All Hail King Jesus

The Bible closes with a vivid picture of Jesus as the undisputed King of kings, and we look forward to that time when all creation bows before Him. Even more so, we cannot wait to be with our King for ever and ever!

The psalmists of Israel also foresaw the coming of this King, especially in the example they had in their King David. Many of the poetic words they penned esteemed Jesus as the King for Whom they longed. David himself not only saw the future coming of the Eternal King, but he also looked back in time to see Jesus reigning as King before time began.

It is these royal psalms that we will be studying as we celebrate the first arrival on Earth of our King and as we anticipate the second coming of our Royal Majesty. The more clear our vision is of this King, the more we will worship Him, follow Him, and invite others to know Him as their own Lord and Master.

Please join us at Calvary Assembly of God as we rejoin this summer series exploring the beautiful, reverent, and awe-inspiring description of our King of kings in the Book of Psalms. If you would like to check out the Royal Psalms we have already studied, please click here.

This summer we learned about:

God’s Paradigm

The woman was convinced. She saw that the tree was beautiful and its fruit looked delicious, and she wanted the wisdom it would give her. So she took some of the fruit and ate it. Then she gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it, too. (Genesis 3:6 NLT)

Notice that the phrase “Eve was convinced” comes after satan’s argument and before she looked at the fruit. In other words, she looked at the fruit through a wrong paradigm because she had listened to the wrong voice. 

This is why we need to take every thought captive and make it obedient to The Word. 

We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. (2 Corinthians 10:5 NIV)

If we don’t, we—like Eve—can become convinced that sin is okay before we even examine the evidence. Then we aren’t able to evaluate the evidence from a godly paradigm, but from a self-centered, sin-tainted paradigm. But if we capture our thoughts and silence those that don’t line up with God’s Word, we can evaluate the evidence through a Spirit-anointed paradigm.
