Word 1
JESUS, THE MESSIAH & ETERNAL KING Mathew 14:1-5
• Matt 14:1 Herod The Tetrarch mentioned here is not the Herod mentioned in Mathew 2. Herod mentioned in chapter 2 was the one who slaughtered all the male children in Israel when he heard a new King had been born. The Herod referred to here is Herod Antipas, his son. Herod Antipas wasn't as bloodthirsty as his father was, but he was not a great leader in any sense of the word. He loved luxury and lived licentiously. He was reckless. History will always judge or vindicate a person. What do you want to be remembered for?

Word 2
JESUS, THE MESSIAH & ETERNAL KING Mathew 14:1-5
• Matt 14:2 Hearing of the fame of Jesus, Herod thought John the Baptist had come back from the dead. Why? His conscience was pricking him, for he was the one who had put John to death. The evil and good that men do, outlive them.

Word 3
JESUS, THE MESSIAH & ETERNAL KING Mathew 14:1-5
• Matt. 14:3-5 Herodias was Herod's brother's wife. Herod took a liking to her, got rid of his own wife, and stole her from his brother. John confronted him, saying, "This is not right. You are king of the country and in a position of authority. You can't live in this kind of immorality." Herod responded by imprisoning the bold and radical Baptist. But Mark tells us when John was in prison, Herod talked with him and began to develop a real affinity for him. Herod saw that John was a just man, a godly man, a wise man. Thus, although he felt convicted by John, he respected him.

Personal Supplication
Father, by the power of the Holy Ghost I shall be diligent on Your assignment for my life and leave the legacy of a good name in Jesus' name! Prov 22:1
A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, And loving favour rather than silver and gold.

Daily Protection Covenant Declaration
Because I dwell in the secret place of the most High, I shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
Surely he shall deliver me from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
He shall cover me with his feathers, and under his wings shall I trust: his truth shall be my shield and buckler.
I shall not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
Nor for the pestilence that walks in darkness; nor for the destruction that wastes at noonday.
A thousand shall fall at my side, and ten thousand at my right hand; but it shall not come nigh me.
Only with my eyes shall I behold and see the wicked rewarded.

Because I have made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, my habitation;
There shall no evil befall me neither shall any plague come nigh my dwelling.
For God shall give his angels charge over me, to keep me in all my ways.
They shall bear me up in their hands, lest I dash my foot against a stone.
I shall tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt I trample under feet.
Because I have set my love upon God, therefore will He deliver me: He will set me on high, because I have known His name.
I shall call upon Him, and He will answer me: He will be with me in trouble; He will deliver me, and honour me.

JESUS IS LORD!
