The Victorious King Jesus Can and Will Save You

“The Lord builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the outcasts of Israel. 

and

He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.”

Psalms 147:2-3 ESV

God's work is about restoring and healing. He has a plan for the nations and he has a plan for individual souls. 

“At that time Jesus declared, "I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to little children; yes, Father, for such was your gracious will. All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."”
Matthew 11:25-30 ESV

GENTLE AND LOWLY IN HEART

“And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.” Psalms 9:10 ESV

“The afflicted shall eat and be satisfied; those who seek him shall praise the Lord! May your hearts live forever!” Psalms 22:26 ESV

“The earth is the Lord 's and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein, for he has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the rivers. Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord? And who shall stand in his holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to what is false and does not swear deceitfully. He will receive blessing from the Lord and righteousness from the God of his salvation. SUCH IS THE GENERATION OF THOSE WHO SEEK HIM, WHO SEEK THE FACE OF THE GOD OF JACOB Selah. Lift up your heads, O gates! And be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is this King of glory? The Lord, strong and mighty, the Lord, mighty in battle! Lift up your heads, O gates! And lift them up, O ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory! Selah”
Psalms 24:1-10 ESV

All the enemies of God oppose his Lordship and his plan of Salvation for the world, which is very good, and God has already won through Jesus Christ. 

It's a good day to place our trust and hope in the King of Glory. He is Jesus Christ.
