The King
As we ponder these verses, I would encourage you to get a sweet and precious glimpse of Jesus. May that insight provoke in you a desire to magnify your Lord and Savior. As exhorted in the text, may we be moved to glorify the King.

John the Baptist said that Jesus must increase while he must decrease. May I submit that while that be true in John's ministry comparison, practically speaking, it is true for every one of us who profess to be a Christian. Our lives should be more about Jesus and less about ourselves.
Some people have a goodly disposition while others possess a bad spirit. The Christians prefers the goodly. However, don't you find yourself, on occasion, of having a bad spirit? Don't we discover that too often we have a bad attitude? I thought it well to consider this topic.
If a person is blind, the letters could be huge, but he/she must have sight before they can see. If a person is deaf, you can speak as loud as you wish, but he/she must have hearing before they can hear. Simply, we can try to force or "make" someone to be saved, but until there is a change, it cannot be done. Like the deaf, there is no need to yell.
