“Any Human Set-up Is God’s Way To Set You Up!”
We have read how the death of Jesus was masterminded by the priestly core. If you had asked them, they would have told you they were defending their religion from the infiltration of an impostor! They were acted against the blasphemy of their God and the protectiin of the covenant God had made with them.
Their ignorance: they didn’t know they were simply tools in God’s hands which he was using to accomplish the establishment of the “New covenant” which he had promised!
“Vox populi, vox Dei” may never have changed. The voice of the people is the voice of God! Their decision against Jesus elevated him to the Christ. He became a high priest in the heavenly realm, “seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, a minister in the holy places, in the true tent that the Lord set up, not man…”
The people set him up and killed him, but he became a minister in the tent that the Lord set up!
My friend, at your workplace you may have those who have set you up so as to destroy you, don’t be afraid; that is the way to the place where God has set up for you! In whatever set-up, you are more than a conqueror because Christ is your heavenly high priest of the new covenant.
In this covenant there is no longer need for any blood sacrifice because grace has been established once and for all!
Through this covenant the law is written in every heart that fears the Lord. Nobody teaches the other “know the Lord!” From now on is fulfilled the words of the prophet, “…I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more.”(Heb.8:1ff). Behold, all things are become new through the ultimate sacrifice of the Lamb who at the same time is now our heavenly high priest! Lean on him and follow on his path and be saved!
Prayer: Jesus Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on me. Amen!
Welcome back to work! Have a blessed day and week! Peace be with you!
