Christ’s Supreme Authority

February 7

"He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power."

(Hebrews 1:3)

When we look at Jesus, we see the fullness of God revealed. He is not just a messenger or a great teacher—He is the radiance of God’s glory, shining forth the very essence of who God is. In Him, we see God’s love, grace, justice, holiness, and power made visible.

This verse also reminds us of Christ’s supreme authority. He not only created the universe but upholds all things by the power of His word. This means that your life with all of its struggles are not beyond His care. He is able to hold you together just as He holds the entire universe in place.

When we feel weak, lost, or overwhelmed, we can rest in the truth that Jesus is the exact representation of God the Father. If we want to know what God is like, we look to Jesus. If we want to know how deeply we are loved, we look to Jesus. If we need strength to move forward, we rely on the power of His word, which sustains us in all things.

How does knowing that Jesus upholds all things bring you peace? In what areas of your life do you need to trust in His sustaining power?

Jesus, You are the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His nature. Thank You for revealing the Father to us and for holding all things together, including my life. Help me to trust in Your sustaining power, knowing that You are in control. Strengthen my faith as I look to You each day. In Your holy name, Amen.
