I walked my son to his school recently. As we walked, he turned to look at me on several occasions. On one of those occasions, he had that "I am so glad and happy that you are walking with me to school" look.
I was so touched by that simple gesture. It meant so much to me that a simple act of walking with him to school brings so much joy to him. I was just holding his little hand and singing and talking with him. Just the two of us without his mother. It was a very enjoyable moment which I treasured very much. And it is something I love to do even though I don't want it to become a pattern for him as his grandmother will be the primary guardian to bring him to and from school eventually.
It dawned on me how Abba Father enjoys our every little appreciation of Him in our lives. He smiles when we give thanks to Him in everything. For it is His desire to see us fulfilled in every area of our lives. He loves us so much that He sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to bore all our punishment for our sins so that we, through His perfect sacrifice at the cross, can draw near to Him.
Through the finished work at the cross by Christ Jesus, we are made the righteousness of God in Christ. We can come to the throne of grace in times on need to cry out Abba Father! It is His delight to answer all our prayers. It brings Him joy when we are enjoying His providence. Most importantly, it brings Him great joy when we enjoy Jesus!
For Jesus is God's central focus. Everything was created through and for Jesus. We are made for His enjoyment. And He wants us to prosper in everything as our soul prospers. At the cross, He has provided for our every need. The bible says the Lord is our Shepherd and we shall not be in want. God will exceeding and abundantly meet our every need and want and what we can think of!
If we are dealing with some terminal diseases, know that Jesus has already bore those diseases on His very own body so that we can have robust health this very moment. We are not trying to be healed. We are already the HEALED of the Lord. Know this truth and appropriate it in our lives for by His stripe, we are the healed of the Lord.
If we are facing some insurmountable debts, know that Jesus was made poor at the cross that we through poverty shall be made rich. We are already rich in the spiritual realm. We are rich in the physical realm as well. I am not saying all of us are multi-millionaires. I am referring to the fact we can enjoy and give thanks for whatever we already have, regardless of how little it may be, and more shall be added to our lives. See the abundance of God richness in our lives instead of lack.
A prince lives according to his inheritance of his father's kingdom. We are children of God and we live according to the richness of Heaven! Just enjoy the Father's love and see His grace abounds greatly toward us. Hallelujah!
