Since our King Jesus obeyed the difficult Word of the Lord and stayed the kingdom course through exile, we who belong to Him must also stay the kingdom course and seek no other voice to direct us.

Because King Jesus prevailed in blamelessness and took the blame of sin for our sake, we ourselves may now live blamelessly while bearing with the sins of others for his sake.

Jesus Christ is the righteous King who has entrusted His life to God’s judgment giving life to His people that they might follow Him in righteousness.

As surely as the Lord sustained King Jesus through wilderness exile to bring him to His triumph in redemption, so surely will He sustain all who are aligned with the King by faith to bring us to redemption’s glorious end.

Love for King Jesus marks all his people, who give themselves over to share in his deliverance as the Lord prospers him.

Our confidence and courage to fight sin, death, and the devil only comes by sharing in the victory already won for us by the One True King, Jesus Christ, who stands for His people.

Obedience marks all with a real heart for God, all true followers of Jesus Christ, the true champion of faith, who was obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

God’s deliverance through His chosen King overrides an idolatrous people who reject the Lord and His way of salvation.

We need God’s appointed Prophet & Priest to stand between us & Him: One faithful to reveal the Lord to us by His Word and faithful to represent us before Him by intercession & sacrifice.

The only hope for those made desolate by sin is God’s gift of a seed, a Son whose coming brings the fruit of salvation to the humble who trust in His promise.
