The Living King

Devotional

Among all religious figures throughout history, Jesus stands uniquely alone. While others have come and gone, leaving only memories and perhaps earthly remains, Jesus demonstrated His divine nature through both predicting and fulfilling His death and resurrection. This wasn't just a historical event - it was the greatest expression of love ever shown to humanity. When we truly grasp this reality, it changes everything about how we view our relationship with God. He isn't a distant deity or a historical figure; He is the living King who conquered death itself to demonstrate His love for us. This truth should fill us with hope and confidence, knowing that we serve a God who is alive and active in our lives today.

Bible Verse

"But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be your slave" - Matthew 20:26-27

Reflection Question

How does knowing that Jesus is alive today, not just a historical figure, change the way you approach your daily life and relationship with Him?

Quote He's the only God that's predicted his death and his resurrection. That had happened all other gods. If there are in idols, they're all in the ground. If they were buried and were real, the bones are still there. But not Jesus. He's a living king.

Prayer

Living King, help me to truly grasp the magnitude of Your resurrection power. Let this truth transform how I live each day, knowing that You are alive and active in my life. Thank You for Your ultimate demonstration of love. Amen.
