Heb 11:6 BUT WITHOUT FAITH IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE HIM: for he that
cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that
diligently seek him.
My land lord once told me that all his effort as a believer
is geared towards making heaven. Please I want to help some of us who are still
with the same mindset of making heaven to know that NO MAN CAN MAKE HEAVEN BY
HIMSELF. Heb 12:2 LOOKING UNTO JESUS THE AUTHOR AND FINISHER OF OUR FAITH; who
for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and
is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Heb 11:6 was not written to the New Creation. The New creation
is not trying to please God everyday through their belief that God is and a
rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. The New Creation lives in the
realities of what God did for us in Christ when He raised Him from the dead. This
means the consciousness of our oneness with God which God Himself worked for us
in Christ.
Christ as God did not need faith to work with God. He had
seen Him in the first place (John 1: 18) No MAN HATH SEEN GOD AT ANY
TIME; THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared
him. Matt 1127 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and NO MAN
KNOWETH THE SON, BUT THE FATHER; NEITHER KNOWETH ANY MAN THE FATHER, SAVE THE
SON, AND HE TO WHOMSOEVER thE SON WILL REVEAL HIM For that reason God
declared that He was pleased with Him before Christ ever began His ministry. Christ
did not come to please God for Himself
(Matt 3: 17) And lo a voice from heaven,
saying, This is my beloved Son, IN WHOM I AM WELL PLEASED …CCHRIST. He came
to please God for man so that God will be pleased with man forever IN
HIM …CHRIST .So we do not need to be striving with ourselves everyday
trying to please God to be acceptable in His sight. Someone did that job on our
behalf. Hallelujah!. JUST BE IN CHRIST. Romans 8: 1 ¶ There is therefore NOW NO
CONDEMNATION TO THEM WHICH ARE IN CHRIST Jesus, who walk not after the flesh,
but after the Spirit.
LOOKING UNTO JESUS…. We should stop looking at ourselves. If
we could make heaven on our own Christ would not have come. Look away from your
fault finding demeanors. Christ began the journey and endedthe journey for man
so that we could live qualified lives. This life is in Him. Outside Him there
is no life. I am happy that I am in Him. God is pleased with me forever because
Christ is the author and the finisher of my faith. I am looking unto Christ
.Thank you Jesus.
