My King  

Let me tell you about my king.  I hope I can find the words to describe Him
My king is a king in many ways
He is King of light
He’s the King of all Creation
He’s the King of Righteousness
He’s the King of Life
He’s the King of Love
He’s the King of the Jews
He’s the King of Eternity and the Lord of infinity
He’s the King of peace
and now
He’s the King of Kings and Lord of Lords
and He’s my King. He can be your king.

His Kingdom will never end, He rules in love.
His kingdom, has no more death, no more mourning, no more crying,
no more tears of pain. He turfs these.
No room for them for the former things will pass away and not remain.
He’s made room for you. Can you find room for Him? Will you come?

Maybe your not understanding me, what I mean is No one will get sick or die. Death will be gone. His Kingdom is sure. Jesus shall reign where ever the sun doth, his successive journeys run. His kingdom shall stretch from shore to shore. Till moon shall wax and wain no more. He invites you to be a part of it.In His kingdom, no lying, cheating, stealing, hatred, anger,racism, tyranacism, despotism, child abuse, murder or any form of sin and evil will take a long awaited and permanent break, and will never raise their ugly heads ever again. I wish I could describe His kingdom to you, but I just Can’t find the words, except to say His kingdom will never, never end.

I’d like to tell more about my king
My King, - He’s the Light of the World - No darkness exists in Him at all
My King - He’s the Way - The only way to His bountiful and glorious Kingdom
My King - He’s the Truth in the superlative and can’t be impeached for lies, he can’t be bribed by greed, he can’t be tried and stood down, he has no favourites. He favours all. He is king forever.

He is Life to the full and will give life to the full to all who seek Him, and in His kingdom. He is full and completed in joy and engulfs those in His Kingdom with such Joy,  that life in this body can’t even begin to understand, imagine or experience, until we become His own and His Kingdom and His happiness are ours.

Do you want His life, Joy and Peace? Do you want His Kingdom?
Do you want to live and reign with Him forevermore?
You can, just seek Him, guess what? He’s seeking you.
If you seek Him you will find Him. He will find you and show you His way.
If I can muster the words superlative enough to paint His picture and describe Him. I will tell you more about my King.

He’s the master of creation, but not in darkness and sin.
He saw our plight, facing eternal death and destruction. He stooped down in compassion and Love and in His Mercy, set about our eternal rescue.  

He loved us so much that He as creator became a man a being just as we. Not born how we are born, in sin and despair. He was perfectly conceived, impeccable, able not to sin and not able to sin, without a skerrick of sin, evil or wickedness at all. He failed not though all around Him were. He came as The Word. From whom all Worlds language pays homage.

He lived among his creatures and promised them His Kingdom and would be their king. He turned water into wine, healed the sick and the lame, made the blind to see and raised the dead Back to life again. He walked on water and quelled the storm with the word “Peace be still’ The wind and the waves obey Him.

He proved Himself King time and time again. He had many witnesses, but they did not believe in Him. His Father said of Him. “You are my beloved Son and with you I am well pleased” He said that we must listen to Him.

Are you listening? He has the words of eternal life and the only way to God and the Father is through Him.

My King was betrayed by one of His own, can you believe it His own people and they wanted to kill Him, they tried to bury him under a heap of rocks then tried to shove Him off a cliff, but He was too powerful for them, as the Lord of eternity he walked right through them, besides His time had not yet come.

They had their way when in the fullness of time.  He was prepared and ready for what was to come. He knew it. A company of Roman soldiers and the temple guard came to arrest Him, secretly at night like he was leading a rebellion. They could not stand in His company. When Jesus asked who they were seeking, Jesus of Nazareth came the reply. “I am” he replied and they all fell over.  Many Roman soldiers with all their equipment and the temple guard too, what a sight. Will you stand before Him? You will if you belong to Him.

They began His trial at night; they slugged, ridiculed and mocked my King.  The Lord of all eternity, highly illegal for Jewish law and a fair trial was His right, though He had done nothing wrong. They slapped, berated and mocked my king. They marched him of to Pilate the Roman governor, to have Him tried and executed by crucifixion as a common thief. He knew all that would happen, yet our rescue was so important to Him. He willingly yielded to the mob. He knew the End from the beginning, from ancient times what was yet to come. His purpose will stand and He will do all as He pleases. Our rescue was His pleasure and delight.

