| Ephesians 2:18 |
|
| |
2:18 for through him we both have our access in one Spirit unto the Father. Awesome; I cannot fathom it. Sometimes I take it for granted that I have access to the Father. Then I start reading the Old Testament again, and I study the priesthood. Only one got to go into the HOLIEST of all. That wouldn't have been me, for I am a woman. However, I wouldn't have gotten to go because I see so many flaws in me. I would have been the one the rope was tied around and they had to drag me out.
HALLELUJAH! I can go into the Father. I do it at times with trembling lips and beating heart. I consider it a great honor; I NEVER, EVER want to take it for granted.
Jesus made all this possible. God created me to the praise of His glory. Ephesians 1:11,12 In whom also we obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: That we should be to the PRAISE OF HIS GLORY, who first trusted in Christ.
Now soak that up when you are feeling down or depressed. That is my medicine when I feel blue. I read Ephesians and claim the promises, and I praise the Lord for HIS marvelous plan. |
