Unto us a (Royal) child is born, to us a son is given.

I rejoice in the birth of The Royal Baby. Obviously I’m pleased for the couple and that mother and child are doing well. But I rejoice because it speaks – to me – of another birth. What exactly is everyone expecting of this new baby? I really can’t imagine. Will he live up to these expectations? The Queen will be able to rest easy now (as it were) in the knowledge that the Royal succession is assured. The Royal watchers will have their fill and thrill as they gush over this little one. Many will fawn and bow before this child.

But in a secular United Kingdom King Jesus is just as despised as He has ever been – maybe more so. And I find the silence of the Queen on many issues tied to her duty to protect the faith deafening and disappointing – but not at all surprising.

What will happen to the baby of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, no-one knows except the one from above who is over all.

There is a longing, an expectation for a Righteous Ruler in the hearts of men & women as we ever walk in darkness. Ministers & government officials will pour on the accolades but there will be none for Jesus. Jesus is still despised & rejected. Yet, King Jesus will not disappoint, King Jesus will exceed all our expectations for the Government of the whole world is on His Holy shoulders.

It is at the feet of Jesus we should fall. At the name of Jesus everyone will bow! Including all those that despise Him now. And Yet – everyone who calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved – call upon Jesus for Salvation today. Salvation is found only in Jesus.

See here in Isaiah 9: 2 – 7

2 The people who walked in darkness
have seen a great light;
those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness,
on them has light shone.

3 You have multiplied the nation;
you have increased its joy;
they rejoice before you
as with joy at the harvest,
as they are glad when they divide the spoil.

4 For the yoke of his burden,
and the staff for his shoulder,
the rod of his oppressor,
you have broken as on the day of Midian.

5 For every boot of the tramping warrior in battle tumult
and every garment rolled in blood
will be burned as fuel for the fire.

6 For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given;
and the government shall be upon[d] his shoulder,
and his name shall be called[e]
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

7 Of the increase of his government and of peace
there will be no end,
on the throne of David and over his kingdom,
to establish it and to uphold it
with justice and with righteousness
from this time forth and forevermore.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.
