Good Morning “Examples”. Today we are in Psalm 61.
Here David sings about God’s help in times of weakness. He prayed, “Lead me to the rock that is higher than I, for you are my refuge, a strong tower against the enemy. Man, I know this Psalm has to remind you of at least a couple worship songs we sing.
David also prayed that his reign and throne would “endure to all generations,” a prayer that was answered when Jesus was crowned the Eternal King.
Guess what? You don’t have to be an earthly king or descended from royalty to pray this same prayer.
If you know Jesus you are a child of King (John 1:12) and will “reign” with Jesus. Check out 2 Timothy 2:11-12a “The saying is trustworthy, for: If we have died with Him [Jesus], we will also live with Him. If we endure, we will also reign with Him…”
Jesus secure’s our souls and we’ll be glorified to reign in Heaven. Additionally, our children have a chance to reign along side us. It was David’s prayer that his family would reign forever, and he set a good example for them - pointing them to God.
As parents, grandparents, and future parents, we are an example for our children. The Truth is we are an example for all who look on (2 Corinthians 5:20). The question is… what kind? Are we pointing them to the rock that is higher than us? Are we teaching them that they too can reign with Jesus if they love dwelling in the tent of God more than the palaces of men? If we aren’t - we should be! We’re talking about FOREVER! What’s more important than that?
Love you all! Dig in!
