Then He is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom. His flesh shall be fresher than a child's: he shall return to the days of his youth: He shall pray unto GOD, and He will be favourable unto him: and he shall see His face with joy: for He will render unto man His righteousness. He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not; He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light. (Job 33:24-28)
Elihu continues his response to Job and his three friends by extolling properly the Salvation of our GOD. His redemption is by grace, and His mercies are renewed every morning. His righteousness is imputed unto us by faith, our faith in Him and His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary. All our righteousness is as filthy rags and our iniquities have taken us away. Only through repentance and our trust in the blood of Jesus Christ shed in our place can we be made perfect and holy in the eyes of GOD and enter into His presence, both now and for all eternity.
Our GOD is a righteous GOD who calls those who are His to holiness and obedience in His Word. We live this new life we have in Christ, by His power and presence, that we might glorify and worship Him who is worthy of all praise. We endure trials because He is merciful and gracious, and will bring us through. We are strong, not in our own flesh for that is weak, but in the strength of the Lord who is our strength and our song. The arm of flesh will fail us, but our GOD will never leave us nor forsake us, and through Him we can do all things He calls us to do to accomplish His will and do His work in this world.
We are here to represent our GOD who has delivered us, to minister to those around us who are hurting and in need, with the Word of righteousness and reconciliation, rightly divided and fitly spoken, that others may see Christ in us, the hope of Glory. We are here to fellowship together, loving one another in the love of Christ and discipling one another in the Word of GOD. We are here to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ, as we go in the power of the Holy Spirit where He sends us, and to proclaim the Good News of forgiveness through repentance and reconciliation with the Father through faith in His Son that those who believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him might have life in His Name.
For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. GOD calls you to trust Him and what He has already done for you to pay your sIn debt. He has provided the only way of reconciliation with GOD, forgiveness from GOD, and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, to give you a new life in Christ. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life, now and always.
In Christ,
