Jesus Is LORD Over All The Earth



Philippians 2:9-11 (NLT)

9 Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor
    and gave him the name above all other names,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
    in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue declare that Jesus Christ is Lord,
    to the glory of God the Father.


Acts 10:38 (AMPC)

38 How God anointed and consecrated Jesus of Nazareth with the [Holy] Spirit and with strength and ability and power; how He went about doing good and, in particular, curing all who were harassed and oppressed by [the power of] the devil, for God was with Him.



         



Isaiah 14:24-27 (NKJV)

24 The Lord of hosts has sworn, saying,
“Surely, as I have thought, so it shall come to pass,
And as I have purposed, so it shall stand:

25 That I will break the Assyrian in My land,
And on My mountains tread him underfoot.
Then his yoke shall be removed from them,
And his burden removed from their shoulders.

26 This is the purpose that is purposed against the whole earth,
And this is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.

27 For the Lord of hosts has purposed,
And who will annul it?
His hand is stretched out,
And who will turn it back?”



Isaiah 24 (NLT)

1 Look! The Lord is about to destroy the earth
    and make it a vast wasteland.
He devastates the surface of the earth
    and scatters the people.

2 Priests and laypeople,
    servants and masters,
    maids and mistresses,
    buyers and sellers,
    lenders and borrowers,
    bankers and debtors—none will be spared.

3 The earth will be completely emptied and looted.
    The Lord has spoken!

4 The earth mourns and dries up,
    and the land wastes away and withers.
    Even the greatest people on earth waste away.

5 The earth suffers for the sins of its people,
    for they have twisted God’s instructions,
violated his laws,
    and broken his everlasting covenant.

6 Therefore, a curse consumes the earth.
    Its people must pay the price for their sin.
They are destroyed by fire,
    and only a few are left alive.

7 The grapevines waste away,
    and there is no new wine.
    All the merrymakers sigh and mourn.

8 The cheerful sound of tambourines is stilled;
    the happy cries of celebration are heard no more.
    The melodious chords of the harp are silent.

9 Gone are the joys of wine and song;
    alcoholic drink turns bitter in the mouth.

10 The city writhes in chaos;
    every home is locked to keep out intruders.

11 Mobs gather in the streets, crying out for wine.
    Joy has turned to gloom.
    Gladness has been banished from the land.

12 The city is left in ruins,
    its gates battered down.

13 Throughout the earth the story is the same—
    only a remnant is left,
like the stray olives left on the tree
    or the few grapes left on the vine after harvest.

14 But all who are left shout and sing for joy.
    Those in the west praise the Lord’s majesty.

15 In eastern lands, give glory to the Lord.
    In the lands beyond the sea, praise the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.

16 We hear songs of praise from the ends of the earth,
    songs that give glory to the Righteous One!
But my heart is heavy with grief.
    Weep for me, for I wither away.
Deceit still prevails,
    and treachery is everywhere.

17 Terror and traps and snares will be your lot,
    you people of the earth.

18 Those who flee in terror will fall into a trap,
    and those who escape the trap will be caught in a snare.
Destruction falls like rain from the heavens;
    the foundations of the earth shake.

19 The earth has broken up.
    It has utterly collapsed;
    it is violently shaken.

20 The earth staggers like a drunk.
    It trembles like a tent in a storm.
It falls and will not rise again,
    for the guilt of its rebellion is very heavy.

21 In that day the Lord will punish the gods in the heavens
    and the proud rulers of the nations on earth.

22 They will be rounded up and put in prison.
    They will be shut up in prison
    and will finally be punished.

23 Then the glory of the moon will wane,
    and the brightness of the sun will fade,
for the Lord of Heaven’s Armies will rule on Mount Zion.
    He will rule in great glory in Jerusalem,
    in the sight of all the leaders of his people.


1 John 3:8 (NLT)

But when people keep on sinning, it shows that they belong to the devil,
who has been sinning since the beginning.
But the Son of God came to destroy the works of the devil.


Matthew 28:16-20 (NLT)


16 Then the eleven disciples left for Galilee, going to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him—but some of them doubted!

18 Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. 19 Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. 20 Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”


Mark 16:15-20 (NLT)

15 And then he told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone. 16 Anyone who believes and is baptized will be saved. But anyone who refuses to believe will be condemned. 17 These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe: They will cast out demons in my name, and they will speak in new languages. 18 They will be able to handle snakes with safety, and if they drink anything poisonous, it won’t hurt them. They will be able to place their hands on the sick, and they will be healed.”

19 When the Lord Jesus had finished talking with them, he was taken up into heaven and sat down in the place of honor at God’s right hand. 20 And the disciples went everywhere and preached, and the Lord worked through them, confirming what they said by many miraculous signs.
