Who is on the Throne of Your Life?
“…that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth.”
Philippians 2:10

Ponder This
Do you want kingdom authority? Would you like for God to be pouring His life and His strength into you? That authority is not for rebels. You will never be over until you’re under; you must come under the absolute lordship of Jesus Christ and not be ashamed of that. If one day every tongue will confess Him and every knee will bow, now is the time to begin. Now is the time to have a coronation of Jesus in our lives.
In every person’s heart and life, there’s a throne. If self is on the throne, Christ is on the cross. If self is on the cross, Christ is on the throne. Today is the day to put Him on the throne of your life. And then, when it’s time to die and those chilly waters of death start to come around your feet, you will be able to say, “Jesus Christ is Lord.” And when the trumpet sounds, the graves give up their dead, the sky is split asunder, and the Lord Jesus comes in all of His glory, we will rise in the resurrection and say, “Jesus Christ is Lord.”

Front Porch Moments by Gayle Foster
WITH KEY INSIGHTS FROM HER FATHER, ADRIAN ROGERS
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
