Who do you bow before?
Ezra 9:7 (ESV) From the days of our fathers to this day we have been in great guilt. And for our iniquities we, our kings, and our priests have been given into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, to plundering, and to utter shame, as it is today.
Whose hand will we be under?
Someone will rule over us. We choose whether it is God or the “kings” of the land.
Our “kings” are often different, our peer groups, family members, religious assembly, co-workers. . .
But we can be free no matter our social or political environment if we bow before the right Person.
