There has never been an agreement that gave more
love to the beneficiary than the New Covenant. A born-again believer receives
hundreds of gifts here on earth and inexplicable gifts in eternity. The
resources of God are unfathomable and they have been made available to the
redeemed person through Jesus Christ. This is the truth of God’s spiritual
world and it only requires our trust and dedication.
When Jesus comes to live in our heart it means that our
spirit is joined with His. This is the way we become a part of God’s family. Our
whole new family revolves around His pure love. The Bible says our roots will
grow down into the love of God. This will give us great spiritual strength
because of the Spirit that is living inside of us. People are not really
complete in their fallen condition. Entering into the love of God is the basis
for the completion of our soul.
The love of God was put on display when Jesus gave Himself
to be killed on the cross. We can join in the Savior’s death and be allowed the
opportunity of being a part of God’s love for eternity. In this world we can
become a vessel that is filled with holy love so that the Spirit is able to
direct us in a loving life. When we are used to lead another person to God it
will be our privilege to see that soul enjoy heaven forever.
People usually feel as though they are not good
enough to live this privileged life of love. This is because our original
condition in life is certainly unworthy. However the power contained in this
new covenant of love is infinite and will change our life. During the last 2000
years redeemed people have tried to see how far they could push their faith.
None of these great saints ever recorded that they had reached the end of God’s
power or ability.
Everything that happens in our redeemed life is for
the glory of God. If we want to respect the new covenant we should work hard to
carry out all of God’s plans. John said that if we don’t love others it proves
that we are not a Christian. This is completely logical when we understand how
that God’s love for us is the basis for the whole new covenant. May we spend
our life glorifying the Lord and enjoying His love!
