Thursday of this week is the one day of the year called Thanksgiving Day. It is when people should give thanks to Jehovah God for all His blessings. However, more often than not, it turns into a day when people eat too much and watch television. We believe everyday should be a day to give thanks to our God. The most important blessing to thank God for is sending His Son Jesus Christ to earth to fulfill His plan of salvation for all people! Bless His Holy Name!
Hebrews 8 is entitled "A Better Covenant," verses 6,7 says, "But now He {Jesus} has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises. For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second."
The above verses indicate there was a problem with the Old Blood Covenant that God established on Mt. Sinai when He gave His Law to Moses for the Israelites. What was the Problem? God's people were never able to keep all His Law because of the "Sin Nature" received by all people in the Garden Of Eden.
Our Loving, Caring, Merciful God Had A Remedy. He Sent Jesus To Earth! Jesus responded to Jehovah God in Hebrews 10:9,10 saying, "Behold, I have come to do Your will, O God. He takes away the first that He may establish the second. By that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all."
Jesus came to earth to die for us carrying all our sins on a cross with Him. Isaiah 53:5,6 says, "But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned, every one, to his own way; and The Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all."
When a person accepts Jesus Christ as their Lord And Savior, all their sins are forgiven and they receive salvation and eternal life. Every day, not just one day a year, we should all thank and praise Jehovah God for His plan of redemption by sending Jesus to earth!
If you now realize it is time to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord And Savior, please pray this pray with me:
Jesus, I know I am a sinner
Please forgive me of all my sins
I believe Jesus is The Son Of God
I confess Jesus died for me and God raised Him from the dead
Jesus, come and live in my heart as my Lord And Savior, Amen
Angels in Heaven are now rejoicing!
Blessed Thanksgiving,
Frank
