The Feast Daily News
26 April 2010 2 Corinthians 5
Dear Ambassadors,
Today we prayerfully continue our Feast; In 2 Corinthians 5. Did you have a blessed weekend? I think this book and chapter tells us why we are here and what our occupation is; “17Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! 18All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 20We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God. 21God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” - 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 (New International Version). Sometimes I have heard people say;”I’m not as excited anymore, as I was when I first accepted Jesus as my savior.” I think that if a person stays on a steady diet of God’s Word, the Holy Spirit will excite them even more, than when they were first saved. Look here in today’s verses show us we are Christ's ambassadors! Here doing God’s bidding, so we might become the righteousness of God. Now how much more exciting than his calling us to be His Ambassadors be?
“Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.”- Hebrews 7:25 – New International Version.
