The Supremacy of Christ: Above Angels and All Creation

Daily Devotional in Grow with Him

"The Supremacy of Christ: Above Angels and All Creation"

Beloved in Christ,

The opening chapter of Hebrews presents a compelling argument for the supremacy and divinity of Christ, setting Him apart from angels and all of creation. The writer quotes a series of Old Testament passages to establish that Jesus is not just another angelic being but the Son of God, co-equal and co-eternal with the Father.

Scripture Reading: Hebrews 1:5-14 (KJV)

"For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him. And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail. But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?"

This is not just theological information; it's transformational truth. Understanding the supremacy of Christ affects how we approach God, how we read Scripture, and how we live our lives. If Christ is supreme, then He deserves our utmost devotion, obedience, and worship.

As you go about your day, let this truth anchor your soul. In a world that often elevates created things above the Creator, let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who is above all and in all.

In the grace of our Lord,
