Lord Of My Life - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]

The song "Lord of My Life" by The Belonging Co. is a beautiful testament to the sovereignty of God in our lives. It echoes the sentiments found in Psalm 37:23-24, "The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him; though he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand." The lyrics of the song and this verse both acknowledge that while we may stumble in life, we will not fall because God is holding us up. 

The song also resonates with the words of Apostle Paul in Philippians 4:4, "Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!" This verse is mirrored in the song's lyrics, "And even in trial, I’ll count it as joy, To say it again and again." Both the song and the scripture emphasize the importance of rejoicing in the Lord, regardless of our circumstances. 

The bridge of the song, "Every knee will bow, Every tongue confess... But I get to seek You now, Lord Jesus," is a powerful reminder of Philippians 2:10-11, "That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." The song and the scripture both affirm the ultimate authority of Jesus and the joy of seeking Him now, before His glorious return.

The song concludes with a refrain that invites Jesus to take His place in our lives. This is a beautiful reflection of the sentiment expressed in Revelation 3:20, "Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me." The song and the scripture both invite Jesus to take His rightful place in our lives, acknowledging His lordship and our need for His presence.

As we listen to this song and reflect on these scriptures, we are reminded of the sovereignty of God, the joy of His presence, and the anticipation of His return. We are encouraged to invite Him into every aspect of our lives, acknowledging Him as the Lord of our lives.

So, here's a thought to ponder: How are we actively inviting Jesus to take His place in our lives? Are we acknowledging Him as the Lord of our lives in our daily actions, decisions, and attitudes? Let's take some time to reflect on this and consider how we can more fully surrender to His lordship in our lives.
