God treats us better than we deserve and scripture confirms this in Romans 3:23-26 (CEV). Paul said, “All of us have sinned and fallen short of God’s glory. But God treats us much better than we deserve, and because of Christ Jesus, He freely accepts us and sets us free from our sins. God sent Christ to be our sacrifice. Christ offered His life’s blood, so by faith in Him we could come to God. And God did this to show that in the past He was right to be patient and forgive sinners. This also shows that God is right when He accepts people who have faith in Jesus.”
My brothers and sisters, we are so blessed to be a child of God! Not only has the Father given His only Son so that we might experience salvation from His wrath. But He has caused us to be born again to a living hope. A hope that will not perish or be defiled. It will not fade. Instead, it is kept in the most secure place possible — it is kept in heaven.
Hallelujah, when Jesus returns, He will bring His kingdom with Him. A kingdom that is perfect. One that will never be defeated. One that will last for all eternity. When Jesus returns and sets up His kingdom, we will be able to experience life as God designed. There will be no sickness, no death, and no disunity. There will be nothing that hinders our ability to live as God has designed.
We can completely trust all of this will come to pass because Jesus was raised from the dead. After three days in the grave — there was no way He was just faking it — He rose from the dead. After interacting with well over 500 people for 40 days, He ascended into heaven in front of the disciples and He promised to come back. His promise is guaranteed because we have been sent the Holy Spirit who works in our life day in and day out.
At the end of the day, Jesus demonstrated His righteousness when came to pay a debt He did not owe, because we owed a debt we could not pay. That said, even if He did nothing else—He blessed us more than we deserve!
