Bowing the Knee
Does the name of Jesus bring any comfort to your heart, or bring any thought of peace and joy? Have you bowed to the authority of that name? Be assured that everyone must bow. The Bible clearly states, “That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” (Philippians 2:10-11). If you do not bow now in this day of salvation and grace, then those rebellious, stubborn knees must bow and the tongue confess to Him at a time when there will be no pardon or mercy. Then you will be at that event described by the Apostle John:
“And I saw a great white throne, and Him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works…And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire” (Revelation 20:11-12,15).
