Galatians 4:
5
But when the time had fully
come, God sent his Son, born of a
woman, born under
law, to
redeem those under
law, that we might receive the full rights of
sons.
Redeem:
To buy back—to free what distresses or harms—to free
from captivity—to release from blame—to free from the consequences of sin—to
change for the better—the payment of a ransom…..
Have you stopped to think of your redemption
lately?
God didn’t put you on lay away—He didn’t purchase you
with a 30% off coupon—He didn’t go to the dollar store—no, He paid full
price!
He’s not going to take you back for something better—He
doesn’t want His money back—He wants you!
He was under no obligation to do what He did—He won’t
receive any rebate or any tax advantage for doing what He
did.
He didn’t redeem you because He was provoked to do so by
some government lobbyist.
He did what He did, so He could remove our obligation to
pay.
He picked up the tab for every person on earth, and we
have the full right to live in victory.
Today, and every day is your
jubilee.
Will you celebrate your atonement
today?
You should—because if Jesus is your Lord and Savior, you
are His sons & daughters, and you have at your disposal, the full rights of
His Kingdom.
Maybe today we should live like
it……………
