“So that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth.”
We have the greatest opportunity of all times. We have the opportunity to bow our knee voluntarily to Jesus Christ. One day in the future, at the culmination of all things, every one, of all ages and all domains, will have to bow to the triumphant name of Jesus Christ.
But God gives us that great opportunity to bow to His name today because we both know Him and love Him in this life.
The Message Bible says: “So that all created beings in heaven and on earth—even those long ago dead and buried—will bow in worship before this Jesus Christ.
One day in the future, all beings in heaven, and on earth, and in the world below the earth will fall on their knees and acknowledge Jesus as the Lord of the Universe. Don’t wait to be forced by shame and sin to acknowledge Him.
Make the decision to bow today and Jesus with change your life completely. Then on that great day to come, you will be one of the many who will bow your knees because He truly is your Lord and Master. Don’t wait for judgment day. Bow your knees today.
I bow my knees to the Lord Jesus Christ as a decision of my heart to accept Him.
