Why You Can Stop Worrying

Do you worry about where our nation is headed? Although evil may temporarily prevail, the Bible tells us the end of the story, and it’s a good ending. God prevails. Colossians 2:10 tells us Christ is not only the head of a believer and head over the church, He is HEAD OVER ALL RULE AND AUTHORITY. “and in Him (Christ) you have been made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority…”

Isn’t that exciting? One day every knee will bow before Him.

Examples of people humbling themselves before the Lord who is the head over all rule and authority are found throughout the Bible. Just such a case is King Nebuchadnezzar, who prided himself in his power. Listen to his testimony after God humbled him.

“But at the end of that period, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven and my reason returned to me, and I blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him who lives forever; For His dominion is an everlasting dominion, And His kingdom endures from generation to generation,” Daniel 4:34.

Jesus is head over all rule and authority. Do you acknowledge Him as such and therefore have an uplifted countenance knowing the end of Bible? Is there someone you could encourage with the reminder that in spite of the moral decline and turning away from God, that one day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess Jesus is Lord?

Lord Jesus, thank You that You are HEAD OVER ALL RULE AND AUTHORITY! Use us to speak of our confidence in You and Your reign.
