Kingship
Read Luke 1.29-33
“You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call Him Jesus ..’” (Lk.1.31)
God was now fulfilling a promise long since made – the promise of a King, wise, strong and righteous, whose kingdom will endure for ever: He was to be called ‘Jesus’, because salvation is known as our lives are placed under His kingship.
Have you owned Jesus as Lord? How did God bring you into His kingdom?
You are to call Him Jesus too – ‘the Lord saves’: how have you experienced His saving power and grace?
Prayer: Thank You, my Lord and King, that You deliver the needy who cry out, taking pity on them and saving Your people from death.
