In that day the LORD Almighty will be a glorious crown, a beautiful wreath for the remnant of his people. He will be a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, a source of strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate. Isaiah 28:5-6"The Lord is our crown, our treasure, our everything... Jesus came at Christmas, took one look at our shabby lives, and decided to put a crown on our heads, His crown, His own royal nature... Jesus is our treasure, but Jesus the Treasure turns right around and makes us His Treasure. He has a royal crown, He’s the King of Kings as you’ll hear, but Jesus turns around and crowns us with His royalty, beauty, and holiness." Pastor Ben Squires blog (which I randomly came as I researched this verse.)
I'm not sure I've stumbled across this verse before. This is a neat image for me to dwell on. God is a Glorious Crown for His people.
Thanks Lord for crowning Your children with royalty, beauty and holiness. Thank you for sending Jesus to be our Glorious Crown. Amen.
