Good Morning children of
God!! Aren’t we a highly bunch of
blessed folks? I realize that I have
lived in the United States, for my entire life, and have not suffered like some
Christians have. The Apostle Paul spent a lot of time in dungeon prison cells,
and our Father still placed a blessing on him, where he could write, sing,
worship, and praise. You might be saying something like this; oh that was Paul,
and he was different, than the rest of us.
You are right, because Paul
was different. All the disciples were different. Every person, whom the Lord blessed,
in the word of God, was different. In the same sense, they all had something
strangely in common. They every one of them that, believed on the Lord, and
accepted His way, as the only way of life. God approached each one of them, as
He does, each one of us. The only difference was that they said yes, to our
God. They said yes to his way of life.
We were all created different
from one another. We all have different ways of looking at things, and the way
that we receive things. Even as many differences, as there are in each one of
us, we were all created with something in common with each other. There seems
to be a hole in the center of our being, which only one item will fit in, and
fill completely. The truth is that our
creator left that space inside of us, that only a relationship with Him could
fill.
That is amazing that, our
creator left out, the main ingredient, for true happiness, in our life. The
only thing that will ever cause total fulfillment and peace, in our life is a
relationship, with our Father of our creation. There is a problem with our
Creator accepting us. He will not accept those that have sin, on their lives.
The major problem is that, we are all guilty of having sin, in our lives.
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the
glory of God;
Isn’t there anything that we
can do, to get back to the Father?
Yes there is, and it is as simple as a blood sacrifice. There is a catch to this sacrifice. It has to
pass through some tough requirements to meet the qualifications, of the Father.
The first qualification is that is has to be willing to be a blood sacrifice.
To be a blood sacrifice means that you will have to die in order to save those
that are not worthy themselves. There is one more qualification, that the blood
that is shed can’t be tainted with sin. It will take a willing, sinless,
sacrifice to satisfy the Father, and bring us back into relationship with Him.
Now according to that Bible
verse in the Book of Romans, chapter three, and verse twenty-three; no one can
meet the requirements that the Father laid down. Father knew this was going to
be a problem, and He already had a solution for our sin.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his
only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have
everlasting life.
This is the best news that
mankind can ever receive. We have a way out from the judgment of God. We don’t
have to be found guilty, of the sin in our lives, even though we are guilty.
For God so loved the world. Do you
realize the power in that statement? It
is simply much more than the Father giving His Son to die for us. I will let
Jesus tell you the truth.
John 10:30 I and my Father are one.
Now that is fantastic!! Don’t you realize that the same God that
created us set the guidelines, for a relationship with Him? He set the stakes
too high for us, to do it on our own, so He came down in the form of a man to
give Himself, as the perfect sacrifice. There is so much about God that, you
will only learn through a relationship with Him. There is more, so much more,
that we will learn later on.
I want to show you something
else about Jesus. We only learn about His adventure, on the earth, by reading
the Word of God. It only tells a small amount, of the things that He did while
on the earth. The apostle John wrote that, if all were to written about Jesus
the world could not contain the books. To me that is saying that a lot of
things wasn’t recorded of the works, and the wonders, which He did perform.
There is one verse that I want to leave you with today. It sums up who Jesus is
in one verse.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the
Father, but by me.
That says it all!! Ain’t Jesus Awesome?
….Much Love
