In today’s message, "Who is Your King?", Pastor Martin Obono expounds on 1 Kings 8, explaining how man is essentially a servant, spiritually employed by a master.
When Jesus is your king, He gives you everything, including Himself, even to death. All other kings take away and leave those who serve them empty. Samuel sees Israel's elders' request for a king as a rejection of God, who had already planned a king for His people.
Pastor Obono goes further to draw three lessons: even with good news, go to the Lord in prayer; interrogate blessings; and recognize that it is possible to live in rebellion and prosperity at the same time.
