History

May we find what we don’t expect in pleasant surprises, grain waving on the mountaintops, lambs in the place of lions…..and all seeming to come out of nowhere.

King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon referred to himself as the king of kings. This title was only later applied to Jesus. When Nebuchadnezzar acknowledged the true God hundreds of years before the birth of the Messiah, he was slow to give up his prized title, so he called God the “Lord of Kings.” But we know who is the true King of Kings!

When Peter (Jude also) in his epistles greets the reader with. “peace is being multiplied to you,” he is using an ancient greeting also used by King Nebuchadnezzar and even Darius of Persia in their written decrees. Peter, you see, knew he was a king himself and a priest in a spiritual kingdom. He too had the power of royal decree, as do we, but from the King of Kings and His word alone.
