On Bended Knee.....

Do you remember that "love song" by Boyz2Men? You know the one, his woman left him, so now he is down on bended knee asking God what went wrong, and begging her to come back. Well, I have been think a lot about a "bended knee".

Did you know that the bible says that eventually EVERY knee will bow, and EVERY tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord?

Philippians 2
9Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
10that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.

My thoughts have been about this sort of bended knee. The idea that Every knee will bow. That tells me that if you are rejecting Jesus Christ now, that eventually you will bow down to Him. That means even the people who completely deny and reject Him, will be brought before Him at the day of judgement, and they WILL bow to Him.

Wouldn't it be so much better to be obedient to Him now a bow by our own free will? He has done so much for us, that we should be willing to bow and worship as an act of Love.
