Can meekness and majesty exist together in the same person? Amazingly, those wonderful virtues co-existed in the God-man Jesus.
First, He was humble and meek. He didn't insist on luxury nor seek for the possession of material things. In fact, He didn't own or possess any property except for the clothes He wore. Compared to our day of investment portfolios, luxury homes, and platinum visa cards, Jesus was "dirt poor."
In terms of pursuing fame and glory, He walked away from more crowds than He called together. He was the leader, but He knelt to wash the feet of His disciples (Jh.13). In all things He humbly submitted to his Father's will.
Yet, with such beautiful humility, there was also an awesome majesty about Jesus. One word or one look from Jesus could quiet a crowd, calm a storm, or make a disciple weep. Thousands followed Him as He lived and taught with unequaled power and authority. Although He died bearing our sin and shame, He rose from the grave in glory. One day He will return in majesty as King of kings and Lord of lords, vanquishing His foes and judging the nations.
How are we to respond? Worship Him. Honor Him. Love Him. Obey Him. For He alone is worthy of all our devotion and all our praise.
