Reflection on “Reign Jesus Reign”
The world we live in is often messy and broken. We see injustice, suffering, and the forces of darkness seemingly holding sway.
Today, we are reminded that Jesus Christ is not an ordinary figure, but a reigning King, actively working behind the scenes to bring about His perfect will.
When Matthew 6:10 says:
Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
We see the focus on God’s will and reign being established here on earth.
One day, all earthly kingdoms will crumble, and Jesus’ reign will be fully realized. But even now, He invites us to submit to His Lordship, to live our lives in line with His teachings, and to be ambassadors of His kingdom here on earth.
Reign Jesus reign is a present reality that shapes our worldview. When we surrender our lives to Christ, we become part of His kingdom, aligning ourselves with His purposes and principles.
We live with the hope that one day, Jesus will return and establish His reign definitively, ushering in a new heaven and a new earth (Revelation 21:1).
This doesn’t mean we should passively wait for Jesus’ return. The Bible calls us to be active participants in His kingdom work, for we know not when we will be called home.
In Philippians 2:9-11, we are again reminded that every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
Today, let us reflect on the implications of Christ’s reign in our lives.
