Full authority

Friends,

Every family experiences those moments of confusion as to who is really in charge. Because we are not perfect, we don't always get this right. Maybe Dad undermines Mom's rightful authority in some area... or perhaps Mom takes charge when Dad actually has the situation well in hand. Thankfully, in the family of Christ, we have can know who is our authority in every situation:

Colossians 2:9-10 NKJV
For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.

Throughout scriptures, the Lord's authority and sovereignty is declared, celebrated and verified. We can disagree, but that does not change the fact that God is in complete control of every event and happening and person and creature. He truly has full authority over all things, seen and unseen.

For us in our day-to-day lives, then, we are afforded a wonderful gift. The believer can truly be at peace, resting in the knowledge and confidence that the Good and Great King of kings is sovereign.

Be encouraged, Jose
