今天我們要來談耶穌，我們的君王。祂跟一般的君王不一樣，今天經文閱讀的第15b節告訴我們，耶穌是「萬王的王，萬主的主。」
世間的君王誕生在宮殿裡，但君王耶穌卻是誕生在養牲畜的地方。世間的君王會犯錯，但君王耶穌是完美無瑕的。世間的君王統治一個國家，而耶穌統治整個宇宙。世間的君王是暫時的，而君王耶穌是永恆的！
許多人拒絶耶穌作他們的王，但是當耶穌再來時，每一個人都要敬拜祂、尊榮祂，所有上帝的仇敵，包括魔鬼，都要被打敗，因為耶穌是「萬主之主，萬王之王。他所選召、忠心隨從他的人也要得勝。」（啟示錄17:14b）。
耶穌是你的君王，在今天做的每一件事中你都要崇敬祂、尊榮祂。聖誕快樂！ —GT

「上主要作全地的王；人人都要承認他是獨一無二的上主；他的名是惟一的名。」 撒迦利亞書14:9

禱告：上帝，我讚美祢賜下君王耶穌，願這個聖誕節，所有的尊貴和榮耀都歸於祢。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

Birth Story (14)

Today we will talk about Jesus, our King. But He was not like an ordinary king. Verse 15b of our Bible Reading tells us that Jesus is “the King of all kings and the Lord of all lords.”
Human kings are born in palaces. King Jesus was born in a place where cattle lived. Human kings make mistakes. King Jesus is perfect. Human kings rule over a country. King Jesus rules over the entire universe. Human kings are temporary. King Jesus is forever!
Many people have rejected Jesus as their King. But when Jesus comes again, everyone will worship and honor Him. All of God’s enemies, including the devil, will be defeated because Jesus is “Lord of lords and King of kings. And with him will be his chosen and faithful followers — the people he has called to be his” (Revelation 17:14b).
Jesus is your King. Worship and honor Him in everything you do today. Merry Christmas! —GT

“And the Lord will be the King of the whole world. At that time all people will worship him as the only Lord with only one name.” Zechariah 14:9

PRAYER: God, I praise You for King Jesus. May all the glory and honor be Yours this Christmas. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
