“Before me every knee will bow; …” – Isaiah 45:23

When a lady in our church service prayed that the day will come on which everyone will kneel down before the Lord Jesus Christ, something stirred within me.

“I must remember that,  when I talk to people again about what the Lord has done for me,” (Personal Evangelism, short P.E.) I told myself. 

P1060838-768x1024“Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above  every name,

Philippians 2:9-11

Intr.:

that at the name of Jesus

1.  every knee should bow,

a.  in heaven and

b.  on earth and

c.  under the earth, and

2.  every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,

End:

to the glory of God the Father.”

Please read also Isaiah 45:23 and Romans 14:11.

In Ephesians 3:14 the apostle Paul says that he is kneeling down before the Father and in Psalm 95:6 the Psamist says to us: “COME, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel down before the LORD our Maker; … ” Why should we do that? The Psalmist gives the answer, “For he is our God and we are the people of his pasture, the flock under his care.”

Most of the people we talk to do not bow down before the Lord and do not confess to God, but I know now afresh that the day will come that they will bow before God and will confess to God and I will tell them. Read Romans 14:11

I am thankful to the Lord that I am bowing down before him already!
