God Did It

God did it. All by Himself. Without any help. He made it from scratch. God knows how to create beauty from nothing. He knows how to plan without all the pieces fitting together. He knows how to organize the mess and rearrange the room according to how He envisions it. God orchestrates creation to rise to perfection.

“But once He has made His decision, who can change His mind? Whatever He wants to do, He does. So He will do to me whatever He has planned. He controls my destiny.”
‭‭Job‬ ‭23‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭

Jesus runs the universe and so He can save the universe.

Jesus orchestrates the redemption of life by doing it His way.

“But Jesus said to Peter, “Put your sword back into its sheath. Shall I not drink from the cup of suffering the Father has given me?” John 18:11

Jesus did it. He drank the cup. He took our afflictions. He saved us from sin. Only He could do this in order to bring about salvation for all who come to Him in faith.

Jesus takes credit for salvation of the world. For He alone is Savior. No one takes credit for what God alone orchestrates. He empowers us. It’s His Holy Spirit working through us.

We let Him lead the way.

“Joyful are people of integrity, who follow the instructions of the Lord. Joyful are those who obey His laws and search for Him with all their hearts. They do not compromise with evil, and they walk only in His paths.”
‭‭Psalm 119‬:‭1‬-‭3‬ ‭

We can trust the path of Jesus because He designs it.

Step off the throne of your life, beloved. Let Jesus take that place. He knows how to run it far better and He promises blessings to those who belong to Him.

Jesus loves to save you. Then, He loves to empower you. Then, He loves to commission you. Then, He loves to work through you in every way because you are His hands and feet. We give Him all the glory for what He does through us, because we know it was Him who inspired us to emulate Him in the earth. Everywhere we go, we take Jesus with us.

“God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Not a result of works, so that no one may boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9

We cannot boast in our own efforts, but we boast in Jesus who empowered us with His Holy Spirit.

 “As for me, may I never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because of that cross, my interest in this movie world has been crucified, and the world’s interest in me has also died. It doesn’t matter whether we have been circumcised or not. What counts is whether we have been transformed into a new creation. May God’s peace and mercy be upon all who live by this principle; they are the new people of God.” Galatians 6:14-16

Jesus makes a person new at the moment of salvation. Then they are empowered to live for Jesus the rest of their life. We boast in Jesus because He is our King and He is worthy of that glory.

In Galatians 6, the apostle Paul taught the believers that they needed Jesus in order to be made new and transformed. Following the law cannot save because Jesus came to fulfill the law, initiating a new covenant of salvation. In Jesus alone.

“He only is my rock and my salvation; He is my defense; I shall not be greatly moved.” Psalm 62:2

Jesus leads your life every step of the way. He is the only rock. The only Savior. The only defense. The only One who anchors us. He leads us where He wants us to go.

Our lives belong to Jesus, and thus, we must submit to His leading everyday. When He says go, we go. When He says stay, we stay. When He says move, we move. He is our God and we follow Him.
