Hello dear friend,
Greetings to you in Jesus name.
We are living in one of the greatest global pandemic days of our life. We are surrounded with chaos, fear, worries, death, sickness, unemployment, pain, and disappointment; but in the midst of all this we should thank God for His grace and mercies that is keeping us safe, happy, and blessed.
Today I want to tell you that we have a new, beautiful, and blessed LIFE IN JESUS CHRIST our Lord.
If you want to enjoy this life that God has given to mankind in Jesus Christ, it is dependent on your knowledge and revelation of the finished work of Jesus on the cross.
What did Jesus do for you on the cross and how to receive this new life?
I want to share this in 3 steps, if you understand this rightly, you can experience the blessed and beautiful life that God has given to you in Jesus Christ.
- You were dead in your sins:
I think you will agree with me if I say that you are in sin (or were in sin).
The bible says that there is no one righteous not even one, and we all have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of God. Romans 3:11, 23.
What sin does is it bring death, for the wages of sin is death. Romans 6:23, and sin also separates you from your God. Isaiah 59:2.
God told Adam you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it, you will certainly die. Genesis 2:17 the bible says Adam did eat the fruit God told him not to eat, but he did not die physically.
Every time we sin, we are not dying either. Is God a liar? Definitely not! Every time we sin, we disconnect and hinder our self from the flow of Life of God into our lives. When you stay disconnected you will die spiritually, mentally, emotionally and finally physically also.
2. God is rich in mercy and grace:
Many people mistake and not understand between the grace and mercy of God. The grace of God will qualify, position and empower you to get what you did not work for and what you do not deserve; the mercy of God will pick you from your fallen and helpless state.
We all were dead in our sin, and we couldn’t revive our self with our strength, intellect, and religious living; therefore God had mercy on us and He came and pick us up from the miry clay.
When a person dies, he is buried; but the mercies of God reached to us in that dead and buried situation, and in His grace God picked us up, saved us, and gave us a new life.
The bible says, for it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God. Ephesians 2:8, our salvation is the gift (we did not earn) of God to us.
3. The greatest blessing:
Salvation is the greatest gift that we have received because we have put our faith in Jesus Christ as the Lord and Saviour of our life.
With salvation God has given us a privilege to be His sons, because we have united with Jesus Christ the Son of God in His death, burial, and resurrection. And because of our faith in Jesus, God has also raised us up with Jesus and seated us with Him, in heaven at the God’s right hand.
Though we are living our life here on earth now, but God has already positioned us at His right hand. If we want to live this new life effective and in full potential we should live with our eyes on God and with the revelation of our blessing we received in Jesus.
Let’s not get deviated from the great blessings we have received in Christ to the passions, desires, persecutions, temptations, and trails we might be in. Everything of this world will fade away, but what we have received in God is eternal.
I pray, may God give us grace to stay connected to God through the Word and the Spirit of God, and work on our salvation so that we can be like our Lord, and live a heavenly life on earth for the glory of God in Jesus mighty name. Amen
