Wall Repairs

We are God’s work in this earth, the wall and the gates to His kingdom. Scriptures speak of us as ambassadors.

2 Corinthians 5:20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.
21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

Here we see a couple very important points. First is, we are ambassadors for our Messiah. We are His representatives, His mouthpiece. People watch and listen to us to see if we do and say the things the scriptures say. But there is another important point here. We see we are to be reconciled to God.

Paul is encouraging us to get right with God. He even tells us the way that is accomplished. It is through the righteousness we get from our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). He was made sin for us, but He knew know sin. In a way, we traded places. Because of the work He did at the cross, He got our sin and we got His righteousness before our Father, Yahuah. It was the deal of the century for us.

Our job today, and likely everyday, is to keep working at walking in God’s ways. We need to continue to find the path that Yahuah (Lord) put before us. When we stumble we put bad bricks in the wall, or put them in the wall badly. We fix those bad spots in the wall by repenting, by turning back to Yahuah and He will turn to us.

Today, let’s all continue to repair our walls, returning to God for forgiveness and direction.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. We love and appreciate You, for You have done so much for us. We need Your kingdom. Praise the name Yahuah! Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our sins. Heal up the broken walls in our hearts and minds. Deliver us from the evil that has stolen and is stealing from us. Come in Your power and might, and crush the works of the enemy. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.
