"That's My King!" In The Book Of Hebrews!


My King is God's final Word to His people; and though heaven and earth will pass away, His Words shall never pass away!

He's the heir of all things!
Through Him God created the world!
He's the radiance of the glory of God!
He's the exact imprint of God's nature!
He upholds the universe by the word of His power!

That's my King! I wonder if you know Him today?!

After making purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of majesty on high!
He's superior to the angels!
His name is more excellent than all the names of the most wonderful angels!
He's worshiped by angels!

In fact, angels – angels who have worshiped at the very throne room of God almighty for centuries – they long to look into the redemption which my King has accomplished for His people!

His Father says to Him: "Your throne, O God is forever and ever!"
He loves righteousness!
He hates wickedness!
He laid the foundations of the earth in the beginning!
The heavens are the work of His hands!
Heaven and earth will perish, but He will remain!
Heaven and earth will wear out like a garment, but He is the same yesterday, today, and forever!
His years have no end!

That's my King!

He's crowned with glory!
He's crowned with honor!
He tasted death for everyone!
Through death He destroyed the one who has the power of death – the Devil!
He's the deliverer of all those enslaved by fear of death!
He helps the offspring of Abraham!
He's the merciful and faithful high priest!
He's the wrath bearing sacrifice for His people!
He endured temptation that He might help those who are tempted!

That's my King! Do you know Him?!

He's the apostle and high priest of our confession!
He's absolutely faithful to God, like no other who has ever lived!
He's worthy of more glory than Moses!
He built the house, and He Who builds all things is God!
He's a great high priest Who passed through the heavens!
He sympathizes with our weakness!
He was tempted in every respect as we are, yet without sin!
He made a way for us to draw near to the throne of grace with confidence that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need!

That's my King!

He's a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek!
He offered up prayers to God with tears and loud cries and was heard because of His reverence!
He became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey Him!
He's our hope – the sure and steadfast anchor of our souls!
He entered into the inner place behind the curtain as a forerunner on our behalf to bring us back to God!
He's the King of righteousness!
He's the King of peace!
He had no beginning of days and He has no end of life!
He's the lion of the tribe of Judah, and when He roars, all the beasts of field are silent!
He became an eternal priest by the power of an indestructible life!
He introduced a better hope through which we draw near to God!
He guarantees to us a better covenant!
He holds His priesthood permanently because He continues forever!
He's able to save to the uttermost all those who draw near to God through Him!
He always lives to make intercession for all His children!

That's my King! I wonder if you know Him today?!

He's high priest!
He's holy!
He's innocent!
He's unstained!
He's separated from sinners!
He's exalted above the heavens!
He has no needs!
He has no weaknesses!
He's perfect forever!

That's my King!

He's seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven!
He's a Minister in the holy places!
His ministry is much more excellent than the old covenant!
He's the mediator of a better covenant enacted on better promises!
He entered once for all into the holy places by His own blood to secure eternal redemption!
Through the eternal Spirit He offered Himself to God without blemish!
Only His blood can purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God!
He's the mediator of a new covenant so that we may receive the promised eternal inheritance!
His death is the only death that redeems from the sins committed under the first covenant!
He entered into heaven itself in the presence of God on our behalf!
He has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself!
He will appear a second time, not to deal with sin, but to save those who are eagerly waiting for Him!

Are you eagerly waiting for Your King's return today?!

He's the reality of realities of the all the good things to come!
He came to do God's will, and He's the only One Who did it perfectly!
He offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins!
He sat down at the right hand of God!
All His enemies shall be made a footstool for His feet!
By a single offering He has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified!
He gives us confidence to enter the holy places by His own shed blood!
He opened for us a new and living way to draw near to God!
He's worthy for us to endure all manner of persecution for the sake of His name!

That's my King!

He's the founder and perfecter of our faith!
For the joy set before Him, He endured the cross!
He's seated at the right hand of the throne of God!
He endured the hostility of sinners and prevailed mightily!
His blood speaks a better word to us than the blood of Abel!
He's the same yesterday, today, and forever!
He suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people through His own blood!
He's worthy of our continual sacrifice of praise!
He's the great shepherd of the sheep!
His blood is the blood of the eternal covenant!

That's My King! Do you know Him?!

He's better than all our fathers!
He's better than all the prophets!
He's better than all the priests!
He's better than all the kings!
He's better than all the angels!
He's better than Adam!
He's better than Noah!
He's better than Job!
He's better than Abraham!
He's better than Joseph!
He's better than Moses!
He's better than Joshua!
He's better than David!
He's better than Daniel!
He's better than the best of the best and whatever is better that you can think of!
To Him be glory forever and ever!

That's my King! That's my King!

Therefore, by His grace and for His glory, let us go to our great King outside the camp and bear the reproach He endured!
