Hallelujah the Lord is King

 

HALLELUJAH THE LORD IS KING!  We have a righteous King - the Lord - who loves and cares for us all. He wants us to have joy, peace, and love in our lives. Jesus Christ gave us life through the Atonement.

By his example he showed us the way that we can live.
We become the sons and daughters of God as we live His commandments and change our lives.

 Mosiah 5:7 And now, because of the covenant which ye have made ye shall be called the children of Christ, his sons, and his daughters; for behold, this day he hath spiritually begotten you; for ye say that your hearts are changed through faith on his name; therefore, ye are born of him and have become his sons and his daughters.

As we strive to learn and become like him, it is inevitable that we change and grow closer to God and His son, Jesus christ.
     As we put our trust in him, we are changed through faith on His name.

 Alma 36:3 And now, O my son Helaman, behold, thou art in thy youth, and therefore, I beseech of thee that thou wilt hear my words and learn of me; for I do know that whosoever shall put their trust in God shall be supported in their trials, and their troubles, and their afflictions, and shall be lifted up at the last day.

We are to put trust in the Lord and He will support us in our trials. He does this through the Atonement.

 Alma34:15-17 And thus he shall bring salvation to all those who shall believe on his name; this being the intent of this last sacrifice, to bring about the bowels of mercy, which overpowereth justice, and bringeth about means unto men that they may have faith unto repentance.

 16 And thus mercy can satisfy the demands of justice, and encircles them in the arms of safety, while he that exercises no faith unto repentance is exposed to the whole law of the demands of justice; therefore only unto him that has faith unto repentance is brought about the great and eternal plan of redemption.

 17 Therefore may God grant unto you, my brethren, that ye may begin to exercise your faith unto repentance, that ye begin to call upon his holy name, that he would have mercy upon you.

As we have faith in Him, He will have mercy on us. As we strive to live the commandments of God, change daily towards Jesus Christ and God, and use the Atonement of Jesus Christ, we become closer to the Lord. And truly then, we become his son and daughters.
