He Didn't Pay the Price for Nothing

Often, many Christians say that they believe in Jesus, that He is the truth, the Way, and the Life, that nothing is impossible with Jesus. Yet when a situation arises, the first thing that comes to their mind is never about trusting God, but rather, doubting God or even completely remove Him from the equation. Think about it - When you were sick, did you remember that God is our Healer? When you had lack in your life, did you remember that God is our Provider? When you were troubled and down, did you remember that God is our Comforter? Or when the circumstances before you seemed so difficult to resolve, did you remember that God is the God of the Impossible?

When we are faced with an obstacle, we tend to forget about who God is, and what He can do to guide us out of it. We tend to lose faith and trust in Him, and we tend to resolve the situation using our own way. And when things get really bad, we start to ask God this question: “Lord, where are You when I need You?” But did it ever come to your mind that it is you who fail to seek Him, to trust and have faith in Him that He will deliver you from that hopeless situation? Jesus said that He will never leave us nor forsake us, and He means it! All we need to do is to commit our circumstances to Him, have faith in Him, and continue to sing praises to Him. Remember, Jesus said on the cross, “It is done!”

Jesus didn’t pay the heavy price for nothing! He didn’t come down as a man to be despised, rejected and cursed by men for nothing. He didn’t suffer and die on the cross for nothing. He didn’t put our iniquities, our shame, and our pain upon himself for nothing. He healed the sick; not for us to doubt His healing power. He saved the lost; not for us to drift further away from Him. He died on the cross for us; not for us to reject Him. He resurrected; not for us to feel defeated. He was sinless, perfect, and righteous, yet He paid the price for us.

Who are we that we deserved all that the King of Glory had done for us? Are we worthy of His grace and mercy?

WE ARE NOT WORTHY!

But because He saw us when He did all that for us. He loved us. He longed for a relationship with us. He created us in His image. He made us His highest creation.
He wants us to do the things which he had done, and greater things shall we do also, because He has gone to the Father.

Jesus didn’t pay the heavy price for nothing! He died on the cross, was placed in a tomb, but the tomb could not contain Him! When He resurrected, He gave us victory in His Name, and the devil has been defeated! It is not “The devil is going to be defeated”, but rather, he has already been defeated by Jesus on the cross! We have victory against the devil in Jesus’ Name! The battle has been won. All we need to do is to claim God’s Words! He paid the price for these very reasons, to heal us, to give us victory, to set us free, to break the strongholds, to redeem us, to deliver us, to bless us!

DON’T LET JESUS PAY THE PRICE FOR NOTHING!

Let your faith arise in Jesus’ mighty name!

Amen!
