REDEEMED FROM THE CURSE OF THE LAW

“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the spirit through faith” Galatians 3:13-14

LIGHT FOR THE NOW: Redemption made it possible for man to enjoy eternal life.

Anytime you do not understand the finished work of Christ on the Cross, you will exalt problems above redemption. Failure and frustration are not part of our redemption (Revelation 5:10). It was man’s disobedience that brought sin to the world. Disobedience to God’s instruction brought sin and sin brought death into the world. Romans 5:12 (NLT) says, “When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned”. Everything about man was good until sin arrived. Wherever you find sin, you will find death. Sin is not an act; it is a nature. It is not what you do but who you are. Redemption makes it possible for us to enjoy eternal life.

Redemption is re-creation. It is God recreating Himself in man. The day you come into Christ, all of God is deposited in your inside. Colossians 1:14 says, “in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins”. Sin is not of God. James 1:13 says, “Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man”. There is no darkness in God. One of the nature of God is light. John 1:4-5 says, “In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not”. Therefore, as a new man in Christ, sin and its consequences has no place in you. You have been redeemed from the curse of the Law. Halleuyah!!

INSTRUCTION: Stay in the finished work of Christ.

PRAYER: Father, thank you for redeeming us from the curse of the law, in Jesus name.

QUOTE: God does not give people things, He gives His nature.
