GOD DEMONSTRATES FOR US

Romans 5:8 (Nkjv) But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

When you stop to think about Good Friday you realise it’s the biggest demonstration of love mankind has ever seen. It was the day God revealed His great love for us when Jesus became the sacrifice for all our sins when we were so far away from Him. His love showed us there was no limit to the price He was willing to pay to redeem us. It's even more humbling when we realise how none of us deserved His great grace and mercy. It's not about us, it's all about Jesus and His love for us.

But it was also on Good Friday that God demonstrated His great goodness to mankind in sending Jesus, because no one else could do it. He didn't have to do it, but He chose to do it.

On Easter Sunday God demonstrated His great power when He raised Jesus from the dead and brought Him victorious out of Hell and seated Him at His right hand in heaven and then seated us there with Him.

God doesn't just talk about things, He demonstrates them for all to see so we can never be in any doubt about His love, His goodness and His power. And this same God has become One with our spirit, and He's living on the inside of us right now if we've made Jesus our Lord and Saviour.

Lord open the eyes of our hearts so we have a greater understanding of the length, the breadth, height, and the depth of Your great love for us and the exceedingly great power You have placed within us. Amen.
