God has a will.
According to His will He made all things(Rev 4:11) and
His will never changes(Job 23:13; He 6:17).
Faith is understanding the Lord's will and
The life of this will is doing according to His will.
The human culture and civilization are the result of man's will.
Whether a politician, a scientist, an artist, a businessman, a soldier or a laborer
Every man has his own will.
If understanding the will of a man of high position is important,
How much more important would it be to understand the will of God?
It determines whether one will have eternal life or eternal condemnation(Mt 25:46).
The living being, Adam, misunderstood the will of God and
He ate the forbidden fruit(Ge 3:4-6), because of which
All men became hell-bound with the devil(Mt 25:41).
The Bible is written of the Lord's will.
The Passover ceremony(Ex 12:26-27) that
God commanded the descendants of Israel, and
The decrees and laws that they received(Dt 6:20-24) had to be kept
In order to live(Dt 18:5, Dt 30:19-20) for
God is life and longevity.
Accordingly, the cities of refuge built for those who killed unintentionally(Nu 35:6-34),
The sin offering that sinners gave,
The sanctuary where the blood of sacrifice was always present were
All mechanisms by which they extended their breath.
Yet misunderstanding this,
Job insisted on his righteousness and suffered greatly as a result(Job 10:6-8).
Jesus said, "Destroy this temple and I will raise it again in three days, because
Through the death and the resurrection of the temple of His body(Jn 2:19-22),
He would give not longevity but eternal life to all men for
He is the incarnate Word who was with the Father in the beginning,
The Only Begotten Son(Jn 1:1, Jn 1:14, Jn 1:18) and
He only did according to the will of the Father who sent Him.
As He died, Jesus said, "It is finished(Jn 19:30), declaring that He:
Died according to the will of the Father who made all things for the Son(Jn 10:17-8; He 1:2);
Judged the thief devil(Jn 10:8); and
Through the redeeming blood gave life to all men(Mt 20:28).
He rose and sat on the heavenly throne.
The Holy Spirit whom He sent
Reminds the Lord's will - that is,
Eternal life to those who look to the Son and believe and
To lose not even one of those given.
Therefore, the man of the Spirit sows
Not for the flesh to reap destruction
But for the Spirit to reap eternal life(Gal 6:8).
On the day that is called, "this day,
He puts every effort to raise all those given to him
Only according to the Lord's will for
He has the lasting power of life.
O Lord,
There is nothing more important than doing the Lord's will!
There is nothing more precious to me than eternal life!
Let us daily run towards eternal life and
Put every effort to raise to life all those given us. Amen.
