Prayer 2021 - December 22 - The Last Will and Testament pt 2
Scripture For Today:Luke 19:46“It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be a house of prayer’; but you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’” The Last Will and Testament pt 2
Yesterday, we looked at “our inheritance” through our Salvation in Christ. I talked about, in the natural, when some is preparing to die, they usually will leave a “Will.” And the legal name for that document is the “Last Will and Testament of” that person.
It is a legal document and has the full power and effect of enforcing that persons desires that will take place after their death.
Hebrews 9:15-17 discuss what a “will” actually is and what it does.
“For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance—now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant. In the case of a will, it is necessary to prove the death of the one who made it, because a will is in force only when somebody has died; it never takes effect while the one who made it is living.”
The testament or “Will” specifies WHO RECEIVES WHAT… And a Will cannot be made if the person who wants to leave it does not have anything worth having a Will for. Amen! Only someone who is leaving some sort of “legacy” will have a Will. It will deal with something of value that the person writing Will wants to make sure will be passed along to the designated person.
That means, for every Will – there MUST BE a “testator” (or someone who wrote the Will)…
Jesus IS the “New Testament.” It is HIS WILL. He has a GREAT LEGACY to pass on to others. Amen!
The most important Legacy of Jesus is the FORGIVENESS of our sins. That is the first and foremost component of the Will of Jesus. Erasing forever the division between us and God.
Sin divides and separates us from God. Jesus’ legacy is the FOREGIVENESS of the sin that eternally separates us from our Heavenly Father. There is no greater legacy that could ever be left to any human being!
If you do not have this promise from Jesus as YOUR legacy, as YOUR inheritance – when you close your eyes in death, there is still that separation between you and God. And it will be too late to bridge that gap. You will be forever separated from God. And that would not be a pleasurable inheritance at all.
But the Legacy of Jesus has passed on to us the forgiveness of sins and the promise that HE is the mediator between us and God. And God has agreed to forgive the sins of every person who believes on Jesus.
Amen. We will take it up here again tomorrow.
Let’s Pray!
