The 1,000 Year Reign Of Christ - Part Two

We started a new series last week and learned when the 1,000 Year Reign Of Jesus Christ starts after the Tribulation Period there will be True Peace on earth and Jehovah God will live among His People. This week we will look at how and why Jesus is entitled to reign on earth.

Even before Jesus was born there were prophetic messages predicting that He will rule and reign not only over Israel but over the whole earth. Isaiah 9:6 says, "For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder." Additionally, Luke 1:30-33 says, "Then the angel said to her, 'Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name Jesus. He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His Father David. And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever and of His kingdom there will be no end.'" These verses illustrate that the day is coming  when the government of the world will be on the shoulders of Jesus.

How is Jesus entitled to rule the whole world? God ordained it plus Jesus is in the lineage of Abraham and King David. In fact, when we look at the genealogy of Jesus as outlined in Matthew Chapter one we learn Jesus is the Son of David and the Son of Abraham. Jehovah God says to Abraham in Genesis 17:6 "I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of You and kings shall come from You." God was saying kings will come through Abraham - David and Jesus.

In closing, we will look at how Jehovah God places Jesus on the Throne of David. Jehovah God said about Jesus in Matthew 22:44, "Sit at My right hand, till I make Your enemies Your footstool." As a result, Jesus has been sitting at God's Right Hand ever since ever interceding for all the saints. {Hebrews 7:25.} 

We have learned  previously that Jesus arrives on a White Horse and defeats Satan and his armies during the Battle of Armageddon. {Revelation19:11-16.} On His robe is written: KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS. JESUS WILL BE KING OVER ALL THE EARTH DURING HIS 1,000 YEAR REIGN! 

May The Lord Bless You And Keep You In His Care,
