Jesus is the Mystery

by Sam

Making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him to an administration of the fullness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens, and the things on the earth, in him.

Ephesians 1:9-10

Jesus is the mystery of God’s will. Jesus lived in the glory of heaven, surrounded by throngs of adoring angels. He lived in a place of pure joy and happiness, light and peace. He left all that to show us the path to righteousness. He risked everything that we could have the chance of eternal life. Why? Why leave everything good and holy to come to a sinful world, be assaulted by temptations and trials, and die a horrible shameful death?

Because Jesus is the mystery of God’s will. And God is Love. He loves you so much that He could not leave you to die.

Jesus loves you. He knows you. He made your features in your mother’s womb. He knows how weak you are. He wants to wash you free of sin, free of guilt. He wants you to know Him, to receive peace and hope. Jesus loves you so much, that He is waiting at your heart’s door, knocking, begging you to let Him in. He wants to take you to heaven, away from pain and sorry, away from death and darkness.

The mystery of God’s will is Jesus. God is Love. Jesus loves you. Won’t you let Him in today?

Pray: Jesus, please come into my heart. Cleanse me of sin and give me a new heart and mind. Help me to know You better. I pray in Jesus’ Name, Amen.
