A Daily Devotional – Personal Faith – Personal Meditation
Comment: When there is a work to be done and
when one’s mind is set to complete that work, there will be opposition, but
these oppositions will not prevent the final words to be spoken. “IT IS
FINISHED” Thus, it always crosses my mind; “why do we call this Friday ‘Good’?”
I believe the words are religious idolatry on one hand, but I also believe that
‘Good Friday’ is Good. For without it being good for all who fall short of God’s
glory, and that you be you and me. There would be no deliverance for sin, and
without the crucifixion there would be no ‘resurrection’ and without the
resurrection, there would be no eternal life for us sinful human beings.
Devotional: So
while we contend with mixed emotions over the death and resurrection of Jesus
Christ the Son of God, who is the Messiah who was cut down for our transgressions
committed against God, His Father, let us consider the return of the
Christ/Messiah; the KING.
“The King is coming; do you not see it? The KING is
coming! I just heard the trumpet sounding and now His face I see. Oh! the King
is coming, yes; the KING is coming and He is coming for you and me..
The market places are empty, there is no more traffic
in the streets; Hey! All of the builder’s tools are silent and no one is
harvesting wheat. The busy house wives cease their labors, in the courtroom,
there is no debate. Work on earth has been suspended, as the KING comes through
the gate.
Happy faces line the hallways, those whose lives have
been redeemed. Broken homes that He has mended and those from prison He
has freed. Little children and the aged, hand in hand stand all aglow, those
who were crippled, broken or ruined are now clad in garments white as snow.
I can hear the chariots rumble, I can see the marching
throng. The flurry of God’s trumpets, spell the END of sin and wrong. Regal
robes are now unfolding, heavens grandstands all in place. Heaven’s choir is
now assembled, as the KING comes through the gate.
This is the amazing grace of God, it is also a piece
from our Cantada tomorrow evening. Yes it is FINISHED AND IT IS GOOD, Oh the
KING is COMING again and He is coming for you and for me. Amen!
