THE MESSAGE:Jesus Christ made it all and Jesus Christ paid it all. He is responsible for creation of all things in heaven and earth, visible and invisible. He supervises the cohesive work and effort of all things. He is the head of the Church, the first born from the dead. All fullness dwells in Him. When He Created the world, everything was very good (Genesis 1:31). The devil came to the world to steal, kill and destroy but Jesus gives us life in abundance (John 10:10).
What sin disrupted; Jesus restored.Jesus made peace through the blood on the cross, thereby reconciling all things to Himself, both things in heaven and on earth. His peace-making was to restore the harmony of the original creation. Reconciliation means to bring back a former state of harmony (Strong Concordance of New Testament words).
It means a return to Jesus through His death on the cross, the disrupted relationship of mankind with God.Therefore, when we take the responsibility of making peace, we are aligning ourselves with God’s wonderful purpose by making Jesus theLord of our lives and living daily for Him. We have been given the ministry of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:15, 18-21). Therefore, once reconciled, reconcile others to God.
PRAYER: Thank You Lord for reconciling us to God through Your death on the cross. May we be part of Your ministry of reconciliation. May we find peace with You. Amen.
