Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Dear Father, I join Paul in giving honor and glory forever to Christ Jesus: the King Eternal, Immortal, Invisible, the Only God! What a powerful testimony of the limitless sovereignty of the eternal King and Ruler of the entire universe! I magnify Him that He has always been King of All, He is King now, and He will be King for all eternity. Hallelujah, that He fulfills many of the Psalms, including Psalm 10:16a: “The Lord is King for ever and ever.” I am in awe that while all other kings have died, the King Eternal, Immortal lives forever and is worshipped and honored forever! I marvel that this is another evidence of what Paul says in Colossians 1:15, that Christ bears the full “image of the Invisible God.” I am excited for the additional confirmation of the divinity of Christ in John 1:18, “No one has ever seen God, but the One and Only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.” I pray that You will fill me and multitudes of other believers with the same over-whelming gratitude for our salvation as Paul had, so that we too will speak with all of our hearts of the patience, love, mercy, majesty, beauty and power of the King Eternal, Immortal, Invisible, the Only God. I pray these things in the merciful name of Christ our King. Amen.
