He is appointed heir of all things.

He is appointed heir of all things.

The Bible daily by disciple John

Hebrews 2:9 
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.

The early chapters of Hebrews exalt Lord Jesus both as creator and God who is worshiped by the angels and has words that we should hear what he is saying that are important for the saving of our souls. Also it says in our text that he was made lower then the angels so that He could take our punishment on Himself.

We should remember and compare the above text with this:
Hebrews 1:1-2 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds.

God the Son who created the planets, every star in space. The earth, the sun and the moon. He is the great I AM who shows us how much we are loved by God. He who was without sin made Himself lower then angels so He could take the punishment for our sin. Let us grasp this truth and remember what they mean to us.

Prayer: Almighty God how can we ever praise you enough for what you have done for us through your divine plan of the sacrifice of your son to pay the price for our sin. Lord Jesus Christ we exalt you and proclaim you are worthy for every knee to bow to you. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
