December 13, 2025 – No Duplex for a Throne

Sermon: 1946 Lordship of Christ, Part 2

Pray Over This

“Then Jesus said to His disciples, ‘If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?’”

Matthew 16:24-26

Ponder This

There can be no other king in your life. No man can serve two masters. Jesus will not be a moonlighting King, a part-time King with a duplex for a throne. It has been said well, “He must be Lord of all if He is to be Lord at all.”

What a person does with his or her possessions is a good mark as to whether Jesus Christ is Lord of that person’s life. He is Lord of all. He doesn’t just own 10 percent; He owns everything you have! When you give what God has laid on your heart, that’s only a tangible expression of the fact that He owns it all.

You’re saying, “Lord, this gift is a tangible, visible expression of my total surrender to You. This gift represents my brains, my blood, my ability, my time, and my intellect. That’s what it took to get this. And when I return this to You, it only illustrates that it all belongs to You, and that I am Your steward.”
