Reverse the Curse: How Jesus Moves Us From Death to Life

6 天中的第 3 天

Day 3 - Thorns and Thistles

God created us for a purposeful and powerful work—cultivating fruit and creating life everywhere we go in a way that glorified God. He entrusted man with this work as a distinct and holy gift. Adam and Eve enjoyed a perfect relationship with creation and with their role within it.

The only tree that God withheld from them was the very tree they couldn’t resist. And when they claimed its fruit, the result was a chasm between mankind and our purpose on earth. Sin brought exhaustion to our daily labor where there should have been enjoyment.

But when Jesus entered the world, He shifted careers into callings—inviting fishermen to become fishers of men. Romans 8:20-22 explains how creation itself has been broken and waiting for the reversal of the curse. Our relationship with the world around us has been strained, but all of creation knows and waits for God’s work of redemption. Reversing the curse in our work begins by embracing a God who repurposes thorns and thistles and turns our mundane work into meaningful ministry.

Within Eden, sin moved in and made its home in the world. A world of God’s creation became tainted by a curse of our own doing. There is no doubt that sin came to ravage all things good, but woven throughout all of Scripture is the story of God working all things out for His good. We brought sin into the story, but God is reversing the curse.
