I sent My only begotten Son, Jesus, to the earth. He was the most radiant, precious and unblemished lamb. He came with the greatest plan known to man and remained sinless to carry it out. Then, on the appointed day, He willingly laid down His life as the ultimate sacrifice. He took the curse of sin and death upon Him, paying for your sin so you wouldn’t have to. He rose again and conquered death so you could live forever. He ascended into heaven so My Spirit could come upon you. Soon, He will return to wipe away every tear and reign as your perfect King.
What a gift. There is no greater love than this. Because of all Jesus did, now you have the keys to freedom, eternal hope, and a future.
My hope as your Father is that you would honour Jesus’s sacrifice in all you do.
Stay in remembrance of His sacrifice with gratitude and worship. Step into all He died to give you. Walk with Him, and let Him transform you.
Love and lead people to Him. Live from a place of victory knowing everything that comes against you has already been defeated at the cross.
Activation: As an act of worship, read Philippians 2:1-18. Assess your heart and ask the Lord to transform you into Christ’s image. Then, honour Jesus’s sacrifice by loving like He did and sharing about Him so others may be saved and share in the rewards of sonship.
“For God so [greatly] loved and dearly prized the world, that He [even] gave His [One and] [a]only begotten Son, so that whoever believes and trusts in Him [as Savior] shall not perish, but have eternal life.

Footnotes
[a] John 3:16 Jesus, God’s only Son, the One who is truly unique, the only one of His kind.
8 After He was found in [terms of His] outward appearance as a man [for a divinely-appointed time], He humbled Himself [still further] by becoming obedient [to the Father] to the point of death, even death on a cross.
9 For this reason also [because He obeyed and so completely humbled Himself], God has highly exalted Him and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name,
10 so that at the name of Jesus [a]every knee shall bow [in submission], of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and that every tongue will confess and openly acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord (sovereign God), to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 2:8-11 (AMP)
Footnotes
[a] Philippians 2:10 All intelligent beings in the universe, whether saved or unsaved, whether in spirit or as mortal mankind, will acknowledge Him.
