Justified freely by His blood; all our ransom was paid through the resurrection of Christ. Every debt was canceled there was nothing left outstanding. The Passover of feasting with the disciples represented the promise of God. It was the body of Christ that would be broken for us and the shedding of His blood. Understanding what the cross meant is very important for everyone. Christ fulfilled the promise of God which was taking away the sins of the whole world and making us the righteousness of God. Christ was without iniquity, there was no corruption within Him and He became all that for us on the cross so that we would be justified. "For he hath made him be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him" (2 Corinthian 5:21). What Christ did on the cross no other could have done; He was born to die for the entire human race. There is no prejudice in His love. "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life" (John.3:16).
The Lord is worthy and greatly to be praised. In Him, we can put our trust. He is the God of provisions and our help in times of trouble. Let us stand in the faith as Abraham hath done knowing that God is faithful and has the ability to perform it all. Circumstances change but our God never changes. God already knows everything which we will face in this life, we must trust in him and know that all is well. He never took our place on the cross through Christ to leave us in times of difficulties, he took it and redeemed us from everything that was against us. God never fails, He can’t, He is God. “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and learn not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct they paths” (Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV). Pray this prayer of faith: Jesus, thank you for taking my place on the cross. I thank you for loving and forgiving me. I accept you as my Lord and Savior in my heart today. Amen.
