Romans 11:17

DECEMBER 04, 2023

Today’s Scripture

…and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree…

Romans 11:17

Many people claim a deep affiliation with religion, but they have no relationship with Jesus. Until they are grafted into the True Vine, they face death and the fire of judgment.

To graft a branch into a vine, the vinedresser cuts open the well-rooted, mature vine. In the fresh cut, he places the branch. He then ties the vine and the branch together.

As the vine begins to heal, the sap and nutrients from the root will feed the branch through the wound of the vine. This life-giving flow unites the branch and vine. Eventually, no one will be able to tell that the branch was once separate from the vine.

Before Calvary, we were outside of the covenant of God – a wild olive tree. When Jesus went to the cross, He was wounded for our wrongs, crushed for our evil. The judgment for our sin was placed on Him. He was pierced and broken for us.

But when He cried, “It is finished,” His crucifixion pulled us into the covenant! Because we are grafted into Jesus, the spiritual DNA of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob now flows through us. We are His chosen and redeemed, fed by the richness of the True Vine!
