"FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD"
“For we died and were buried
with Christ by baptism. And just as Christ was raised from the dead by
the glorious power of the Father, now we also may live new lives.”
- Romans 6:4 (NLT)
“…For
God so loves the world, that He gave His only son, with love He gave
His life for me, when He died on Calvary, there is no greater love….,
than a man should lay down His life for a friend….”
In place of
punishment, wounding, death, poverty, shame and rejection, Christ
freely offers forgiveness, healing, life, abundance, glory and
acceptance. He died in our place, He suffered so we would not have to
suffer, He took our place on Calvary's tree.
Remember that Jesus died for the sins of the whole world, and He died for your sins!
Stop
and think about what this means, because of Jesus, you are forgiven and
freed from the curse of sin and death. Satan's stranglehold has been
broken, and God wants to unleash His power in your life.
Today,
spend time to thank God for the exchanges on the cross, he became poor
that we may be rich; he took our sickness and infirmity on Himself. He
died so we can walk in newness of life, rededicate your life to Him
today and surrender ALL to Him. Also remember that because He loved us
so much He gave Himself for us, what can be too much to give up for HIM?
May you experience the same power that resurrected Jesus from the dead in every area of your life this season.
