Allegiance

Isaiah 45:21-23 ESV

Declare and present your case; let them take counsel together! Who told this long ago? Who declared it of old? Was it not I, the LORD? And there is no other god besides me, a righteous God and a Savior; there is none besides me.  "Turn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other.   By myself I have sworn; from my mouth has gone out in righteousness a word that shall not return: 'To me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear allegiance.'

Philippians 2:5-11 ESV

Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

If A=B and B=C, then A=C, and Jesus Christ is LORD (Yahweh).

Heavenly Father, I praise you because you are the only God. Lord Jesus, I praise you because you are God, and I confess my allegiance to you. Holy Spirit, I believe that, mysteriously, you exist in harmony with the Father and the Son, and I am thankful for your presence in my spirit.  May you be exalted through my life today, and may your lordship and deity be apparent.  I love you, and I ask in the name of Jesus.
