Confession Above
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
To All the Saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi 2:9-11
You know, there is an exaltation that follows. Perhaps it is just as unto the Lord though of this you can be sure that it is not men in the frame. We have our own place do not we, our rightful position given us from above. For some it is just merely that of when he ascended on high he led captivity captive and gave gifts to all men or as being borne from his love. Though you would notice that our God first of all has fulfilled all the rites of his office. He is sitting down if you will in Heavenly places there on his throne having gone back to reclaim what was his from the beginning of time. Thus, if he has been exalted once then, it is only because of his position that we see thus rightly put together and fashioned before our good Lord. You know, how often would the Father have gathered us as a mother hen gathers her chicks under her wings but we would not and is not that all humanities problem. With certainty the name he has been given was his all along. Time thusly put means nothing when it comes before our good Lord. He was there in the beginning with all of creation and he will be there on the day he calls us back home unto him. We might be a nation of kings and priests meant to rule and reign with him there in the end but we do not see it just yet. That is because God as with Lazarus had to call some things from where men had laid them whether in the tombs of others or just of their own making. When he though calls time down here below it is so that we can bear witness to his power and glory and share with him all eternity. He is the God is he not who was and is and is to come that none might think themselves overmuch something. Certainly not as far as he is concerned, as Lord over all thusly appearing. We would bow before him there who makes all our days as praise to his Son. Sure, there is some that would not want to be bothered and some too that would not understand as unto him. Though when our God rewrites all the stories of men, whether in judgement or retelling, or making them plain there will be none who do not wish to exalt him time and again. It is a tall order is not it coming from those who do not know him as well as they probably should. This is his specialty is it not that before Adam, Abraham or any of the forefathers he was there once again. Truly, we cannot help but to say as with the servant that this was the Son of God whether at the cross in his death, the life that he lived, or returning of all things back to him. It is enough to make the hardest heart tremble and the softer ones beginning to quake. Some have once said that the knees will not want to bow before him but they would be compelled in the light of his glory. Though if those were unwilling, not that God is in the habit of forcing his children or extorting praise from creation, but there are some tongues also much disused and not used to much speaking. When it comes on down to it , the praise of the Father is all that is appearing. Though as Scripture has said, confession is made unto salvation and whether that means a free pass into Heaven or that acknowledgement will be made in the end is only up to our Father above who rewrites all things as after his love. Though of this you can be sure that his love is just there no matter how you find yourself, when, or of where.
