Cast Your CrownSample
Before His Throne
“The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,” Revelation 4:10 KJV
Revelation 4:10-11 AMPC puts it this way, ”The twenty-four elders (the members of the heavenly Sanhedrin) fall prostrate before Him Who is sitting on the throne, and they worship Him Who lives forever and ever; and they throw down their crowns before the throne, crying out, “Worthy are You, our Lord and God, to receive the glory and the honor and dominion, for You created all things; by Your will they were [brought into being] and were created.”
All authority bows to Him. All powers, dominions, and authority—across all ages of the world—bows to Him. All kings bow to Him. All kingdoms submit to Him. All of Heaven bows to Christ and the twenty-four elders lay prostrate (full submission) at His feet and surrender their crowns before His throne forever. Choose to forever lay your crown at His throne. Fully submit your gifts, talents, abilities, influence, and authority at His throne. Surrender to Christ. Surrender to His throne.
Colossians 1:16 KJV declares, “For by him were all things created that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him and for him:” All authority submits to Christ. Psalms 24:1 KJV declares, “The earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.” Everything and everyone in the Earth belongs to Christ. All authority and power belongs to and bows to Christ.
Every age surrenders to Him. Revelation 1:8 KJV declares, “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” He is Alpha and Omega. He is the Beginning and the Ending. He occupies all space and time—all at the same time. He is all-powerful. He is all-knowing. There is no one like Him.
About this Plan
We are not to worship or exalt our gifts, talents, abilities, and skills. We are to worship and honor Christ through our gifts. We are to bow to Him, for He has created all things, and all things were created for His pleasure. Let Christ lead your heart as you read this timely message.
