Lord
“Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am” (John 13:13).
Have you ever truly owned Jesus as your Lord? I’m not asking you if you know Jesus as your Savior, but do you know Him as the Lord and Master of your life? Do you seek His direction in everything you do? It is a good practice to get up every morning and say “Yes Lord.” If we do this, then the Lord wants to guide us and direct our footsteps in every detail of life. Abraham had a servant who could say, “I being in the way, the Lord led me” (Genesis 24:27). Solomon said: “In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and he shall direct thy paths” (Proverbs 3:6). “Thomas … said unto Him, My Lord and my God” (John 20:28). Saul of Tarsus asked, “Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?” The answer from the Lord Himself was, “It shall be told thee what thou must do” (Acts 9:6).
Yes, He wants to be more than just our Savior and provider, He wants to be our Lord. He has every right to have full control in every aspect of our life. “For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s” (1 Corinthians 6:20).
