Christ the King Sunday is about a seemingly powerless Messiah hanging on the cross; yet these lyrics reveal a mystery: “Love crucified, arose and the grave became a place of hope” (Michael Card). The resurrection established the eternal dynasty when God vindicated Jesus by raising him from the dead. The resurrection displays God’s power over hatred and death (Luke 1:67-79; 23:33-38).
Through the resurrection of Jesus God shows us a kingdom not based upon retaliation, smashing the competition, or even militarily defeating the enemy; rather, through Jesus God shows us a kingdom based upon humility, truth, kindness, compassion, forgiveness, love, and compassion. A type of kingdom no one expected – not even today! May our lives, our attitudes, and our actions not betray the kingdom of God.
Let us pray that all God’s people become more like Christ our King: God our Father, lover of people, we recognize our King crowned with thorns and enthroned on a cross. This King is our leader without an army or earthly might. Like him, may we choose love and compassion as our only power and humble service as our only greatness. May this be the way his kingdom grows within us and among us until you lead us unto your lasting joy. We ask you this through Christ our Lord who eternally dwells with you and the Holy Spirit, One God, now and forever. Amen.
