The only wise thing to do in the light of the truth we have considered in the previous verses is to yield to Christ. Man's rebellion will not and can not succeed.

God's response to man's rebellion declares this to be so.

The foundations of Christ's throne likewise shows that His kingdom may not be toppled. He is God's Son and the heir to an inheritance promised to Him in His Father's decree. By asking He obtains that inheritance.

All the resistance of man cannot stop that happening. Those that would stand in the way of Him claiming His inheritance shall be broken like a piece of brittle pottery when it is struck with a rod of iron.

Therefore, submission in faith and repentance is the only course that may rightly be called wise.

In these verses an invitation to submit to Christ is issued.
