Praise Focus-King of Kings

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Praise Focus comes from Revelation 17:14.

They will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will triumph over them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings-and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers.

This is a view of the end times when the kings of this world will be fiercely opposed to Jesus. But they will not prevail against His power or authority, because His reign is supreme. There is no one else above or beside Him who can take away the glory that is worthy of His name.

At the first appearance of Jesus 2,000 years ago, He came as a humble servant who laid down His life as a sacrifice for our sins. When He returns, He will be a conquering King. His faithful followers will be with Him. That is a secure place to be in an apocalyptic war-on the side of Jesus.

Knowing Jesus as the King of Kings is a reason to praise God in the Year of Focus.
