This morning as I ministered to the Lord the Holy Spirit in my communion time directed me to look at Hebrews.12:24 which reads :24 to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.
As I meditated on this word about Jesus being the Mediator of the New covenant. I was reminded about what a Mediator has the responsibility to do in any given situation which is to reconcile two opposing sides to reach an agreement and work out the differences and bring an agreeable solution.
Jesus knew that sin had the advantage over man after Adam sinned in the garden and for that reason death reigned in man, but Jesus came and took our place by becoming sin for us thus reconciling us back to God and giving us the ability to reign in life by the abundance of His grace and the gift of righteousness.Romans.5:17.
Everything necessary to make us acceptable to the Father Jesus did as a perfect Mediator so that we would become acceptable to the Father and thus receive an inheritance as a son of God.
Colossians.1:22 & 23. And you, who once were alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled 22 in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and blameless, and above reproach in His sight.
The Holy Spirit was reminding me that it is Jesus who did the work of mediation with the Father that positioned us for glory and we need to have much more confidence in what Jesus accomplished on our behalf and act from that place of authority rather than allow condemnation and fear to govern our actions.
We have been granted access into the very Presence of God in the Holiest place in the Universe through the precious blood of Jesus and are guaranteed audience with the Most High God to every blessing He has determined beforehand that we should inherit if we walk in this light.
Now these realities of the Kingdom which Jesus gained for us are the very keys that grant us the ability to overcome every obstacle and high thing that seeks to exalt itself above the knowledge of God concerning our lives.
This is why the Holy Spirit is with us to remind us of what Jesus did for us and causes us to experience the manifestation of His work on our behalf rather than rely on our good deeds of service.
What Jesus as Mediator did for us is what we must completely rely and depend upon because that is our life line of continued access to all the benefits the Lord has bought and paid for us to inherit.
Take a few minutes to embrace and thank the Lord for this reality and allow these life-giving words to so overtake you and override all negative thoughts and vibes that have sought to keep you in bondage to the sin of the past and embrace the truth which makes you free.
The Holy Spirit wants us walking in the place of authority far more than we can imagine because it is our Covenant right in Jesus to be in this place. I have found that the Holy Spirit always lifts us up from the place of sorrow and doubt and sets us up on the path of triumph as He reminds us of all Jesus did to free us to serve Him without fear in holiness and righteousness all the days of our lives. Luke.1:74 & 75.
The Holy Spirit wants us to embrace our Mediator who did everything necessary to redeem us and to reject our accuser who seeks to bind us and keep us in the law of sin and death. We must embrace fully the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus that sets us free from the law of sin and death.
These are not just fancy words for our consumption but they are spirit and they contain life which we must press into to experience on a daily basis. Jesus came to give us life and that in its fullest measure. John.10:10.
Therefore today as you receive these words allow them to take root in your hearts and permit the grace supplied through them to make the changes a reality in your present life to be transformed into who the Lord created you to be to express His glory and be a manifestation and witness to His Resurrection power which brings life to what is dead and transforms it into beauty for the glory of His wonderful name.
May you experience today the explosive power of the Holy Spirit in such a way that lifts you to know beyond a shadow of doubt the hand of the Lord working signs, wonders and miracles through your life to expand the Kingdom of Jesus on the earth to glorify His wonderful name in Jesus name. Amen.
