Confessing Jesus as Lord Through Your Life
What does it really mean to confess Jesus as Lord—not simply with our lips, but with our whole lives?
In John 3, Nicodemus comes to Jesus under the cover of darkness, searching for answers, and Jesus confronts him with a truth that reaches far deeper than religious knowledge...we must be born again. To confess Jesus as Lord is to surrender our whole lives to His rule and reign allowing the King to transform our hearts, reshape our desires, and direct the way we live. And this matters because disciples of Jesus are called to be good news people wherever they go as they go. The reign of Jesus should be visible through the way we love, serve, forgive, welcome, speak, and live. Like Nicodemus, we are invited to move from simply knowing about Jesus to being transformed by Him, so that the kingdom we confess with our mouths is the kingdom we embody with our lives. The question is not only, “Do I believe Jesus is Lord?” but, “Does His lordship shape the way I live and do the people around me encounter something of His good news through me?”
Looking forward to seeing you Sunday!
