Morning with Ebenezer

LET'S THINK ABOUT JESUS

Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God,  but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.  And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. 

Philippians 2:5-8 NKJV

Many countries especially those who were the colonies of others countries before their independence have what they call their heroes. They have the list of men and women who fought for their liberty and brought forth independence. But in most cases there will be a person who will be always remembered for his sacrifice and outstanding courage to fight for his people.

When we think about Jesus, is more than these men and women. Jesus is more than any great leader ever lived in this earth and even who will come in the future. This man who was in the form of God, did not take it for his own advantage, but made Himself nothing by taking a nature of a servant, and he came in the likeness of men.

He came for one reason to save me and you from sin and hell. His mission made Him to die, the death of the cross. He was from a poor family and He endured all hardships and rejection from sinners. He had to go through all of this in order that you may be free and live the life of peace and victory.

This morning, God wants you to think about the sacrifice which His Son did for you. It is easy for people of God to complain that God does not love them, He doesn't care about their problems and He is far from them. But all of these are lies which the devil skillful implant inside of us that we may shut our focus from God to our problems.

Jesus loves you, He died for you. He is before God praying for you that You may continue being faithful in your salvation until the last second of you being on this earth. If you think He is worth for what He did for you, you need to start living for Him and submit your whole life in His hands.
