Son of God

Song: Jesus, Son of God

Matthew 17:1–8 CSB

After six days Jesus took Peter, James, and his brother John and led them up on a high mountain by themselves. He was transfigured in front of them, and his face shone like the sun; his clothes became as white as the light. Suddenly, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with him. Then Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it’s good for us to be here. I will set up three three shelters here: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” While he was still speaking, suddenly a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said: “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well-pleased. Listen to him!” When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown and were terrified. Jesus came up, touched them, and said, “Get up; don’t be afraid.” When they looked up they saw no one except Jesus alone.

Reading: A few weeks ago, we learned that Jesus is the Son of God. In the passage we just read, God Himself claims Jesus as His Son, and this fact alone shows that He is worthy of our trust. Who else has been sent from Heaven by God with such a task as dying a death he or she didn’t deserve? Who else can know God like a Son knows His Father? Who else can so accurately show us who God is? As we sing this next song, think about this question. Is Jesus high enough in your life that people see God when they see you?

Teacher

Will Follow

1 John 2:3–6 CSB

This is how we know that we know him: if we keep his commands. The one who says, “I have come to know him,” and yet doesn’t keep his commands, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoever keeps his word, truly in him the love of God is made complete. This is how we know we are in him: The one who says he remains in him should walk just as he walked.

Reading: We also learned that Jesus is a Rabbi, a teacher. In the Jewish culture, the most faithful followers of a rabbi were always recognized by how much they resembled their rabbi. The same can be said of us as we seek to follow Jesus. Followers of Jesus look like Jesus. Do you look like Jesus is your teacher? To sing this next song requires you to make a commitment to follow Jesus. See this song as a prayer between you and God.

Healer

Song: Healing is In Your Hands

Mark 2:8–12 CSB

Right away Jesus perceived in his spirit that they were thinking like this within themselves and said to them, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts? Which is easier: to say to the paralytic, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, take your mat, and walk’? But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins,”—he told the paralytic—“I tell you: get up, take your mat, and go home.” Immediately he got up, took the mat, and went out in front of everyone. As a result, they were all astounded and gave glory to God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”

Reading:

Reading: There is so much to be healed from in this world. Physical ailments. Broken Relationships. Depression. Lusts. Anger. Hatred. Sins. Jesus is the only One who can heal the deep brokenness that comes from sin. Is He your healer? When your life is eclipsed by the darkness of sin, do you depend on the Healer to heal you of those wounds?

Savior

Song: O Come to the Altar

Scripture:

Luke 19:9–10 CSB

“Today salvation has come to this house,” Jesus told him, “because he too is a son of Abraham. For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost.”

Reading:

Reading: Everyone is lost and purpose-less without a savior. Some people find direction and purpose in relationships. Others find it in substances like drugs and alcohol. Some find it in legalism. None of these things can be a real savior. They only satisfy us for a short time, then we look for something or someone else to be our savior. Jesus is the only one fit to be our Savior forever. He is the only one who can truly save us from our sins. He was sent here to seek and save the lost, you and me. Will you come to Him today? As we sing this song, several people will be standing at the back ready to talk to you about your relationship with God. Don’t miss this opportunity to get things right with your relationship with Him today.

High Priest

Song: This Glorious Grace

Hebrews 4:14–16 CSB

Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens—Jesus the Son of God—let us hold fast to our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in every way as we are, yet without sin. Therefore, let us approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in time of need.

-17

Reading: We are in desperate need of Someone to connect us to God. Because of our sin, we have no way of being in His presence, even for a second. We need a High Priest, and we have one in Jesus. He is the only one qualified because He was called by God and also became man so that He could sympathize with our own weaknesses. Jesus knows and understands God, and Jesus knows and understands you. It is by God’s grace through work and ministry of Jesus, that we can be in right relationship with Him. Let’s marvel at this grace as we sing together.

King

Song: Eternal King

Philippians 2:5–11 CSB

Adopt the same attitude as that of Christ Jesus, who, existing in the form of God, did not consider equality with God as something to be exploited. Instead he emptied himself by assuming the form of a servant, taking on the likeness of humanity. And when he had come as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death— even to death on a cross. For this reason God highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow— in heaven and on earth and under the earth— and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Scripture:

Revelation 19:11–16 CSB

Then I saw heaven opened, and there was a white horse. Its rider is called Faithful and True, and he judges and makes war with justice. His eyes were like a fiery flame, and many crowns were on his head. He had a name written that no one knows except himself. He wore a robe dipped in blood, and his name is called the Word of God. The armies that were in heaven followed him on white horses, wearing pure white linen. A sharp sword came from his mouth, so that he might strike the nations with it. He will rule them with an iron rod. He will also trample the winepress of the fierce anger of God, the Almighty. And he has a name written on his robe and on his thigh: King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

Colossians 1:15–23 CSB

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For everything was created by him, in heaven and on earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities— all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and by him all things hold together. He is also the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that he might come to have first place in everything. For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile everything to himself, whether things on earth or things in heaven. by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross Once you were alienated and hostile in your minds expressed in your evil actions. But now he has reconciled you by his physical body through his death, to present you holy, faultless, and blameless before him—if indeed you remain grounded and steadfast in the faith and are not shifted away from the hope of the gospel that you heard. This gospel has been proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and I, Paul, have become a servant of it.

Reading:

Revelation 19:11-16

Reading: It is only fitting to end this series of the titles of Jesus on King. Jesus is Lord. In fact, He is King of Kings. No one rules Him. No one tells Him what to do. Everyone, whether now or in the future, will submit to His Lordship over all of creation. There is no in between. Either you recognize or reject Him as King. Now that you know the end of the story, every knee will bow to Him, what will you do? Will you submit your life to His rule and find an abundant and purposeful life? Or will you rebel against Him and eventually be made to bend your knee to Him? The choice is yours.
