Jesus Sings With You!

The Father and Jesus so love us that they agreed it was fitting for Jesus to take on our earthly form and become as we are. He left His glory with the Father and became a man of flesh and blood. He went through the sufferings that we experience and tasted the same death that every human being has to because of the curse found in Genesis chapter 3.

Jesus overcame death, defeated the devil and was raised back to life again. He now sits at the right hand of the Father as our High Priest. Because He was made like us, He experienced all that we are tempted in and knows exactly what we go through. Because He did not sin in all that temptation, He is qualified to render aid to us in our temptations. (See Hebrews 2:17,18)

When we cry out to God, Jesus hears our prayers and immediately begins His role as High Priest. He understands what we are feeling because He also felt those emotions and is able to be merciful towards us. He takes our prayers and requests and presents them to the Father and reminds Him that His own blood paid for our sins, bought our forgiveness and the tearing of His flesh paid for our healing. Every disease and curse was put on Jesus while He hung on the cross. Because of Jesus, we can receive forgiveness and healing from the Father.

In fact, Jesus is so bound to us that He calls us brothers and sisters. He declares the Father to us and shows us the Fathers love. Jesus also sings praises to the Father with us when we sing praises to Him. All these things are found in the book of Hebrews chapter 2.

The next time you begin praising and worshipping the Father, take time to realize and recognize that Jesus Himself is in the midst of everyone gathered to sing and praise. He is praising and singing to the Father with you, as one of you. What a powerful image to have in your mind; Jesus standing next to you, praising the Father, singing just as loud as you, pouring out His spirit of love and joy to the Father. That should ignite your faith and set your praise on fire! (See Hebrews 2:11,12)

Rejoice, for you are greatly loved!
