HEAD
In Revelation 5, John continues in his vision to tell us about the Lamb. John tells us he sees “a Lamb that looked as if he had been put to death” (Revelation 5:6). This is Jesus! Jesus appears with the scars He received from the cross. The creatures and elders worshiped Jesus saying He is worthy to open the scroll, a very important letter that contains God’s plan. The creatures and elders continue singing about Jesus, “With your blood, you bought people for God. They come from every tribe, people, and nation, no matter what language they speak. You have made them members of a royal family” (Revelation 5: 9-10). First of all, I want you to understand that Jesus is very much ALIVE!!! Second, because he died FOR US, we have the opportunity to be part of a ROYAL family. This makes us princes and princesses if we choose to believe and trust in Jesus. It makes me sad that Jesus has scars because of my sins, but I am oh so thankful that He loves me enough to die on the cross so I can live with Him in Heaven. I pray you accept Jesus’ invitation into the Royal Family.
HEART
I like to play a game with my kids. It goes something like this, “I love you more than
_______,” and we go back and forth to try to top the other person’s level of love. We often start with: “I love you more than Dr. Pepper.” Finish this sentence, “Jesus loves me more than___________” I bet you can’t top Jesus’ love for you!
HANDS
Choose one person today and tell them, “Jesus loves you more than ______________.” You fill in the blank.
Prayer: Lord, forgive me for my sins. It makes me sad that You have scars because of my mistakes, but thank You for loving me enough to die on the cross for me. Amen.
