When God Became Man

 Many men have tried to become God.

Only one God became man.

Not to conquer.

But to serve.

Not to be worshiped.

But to bleed.

The Pharaohs built empires.

Caesars claimed divinity.

Dictators demanded worship.

But only Jesus Christ—

“the Word made flesh”—

humbled Himself to be rejected by the world He made.

“He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

He came unto his own, and his own received him not.”

(John 1:10-11, KJV)

He did not cling to His throne.

He descended.

Put on flesh.

Walked among traitors.

Died for them.

“Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant…”

(Philippians 2:6-7, KJV)

That’s not weakness.

That’s the highest authority wrapped in humility.

And one day?

“At the name of Jesus every knee should bow… and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.”

(Philippians 2:10-11, KJV)

Don’t bow later.

Bow now.

Before the God who became a man—

So you could become a son.
