“For the LORD takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with salvation.” Psalm 149:4
The LORD created us for His pleasure and He has nothing but love for us in His heart. This is why He had to come down for us when we fell into sin. He cannot stand to see His beloved suffering the curse of sin and the sting of death. Jesus Christ, our LORD, came down as a man so He could be our representative in dealing with God’s law of life and righteousness (Hebrews 5). Being our representative, Christ bore all our sins in His Person and He took the full payment of our sins required by God’s holy law. Jesus Christ was beaten, crushed, humiliated, rejected, striped, and finally crucified. All of these the Son of God went through because HE LOVES US.
Today, He who wore the crown of thorns which bears the curse of sin, crowns us with His salvation! There is no more pain, no more suffering, no more emptiness, no more sadness, no more sickness, all the curses of sin has been fully paid for! So stop accepting the devil’s lies! Thank God for His Son, Jesus Christ!
