- The Great Revelation: Unfolding Eternity Today (5)
Ever notice how most all the writings in Matthew through Revelation proclaim Grace and Peace? This is modeled Perfectly in Revelation 1:4-5 by Our Savior and King. Let's take a look:
“John, to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and Peace from Him Who Is and Who Was and Who Is To Come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His Throne, and from Jesus Christ, The Faithful Witness, The Firstborn From The Dead, and The Ruler Over the kings of the earth. To Him Who Loved Us and Washed Us From Our Sins In His Own blood,”
Revelation 1:4-5
Now, with that Prime Example fresh in our minds...Have you ever noticed in all the proclaiming of Matthew through Revelation that it never states peace and grace, but always states Grace first and then Peace? Well, no one can really have The Peace of God before receiving The Grace of God. Only The Grace, or Favor, of God Almighty Can Give His Peace. Do you know where His Grace Dwells? In Yeshua, Jesus Christ Our Savior! Our Savior Not Only Gives Us Grace, But Also Peace! Because Our Father's Grace and Peace Dwells With Yeshua, Jesus Christ, and we dwell In Him... It's Our Too!!! Let's take a look;
“For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.”
Romans 8:15-17
We can have Grace and Peace, True Peace That Reigns Even In The Midst Of Our Storms, Because We Receive Grace and Peace of Our God and Father Through Yeshua Ha'Mashiach, Jesus Christ. We have had Peace that comes through Grace (Favor) before, we can have it now, and we can have it in the future. How can we do this? Because Yeshua, Jesus Christ Our Savior, Was, Is, and Will Be Forever More Just As He States In Revelation. Let's take a look;
Yeshua Said During His Visit To John In The Book of Revelation:
“I Am The Alpha and The Omega, The Beginning and The End,” says The Lord, “Who Is and Who Was and Who Is To Come, The Almighty.”
Revelation 1:8
If we make the confession of our sins, confession that Yeshua, Jesus is Our King and Savior, then we are sinners saved by His Atoning Blood. This, Brothers and Sisters, is when we get Peace in our lives. Our Father's Word Tells Us All About The Truth. His Son was "pierced for our transgressions, crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us Peace was on Him, and by His Wounds We Are Healed!" (Isaiah 53.5) Praise His Name we are now at Peace with God Our Father! We have been made righteous in His Sight! How? Because:
“For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.”
II Corinthians 5:21
The Grace of Yeshua, Jesus Christ, has not only given us a Foundation of Peace between God Our Father and us, but this Foundation of Peace has also been given among us. We can have this Peace in our relationships, we can extend this Grace that has been given to us to each other in forgiveness, and we can always remember and experience right now the Grace and Peace we have with The One True And Living God!
One day this Peace we have received will be made complete, perfect, and eternal. This Peace Will Always Be With Us. Shalom (Divine Peace, Completeness) Will Be Once Again. One day the only thing we will know will be this Peace, because there will be no more tears, pain, sickness, or death. May we all be ready and prepared for that day. May we all dwell in the Grace and Peace of Our Savior and Our Father yesterday, today, and forevermore!
Prayer:
Dear God Our Heavenly Father, we give you thanks and praise always for saving us, renewing us, and giving to us, Through Your Son, Grace and Peace. Be with us Father and help us in our present relationships to show Your Grace and Peace to all we meet. Help us to always look forward to The Glorious Future In Yeshua, Jesus Christ Your Son. We Praise You. We Love You. We ask these things in The Name Above All Names, Yeshua, Jesus Christ. Amen
The Great Revelation, Grace and Peace, The Word of God:
“But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed.”
Isaiah 53:5
“And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and Given Him The Name which is above every name, that at The Name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to The Glory of God The Father.”
Philippians 2:8-11
“And God Will Wipe Away Every Tear From Their Eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”
Revelation 21:4
