Unto You, Part 18: Unto Us Came the Triumphant King
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow
Praise is the heart’s celebration of the victory that Jesus Christ has won. He faced Satan and defeated him, He faced temptation and resisted it, He faced suffering and overcame it, He faced death and defeated it, and He faced the grave and triumphed over it.
Once Jesus was wrapped in swaddling clothes lying in a manager—now He is seated on a throne. Once rulers rejected him—now He is at His Father’s right hand. Once He was despised and rejected—now He is exalted and glorified. Once He was the suffering servant—now He is the triumphant King.
Jesus Christ is the only one worthy of all praise. There is no name that is higher than His, there is no throne that is greater than His, and there is no kingdom that is mightier than His. He is worthy because His righteousness is indisputable, His redemptive work is irrefutable, His glory is incomparable, and His majesty is undeniable.