When pressed for a crime by Pilate they could not bring one to bear, except that He was their King. They couldn't even get two witnesses to agree in their accusations. Pilate had Him flogged. Time and time again he Pilate said, “he found no fault in Him”. He tried to release Him and called Him “The Man”, he never winced, not even once. He offered to release Barrabas a thief and a murder but they would no listen, and kept on shouting “Crucify, crucify” Crucify your king, Pilate couldn't believe his ears. We have no king but Caesar they barked back to him.  Pilate gave to their demand and washed his hands of the whole affair. He was given over to the Romans soldiers. I wish I could describe how awfully he was treated, but words can’t express.

The roman soldiers took him and flayed him alive, they gathered together the whole company of soldiers, they dressed him in a scarlet robe. They rammed a cruel crown of thorns on his head, thorns for the king of eternity, place a read in His hands and mockingly bowed the knee.  They spat on Him, mocked and ridiculed, and beat Him so badly that he could not be recognised. They spat on Him and pulled the beard out of His face. All this to My King they took him up to the place of the skull outside the City Walls where they crucified my dear Lord. There they crucified Him. A robber on either side. Lifted up in agony they offered him wine vinegar for anaesthetic but He refused. He needed none. He knew He was rolling back the physical and spiritual consequences of sin and was willing to experience the full agony and was willing.

I wish I could describe to you all his suffering, but my imagination won’t let me, except to say in all this suffering, He opened not His mouth, did not cry out or scream at all, no murmur or complaint. What was this man made off.  As a sheep before her shearers is silent, so He opened not His mouth. He had legions of angels to call upon, but he held fast, because he delighted to do His Fathers will and to finish His work that he was given to do.

It was after the sixth hour his suffering really began, so bad was it that His Father covered the place with thick darkness. What He went through no tongue can tell, to save our soul from death and hell. His Father took all our sins and failings and heaped them all upon Him. Then He judged Him instead of us. He who knew no sin was made sin and had our stench poured out in Him, He was bruised instead of us. He went through Hell so we wouldn't have to. For three hours he hung there. He was forsaken by His Father and was totally alone.

After three hours bearing our sins, faults and failures. He thought of His mum and gave her into the care of the disciples He loved. Then cried out It is finished - pushed His head forward and gave up his breath. A great earthquake shook the place, the three foot thick curtain in the temple was ripped in two from top to bottom, tombs opened and the dead walked out,. And the Roman centurion in charge declared about my My King, My creator, My Shepherd, My Messiah, and My Lord. This was a righteous man. The crowd smote their breasts and went away. This the final testimony to the fact that my king had done nothing wrong. Just for good measure they plunged a spear into His side. His body was removed and placed into a new tomb and sealed with a Roman seal.

 He had completed our rescue from our sin, so total and so complete. His body went to the grave, His Spirit to His Father and His soul went to paradise, where one of the thieves was to come to later as he promised him. He recognised in his dying hours his King and Saviour. While were alive it’s never too late to come.

Tragedy turned to triumph. His soul came out of paradise, His Spirit from the Father, both met in His body and he was raised to Life. Victory, Victory, heaven is the war cry victory. Imagine it Many saw Him. Death was dealt its final blow, our burdens were lifted our future can now rest secure. He is risen indeed. He is calling you, will you come. Will you trust and rely on His suffering and work for you.

Maybe you think this kingdom is too much for words. Your dead right. Words can’t express what are stored up for them that love Him. He can do infinitely above all we could ask according to His glorious riches. In the psalms it says “you have made known to me the path of life, in your presence is the fullness of joy, with pleasures at you right hand forevermore.

Don’t marvel at His kingdom, just believe in Him. Unless a man is born again He cannot see or enter the Kingdom of God. For flesh gives birth to flesh and the Spirit give birth to Spirit.

God loved the world so much
He who knew no sin was made sin
I give unto them eternal life
The market place is empty, no more traffic in the streets
All the builders’ tools are silent, no more time to harvest wheat
Little children and the aged, hand in hand stand all aglow
Who were crippled, broken, ruined. Now dressed in garments white as snow.  

I can hear the trumpet sounding. I can see the marching throng
The flurry of Gods trumpets, spell the end of sin and wrong.
Regal robes are now unfolded, heavens grandstands all in place.
Heavens choir is now assembled. Start to sing amazing grace.
Oh the king is coming, the king is coming
I can hear the trumpets sounding and now His face I see.
Praise God He’s coming for me. 

`When God speaks, all conversation ends
When God promises, His word is it 
Will you accept Him, he'll accept you, He’s waiting
Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.
