A Supernatural Love Story

For God so loved the world...
Our Maker created something out of nothing-our world. The moon and stars were carefully set in place (Psalm 8:3). He spoke life into the skies and the seas, earth and animal. He looked, and saw that it was good. Then, He scooped up a handful of dirt and began to fashion "adam". God gave him ears to hear and a mouth to speak His instructions to all of His creation. He also formed a partner for Adam so His joy would be doubled. Though sin had not entered the world yet, our Father had a plan in place.

That he gave his one and Only Son...
Man's authority was traded to the enemy of God, a fallen angel. The Divine redemption plan was then set in motion. God's enemy was wary, knowing that this New Man was coming. This New Man was Jesus, sent by His Father to rescue the world from the enemy. By living perfectly, Jesus redeemed man through his blood. There was no "Plan B", and He knew it. He refused to let distractions keep Him from what His Papa would have Him do.

That whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life...
Jesus died a horrible death so that those who believe may have eternal life. This divine exchange calls for laying down our lives that we had before and taking up His plan for us(Matthew 16:24). In the days of the Tabernacle and Temple, only the best sacrifices would do for God. As our living sacrifice, Jesus took on our sins to redeem us from the enemy. For those who believe in him, the enemy has no hold over us. Jesus came so that we can have the best of life-a relationship with the Father who loves us more than we could ever imagine.

It's easy to quote the above Scripture and ignore what it says. It's a message that we as believers need to remind ourselves of and tell a dying world.
