Jesus is Honored Above all Things


Listen Later

We can never honor Jesus Christ too much. In the Bible, Jesus is honored in four major, distinct ways above all things.   1. As the creator of the universe. We see this taught in John 1:3, Colossians 1:16, and other verses. The implication is clear: We are part of Christ’s creation. No wonder He values us!  2. As the sustainer of the universe. Hebrews 1:3 says Jesus is “sustaining all things by his powerful word.” We experience that strengthening as we read God’s Word, pray, worship the Lord, mingle with the church, and love our neighbors.  3. As the Savior of the world. Hebrews 1:3 says Jesus has “provided purification for sins.” How astonishing that you and I are purified, washed, and redeemed because of Jesus Christ’s death on the cross—for us and for our sins. That is the Good News we must share with people in our world.             4. As the Lord of all. Hebrews 1:4 says Jesus sits “at the right hand of God in heaven.” In Bible times, priests never sat down. Jesus Christ could sit down, however, because His priestly work of redemption is complete once and for all. And in His seat of highest honor, Jesus never stops praying for you and me.
Let’s never, ever stop worshiping and honoring our Lord Jesus Christ!
