against spiritual warfare. "No weapon formed against you shall prosper" (Isa 54:17). Trust God's protection: "He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge" (Ps 91:4). Praying for His intervention and peace. In Jesus' name! Pilate said, "So you are a king?"
Jesus responded, "You say I am a king. Actually, I was born and came into the world to testify to the truth. All who love the truth recognize that what I say is true."
—John 18:37 NLT
Jesus came as King. He did not come as a king in robes of royalty or with a fine palace and a royal court. Instead, Jesus came as the King of Truth in simplicity and with a band of everyday folks called apostles. His mission was not to conquer the political landscape, but for God's truth to win the hearts of the people — all people, not just the Jewish people. Truth, however, is dangerous for some people. Every pretender to a powerful position and those who misuse the power that they have are threatened by one who is genuinely qualified and powerful in ways that they don't understand. They fear the truth. So the true King was murdered so that they could feel secure in the power that they had. The only problem was that once the truth was out there, no earthly power could keep the truth from triumphing. Where is Pilate's power today? And Herod's thirst for royal recognition? And Caesar's rule? And the Roman Empire? All are gone, even those who actually had royal and powerful positions. On the other hand, one King still reigns over the hearts of men and women of all races — Jesus, the King of Truth!
Father, thank you for the blessing of an everlasting Kingdom and a triumphant King — your Son and my Savior, Jesus. May his truth and his Kingdom come to complete triumph in my life. Amen.
