TODAY’S MANNA for Saturday Nov. 9, 2024

One day everyone will bow their knee to God

It is written, “As surely as I live,” says the Lord, “every knee will bow before me; every tongue will confess to God.”
Romans 14:11 New International Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
“Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” Believe it or not, it won’t make any difference when His judgment comes. It doesn’t matter if you call yourself an Atheist and say there is no God. Denial of God is just like denying that there is gravity. But, I guarantee you that if you jump off a 20 story building you will experience gravity whether you believe it exists or not. Yes one day, every knee will bow, in heaven, on the earth, and even under the earth I don’t care who you are or what you believe now. I didn’t say that, God said it! At the judgment you will believe in God like it or not and it might be pleasant if you have denied God in life. But our knees, as believers, already bow before Him. I do not wish to be crushed by the rock and made to submit. I would rather willingly submit to Him now than to be made to submit in the judgment that is to come upon those who will not willingly submit now. As believers we have already submitted to His Lordship over our lives. We live in anticipation of the day when all peoples will bow before our Lord and King. Until that day, let’s do all we can to make sure that we keep Him as our Lord and King! Let us consecrate ourselves anew each day unto the Lord, separate ourselves from the world unto Jesus and let Him prepare us for that Great Day!

MY PRAYER…
Father, I thank You for saving me. May my anticipation of the day of Jesus’ victorious return for His church move me to be Your agent of reconciliation so others may be made ready for that day and welcome it with joy. Give me eyes to see those who need to come to know Jesus today. Give me ears to hear their cries, Lord give me Your heart of compassion for them, that I may minister to them as if I were You for You are in me as I am in You.
In Jesus’ name I pray.
Amen
