“Thy testimonies are wonderful; therefore doth my soul keep them.” Psalm 119:129

There is something about the Lord Jesus which is altogether more than his work. He is himself a testimony to the nature of God. He is the only One who could say, “I delight to do thy will, O my God.” That is why God has entrusted the outworking of the eternal purpose to him.

How, then, do we bear testimony? By putting the Lord Jesus in the central and supreme place. Of course he will be supreme in the kingdom of God that is to come, but we must not wait for everything to happen then. The faithful witness to God’s kingdom is careful to give Christ that place of supremacy here and now.
