Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. (Isaiah 9:7)  

I’m not really a fan of big government.  I would just as soon that the government leave me alone for the most part.

But His government?  I’m all in.

I’ve said before that the best form of government is a benevolent dictatorship.  Because of sin, that kind of rule is not possible for any length of time.

Outside of Christ.

One day Jesus will rule here on Earth in the flesh.  His reign will go on and on and just get better and better.

Until then, we can know his government in our hearts and lives.

If you belong to Jesus, his peace, his power, his rule in your life is growing each day.  Oh, you may not feel it all the time, but it’s happening.

Chew on this today: are you allowing Christ to govern your life, or are you getting in his way?

Happy Monday, Beloved
