Most of us have no understanding of what it is like to live in a monarchy. We have not lived in a country where a king or queen is the dominating ruler. Even England is not the monarchy it once was. They have a parliament that passes laws.
We especially do not know what it is like to live under a dictator. There are a handful of countries today who have dictators. So, we may be able to get a glimpse of living under a dictator, but in no way can we fully understand it.
Yet, we will live under a monarchy one day. When Jesus returns and institutes His kingdom forever with a new heaven and new earth, we will know what it is like to live, not only under a monarchy, but a good King—a King of kings. It is in His kingdom that we will see the fullness of God’s justice.
Not only will He bring justice to its fullness, but He will also be our protector and provider. We will live without fear, worry, frustration, anxiety, anger, hatred, and any other form of evil. His kingdom will be full of love, joy, wholeness, peace, honor, glory, praise, and everything Godly. In the prophecy Isaiah speaks, he points to the Messianic kingdom to come. We must keep the kingdom of God at the forefront of our minds.
I pray we all know that Jesus will return to institute His kingdom. I pray we understand that He will be the good King, the King of kings. I pray each one of us remember each day that God has a plan, and the final implementation of his kingdom will come with Jesus reigning as the Righteous King. Jesus will return. Jesus is the good King. Jesus is the King of kings. Jesus is the Righteous King.
Isaiah 32:1
See, a king will reign in righteousness,
and princes will rule with justice.
