7 Psalm 72:11 May all kings fall down before him, all nations serve him! King David wrote many of the Psalms. Today s psalm, Psalm 72, was written by King David s son, King Solomon. King Solomon told kings to worship the King. After King David there were many, many kings throughout the Old Testament. Some of them were faithful to God, but many of them forgot to worship the King. Even if the kings were not godly and kind, the people respected and honored their king. They fell down before the king. The Epiphany season reminds us that Jesus is King. Jesus is the King of all creation. As Jesus stood before Pontius Pilate, the Roman Governor asked Jesus, Are you a king? Jesus was. The sign on the cross said, The King of the Jews. Jesus was the King who saved His people. Jesus came from the throne of heaven to hang on the cross. The King died to save the people of His kingdom. One of the favorite songs of Epiphany is We Three Kings. We don t know for sure if the visitors who followed the star to Bethlehem were kings. We don t even know if there were three special visitors. We know that they came from a great distance to see Jesus, whom they knew to be their king. Their visit fulfilled God s promise in this psalm, May all kings fall down before him. We have a king born in Bethlehem. Because Jesus came to make us His royal children, we certainly honor Him as we fall down to worship Him. We look forward to worshipping forever at the throne of our eternal King. adapted from LCMS School Ministry Chapel Talk
