Preparing for corporate worship

The kingship of Jesus is a consistent theme in Scripture. It is pointed to before and after His birth (Luke 1:30-33; Matt. 2:2). As recorded in the gospels, He spoke often during His public ministry of the kingdom of God -- a kingdom He would rule over. He will come to vanquish His foes bearing the title "King of Kings" (Rev. 19:16). There are many names, titles and attributes of our Lord and Savior we can ponder and proclaim when we gather as a church each week. May we not minimize or forget His kingship. He is a king like no other. He deserves allegiance, devotion, submission, worship and adoration no ruler of past, present or future comes anywhere close to deserving. May we gather this Sunday prepared to humble ourselves before Him as grateful subjects and citizens of His kingdom. He is King. There is no other.
