WHO WILL BOW THE KNEE TO THE SON OF DAVID?
Thus began the divided kingdoms of Israel and Judah. The writer of 2 Chronicles must have been living during the time of the two Jewish kingdoms, so his words had a historic meaning. Yet, they also have a prophetic meaning because Israel is still in rebellion against the Son of David to this day. However, there is coming a Day when not only Israel’s rebellion will end, but the rebellion of humanity will end. On that Day, every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (Phil. 2:10).
PRAYER: Father, thank You for Jesus. He is the promised Son of David, the Messiah, the Son of God, the Christ, our Savior and Lord. We willingly bow our knees and our hearts to His Lordship. For by grace through faith in Him we have been saved. Now we pray for those who are still in rebellion against You by their rejection of King Jesus. Lord, soften their hard hearts that they might hear and believe the Good News. In Jesus’ name, amen.
