THE LORDSHIP OF CHRIST
by David Wilkerson
[May 19, 1931 - April 27, 2011]
Those who submit to Christ's lordship have an increase of strength and
knowledge of Him. They literally gain a new mental and physical strength. They
do not faint along the way because Jesus pours His own strength into them as
they go.
"For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for
you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in
all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that ye might walk worthy of the Lord
unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the
knowledge of God; strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power,
unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness" (Colossians 1:9-11).
God will keep those who submit to His lordship blameless to the day of Christ's
coming. If we submit to Jesus—doing as He commands, not leaning on our own
understanding—we will never lack anything. He will supply everything we need
to please Him. The Lord Himself will hold and keep us blameless to the very
end!
"That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all
knowledge; even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you: so that ye
come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ: who
shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our
Lord Jesus Christ. God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship
of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord" (1Corinthians 1:5-9).
We are to entrust our lives into Jesus' care. It then becomes His
responsibility to hold and keep us: "The Lord is faithful, who shall stablish
you, and keep you from evil" (2 Thessalonians 3:3). He says, "If you keep Me
enthroned on your heart, I'll keep you blameless until My coming. I'll keep you
from falling!" "Commit the keeping of [your] souls to him in well-doing, as unto
a faithful Creator" (1 Peter 4:19).
