Gospel Reflections #576: Eyes on Jesus alone

Romans 8:34 "Who is able to condemn us? For Christ Jesus, who died, or rather, who was resurrected, sits at the right hand of God

He intercedes for us."

Jesus intercedes for us now not only to take the place of our sins and restore us to freedom from sin, but also to give us new life, to raise us up and complete us as children of God if we believe.

He is interceding for us now to give us new life, to raise us up, and to complete us as children of God if we believe in Him.

We have believed in and accepted Jesus through the power of the Holy Spirit.

We worry about salvation, we fret about sin, we look at ourselves and lament that nothing has changed, even though Jesus has promised to complete us.

We say we believe in Jesus, but we can't believe and look for something else to believe in.

Let us take our eyes off ourselves and look up to Jesus.

Let us believe every one of God's promises in the Bible.

Even if we cannot believe anything we see, the windows of heaven are open to us.

Let us look at Him through the windows of heaven that He gave His life to open for us, speak to Him, and express our gratitude and joy to Him.

It will surely become a big thing in the family of God and will affect outside of the family of God.
