One of the names for God is Alpha and Omega; the Beginning
and the End. Many years ago I was privileged
to hear Dr. S. M. Lockridge preach his sermon on the Lord’s Prayer. His focus was on who God is. As I promised earlier here is a link to the
heart of that sermon and the accompanying text.
I feel it is a great way to spend seven minutes of your Sunday morning.
The Bible says my King is a seven-way king
He's the King of the
Jews; that's a racial king
He's the King of
Israel; that's a national King
He's the King of
Righteousness
He's the King of the
Ages
He's the King of
Heaven
He's the King of Glory
He's the King of
kings, and He is the Lord of lords. That's my King.
Well....I wonder, do
you know Him?
Don’t try to mislead
me. Do you know my King?
David said, "The
Heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament showeth His handiwork."
My King is a sovereign
King.
No means of measure
can define His limitless love.
No far seeing
telescope can bring into visibility the coastline of His shoreless supply.
No barrier can hinder
Him from pouring out His blessings.
He's enduringly
strong.
He's entirely sincere.
He's eternally
steadfast.
He's immortally
graceful.
He's imperially
powerful.
He's impartially
merciful.
That’s my king
Do you know Him?
He's the greatest
phenomenon that has ever crossed the horizon of this world.
He's God's Son.
He's the sinner's
Savior.
He's the centerpiece
of civilization.
He stands in the
solitude of Himself.
He's august and He's
unique.
He's unparalleled.
He's unprecedented.
He is the loftiest
idea in literature.
He's the highest
personality in philosophy.
He is the supreme
problem in higher criticism.
He's the fundamental
doctrine of true theology.
He is the cardinal
necessity of spiritual religion.
He's the miracle of
the age.
He's -- yes He is --
He is the superlative of everything good that you choose to call Him.
He is the only one
able to supply all of our needs simultaneously.
He's the only one
qualified to be an all sufficient Savior.
I wonder if you know
Him today?
He supplies strength
for the weak.
He's available for the
tempted and the tried.
He sympathizes and He
saves.
He strengthens and
sustains.
He guards and He
guides.
He heals the sick.
He cleansed the
lepers.
He forgives sinners.
He discharges debtors.
He delivers the
captives.
He defends the feeble.
He blesses the young.
He serves the
unfortunate.
He regards the aged.
He rewards the
diligent....and He beautifies the meek.
I wonder if you know
Him?
Well, my King....He is
the King!
He's the key to
knowledge.
He's the wellspring of
wisdom.
He's the doorway of
deliverance.
He's the pathway of
peace.
He's the roadway of
righteousness.
He's the highway of
holiness.
He's the gateway of
glory.
He’s the master of the
mighty
He’s captain of the conquerors
He’s the head of the heroes
He’s the leader of the
legislators
He’s overseer of the overcomers
He’s the governor of
the governors
He’s the price of princes
He’s the king of kings
He’s the LORD of lords
That’s my king
Yes
Yes
That’s my king
Do you know Him?
Well my King, His
office is manifold.
His promise is sure
And His light is
matchless.
His goodness is
limitless.
His mercy is
everlasting.
His love never
changes.
His word is enough.
His grace is
sufficient.
His reign is
righteous.
And His yoke is easy,
and his burden is light.
I wish I could
describe Him to you, but He's indescribable -- Yes He is! He is God!
He's incomprehensible.
He's invincible.
He's irresistible.
I’m trying to tell you
that the heaven of heavens cannot contain him
Yet alone a man
explain him
Well, you can't get
Him out of your mind.
You can't get Him off
of your hands.
You can't out live
Him, and you can't live without Him.
The Pharisees couldn't
stand Him,
but they found out
they couldn't stop Him.
Pilate couldn't find
any fault in Him.
The witnesses couldn't
get their testimonies to agree.
Herod couldn't kill
Him.
Death couldn't handle
Him
And the grave couldn't
hold Him.
Yea!!!, that's my
King, that's my King.
He always has been and
he always will be
I’m talking about
He has no predecessor
and he has no successor
There was nobody
before him and there will be nobody after him
You can’t impeach him
and he’s not going to resign
Yes, and Thine is the
Kingdom....and the Power....and the Glory
All the power belongs
to my King
We talk about black
power, and white power, and green power but its God’s power
....Forever....and
ever, and ever, and ever -- How long is that? And ever, and ever.
How long is that?
And when you get
through with all of the forevers, then. AMEN!
Good God
Almighty! AMEN! AMEN!
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer
who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store."
