FAITH CAPSULE: The caring of God is His love.
John 19
The blood of Jesus shed on the Calvary is not a liberty to continue in sin.
The goodness of God is the grace of Jesus.
Jesus paid on behalf of all by drinking the cup of sin, pain, grief, and every other undesirable punishment.
Jesus carried the cross for all to cross over.
John 19:17-18 records, “And He, bearing His cross, went out to a place called the Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha, where they crucified Him, and two others with Him, one on either side and Jesus in the center.
The grace of God cares by being available for those who will seek Him with a whole heart.
The glorious name of God deserves praise and thanks.
Psalm 69:30 states, “I will praise the name of God with a song and will magnify Him with thanksgiving.”
God is a loving God, and He proved His love through His word and action. He proved His love by going on the cross.
God proves in His word stating “…that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.” (John 3:15-17)
God is mindful of His children and demonstrates by His word and action, evidence of His caring for all.
God invested so much in all, but the majority despises His word.
God is a forgiving God.
Out of curiosity, Peter investigated the issue of forgiveness when he approached Jesus with a question stating, “…Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?” (Matthew 18:21)
Jesus responds to Peter, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.” (Matthew 18:22)
God made room for His children not to miss heaven.
Imagine 7×70 (490) times for the grace for forgiveness.
In Jesus, “…we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace.” (Ephesians 1:7)
God is worthy of the reasonable sacrifice of thanksgiving regularly.
The goodness of God is in place that sin is not enough to separate His children who cry out to Him with a heart of repentance.
Goodness is forgiveness; the grace of the blood of Jesus shed on the Calvary is not a liberty to continue in sin.
The word of God admonishes all, “Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?”(Ephesians 6:1-2)
To be sinning should not be a dwelling place.
Jesus paid it all, and He is alive!
Prayer for today: Pray that the blood of Jesus shall not be a waste over your life.
