What He Did, He Did For All


At the very moment Christ drew His last
physical breath, He at the Glory of the Father
crushed Satan's arrogance. The clock began to
countdown for the evil one's Eternal Punishment
in the Lake of Fire that God created for Lucifer and
the angels he horribly led astray.
*
But, what Joy unimaginably occurred in Paradise!
As Christ's physical body lay in the Tomb, the
Essence of All of His Glory was letting the captives
from Paradise free. Those in Abraham's bosom
had been awaiting God's Glory to bring them into
the place Christ had established for us all; the
very Presence of our Awesome, Holy, Almighty,
Creator, Savior God! The Great I Am's legions
and legions of holy angels could only witness
with wonder at man's redemption.
*
"Who is God that we should be mindful of Him!"
My heart aches for those who are not mindful of
God. Man thinks of 70 years, but what is 70 years
over infinity! That fraction is but a wisp of time,
a blink of an eye, a speck of dust in the universe.
It will be as if it never was. Yet, it is the most
important brief moment in time for man to
choose his/her destiny. What will it be for you?
Everlasting Salvation...or Everlasting Damnation.
*
Yes, God is Love in that He gave Himself for the
redemption of our sins. But, He also is Perfect
and Just in that He does not tolerate sin. God
provides the way, man makes the choice.
*
If you do not KNOW Christ, it's very simple to
become His child and know of His Glory. The
Bible shares, it is so simple a child can
understand.
*
Trust, Obey, Repent, Receive, Be Filled with the
Awesome Presence of Christ the LORD, through
the Holy Spirit, by God our Father. Now begin your
journey as God reveals more of Himself to you
through your faith:
1. Trust - Just as a child would not hesitate to jump to
safety in his father's arms, we too must Trust
Almighty God to do what He Says He Will Do.
2. Obey - Read the Bible, the Living Word of God every
day, applying it to your heart.
3. Repent - Ask Jesus to forgive you of your sin. "I'm a
good person" doesn't work. "All have sinned and
fallen short of the Glory of God."
4. Receive - It's as simple as saying, "LORD, come into
my life. Make me a new creation in You."
5. Be Filled - Allow God to overflow in your life in all of
the things you do. Do it for His Glory, not your own.
*
As the captives in Paradise were set free, let this
season of Christ's Love for you set you free and
begin experiencing the Magnificent Wonder of
The Great I Am, Christ Jesus!
