IN REDEMPTION: WE ARE FORGIVEN, ACQUITTED, RECEIVED [ACCEPTED] AND BLESSED!
Thank you, Father God, for what you’ve done for me and us, in your REDEMPTION for all humanity [mankind], in Christ Jesus. Amen.
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS – WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“GIVING THANKS to the Father who has QUALIFIED US to be PARTAKERS of the INHERITANCE of the saints in the light. 13 He has DELIVERED US from the POWER OF DARKNESS and CONVEYED US into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION through His blood, the FORGIVENESS of sins” Colossians 1:12-14/NKJV.
“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has BLESSED US with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, 4 just as He CHOSE US in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 5 having PREDESTINED US to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He MADE US accepted in the Beloved. 7 In Him we have REDEMPTION through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the RICHES of His grace 8 which He made to ABOUND TOWARD US in all wisdom and prudence, 9 having MADE KNOWN TO US THE MYSTERY OF HIS WILL, according to His good pleasure which He PURPOSED in Himself, 10 that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth—in Him. 11 In Him also we have OBTAINED an inheritance, being PREDESTINED according to the PURPOSE of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, 12 that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory” Ephesians 1:3-8/NKJV.
“Therefore, having been JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this grace in which we stand, and REJOICE in HOPE of the GLORY of God” Romans 5:1-2/NKJV.
“And from Jesus Christ, the FAITHFUL WITNESS, the FIRSTBORN FROM THE DEAD, and the RULER over the kings of the earth. To Him who LOVED US and WASHED US from our sins in His own blood, 6 and has MADE US kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be GLORY and DOMINION forever and ever. Amen” Revelation 1:5-6/NKJV.
“And they SANG A NEW SONG, saying: “You are WORTHY to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were SLAIN, And have REDEEMED US to God by Your blood Out of every TRIBE and TONGUE and PEOPLE and NATION, 10 And have MADE US kings and priests to our God; And we shall REIGN on the earth.” 11 Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands, 12 saying with a loud voice: “WORTHY IS THE LAMB who was SLAIN To RECEIVE POWER and RICHES and WISDOM, And STRENGTH and HONOR and GLORY and BLESSING!” Revelation 5:9-12/NKJV.
“But you ARE a CHOSEN GENERATION, a ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, a HOLY NATION, His OWN SPECIAL PEOPLE, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; 10 who ONCE WERE NOT A PEOPLE but ARE NOW THE PEOPLE of God, who had NOT OBTAINED MERCY but NOW HAVE OBTAINED MERCY” 1 Peter 2:9-10/NKJV.
