds returned glorifying and praising God
(Luke 2:20). A king is born!
So, know that you are a king and a
priest unto God because of Jesus Christ. Think it, talk it and act it,
because as He is so are you on earth ( 1 John 4:17).
The birth of
Jesus is the birth of your victory over all assaults of the enemy. The
celebration of Christ's birth is the celebration of the birth of your
victory, and the end of defeats in your life. Praise God, you reign over
challenges! Hallelujah!
Furthermore, the birth of Christ calls
for the priest in you. God is looking for who to stand in the gap that
men may be saved and not be consumed. He has found you and I worthy to
stand in that gap and intercede, just like our saviour is still
interceding for us in heaven (Hebrews 7:25). When you pray things
happen, the enemy is pushed further away and the will of God prevails.
And when you don't pray, you give the enemy an upper hand. That will not
be the case again in Jesus name.
You are a king and a priest, and
you reign on earth. Arise and take your place, for victory is yours. A
king is born that you may reign too. Praise God! Praise Jesus!
Compliments of the season.
Grace and peace of God be unto you.
