14 Days To Live

DAY 13 OF 14

Jesus is greater than sin and death

Devotional

When reading the account of the cross, Jesus can seem a victim. The lies and deception, conspiracies and violations of the law all point to a lack of justice. But victims are ignorant. Victims don’t know what’s going on. Victims are passive.

There is a comforting biblical truth that can, at times, be confusing. Jesus always acts first. Before the world began, void and shapeless, Jesus was active and present. Throughout human history and biblical revelation Jesus is active and present. Even on the cross, with the sun sinking in the sky and the human body of Jesus fading away, Jesus was active and present. On the cross Jesus paid the price that sin demands in His death. On the cross Jesus absorbed the penalty of God’s wrath against sin. On the cross Jesus relinquished His followers from the guilt of rebellion and clothed them in His righteousness. On the cross Jesus was not passive. Jesus is greater than sin and death.

Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe,
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow

Oh, praise the One who paid my debt,
And raised this life up from the dead,
(Jesus Paid it All; Isaiah 1:18)

Pray

Thank you Jesus for Your perfect life and sacrificial death that took my place and paid my debt. Thank you for Your plan of salvation. Please help me walk in the light of Your Gospel everyday, and proclaim it in love to others.
