Kiss the Son

Really, is there anything sweeter than a kiss? Shh - don't tell Mr Bill - but I'm pretty sure I love kisses from the Grands best.  In Psalm 2, David speaks of surrounding nations which threaten his earthly kingdom and rightful heirs to Israel's throne: "Why are the nations in an uproar [in turmoil against God], and why do the people devise a vain and hopeless plot?" (Psalm 2:1). His quandary, of course, goes much deeper!  The Davidic kingdom [we know] is a mere shadow of the Kingdom and King yet to come - the Messiah, the Christ. The assault of evil against David and his kingdom is similar to the hostile days in which we live [today]. At every turn, it seems, true Christianity is found on the public chopping block and fair game for mockery and disqualification. Let us be encouraged: God says, "I have anointed and firmly installed My King ... Worship the LORD and serve Him with reverence ... Rejoice with trembling ... Kiss the Son ... How blessed are all those who take refuge in Him." (V.6, 10, 11, 12). Everyone is presented with a clear choice now.  The present and eternal spiritual blessings and prosperity must keep us faithful.  Make it a way of life: Kiss The Son!
