I thought about this… God shows Himself to be God in many ways.
Philippians reminds us that eventually ‘every knee will bow to Jesus.’ Eventually God will eventually show Himself to be God to everyone!

Hmmm, that means today we still have a choice. Choose faith in God now and be saved or reject God now and bow to Him when He returns to claim allegiance as the conquering King.
Think about it…
Lord, God, I bow to You today. I give myself to You. I believe in Jesus and I will follow Him as Lord and God of my life. Amen.
