A WEIGHTY MATTER

A WEIGHTY MATTER
IN THE BEGINNING...THE WORD
DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY, JANUARY 5, 2012


For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6

The government of the world, of every kingdom, of every age, is upon the shoulder of Jesus Christ.  Jesus is in perfect control and has complete authority over all things in heaven and in earth.  He rules.  He reigns. 

Jesus desires to give us authority in his kingdom on earth, as it is in heaven; but we must first prove that we can handle weighty matters.

Today, let us regard the government of Christ Jesus, and pray for wisdom and power to rule well.
