The Death of Life

Holy Week is a time for us to reflect on the greatness and sacrifice that Christ made for us on the cross. How he spent 33 years on this earth just to prepare for his death. As we celebrate during this week I would like to challenge us to look at the importance of  Death. As people we see death as the final good-bye, but we know that Jesus made death a hello, by given us eternal life. His death give us the opportunity to have an intimate relationship with Daddy. What an awesome wonder he is and continues to be to us, as he intercedes for us, lives in us, moves in us, and loves us back to him daily.  My heart is overjoyed knowing that the son brought us back to the father. Now let us not forget that the death of Jesus was not easy for him. We know that in the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus beg for the father to figure out another way to save man without him dying. But when he realize that his will could not succeed the will of the father, he yield himself to Daddy with the knowledge, faith, and reminder that Daddy would do something so great because of his sacrifice. So today while you hear about the negativity of this world, reflect on the fact that you are covered by the blood.

Prayer: Daddy, thank you for the conversation that you and Jesus had about us. That together you planned a way to get us back into your good grace. That Jesus volunteered his life to be sacrificed that we may have eternal life, and not just eternal but an intimate relationship with Daddy. Because of the blood of Jesus we have freedom, victory, peace, love, and most importantly  Jesus living inside us, giving us access to the Holy Spirit for guidance. Daddy as we face the days of Holy Week, let us not get caught up in the activities, but the gratefulness of your peace, love, joy, forgiveness, mercy, and grace that you give to us daily with the position of being called your children. Daddy we love you, Jesus we say thank you , and though those words can't express the joy of hearts for your life, it is truly a start, Oh Lamb of GOD, Son of Man, Son of Righteousness, Lord of lords, King of king, Awesome Wonder, Savior, Counselor, and Redeemer. In Jesus Name We pray! Amen and Glory to GOD!
