Look To JESUS
"who led you through that great and terrible wilderness, in which were fiery serpents and scorpions and thirsty land where there was no water; who brought water for you out of the flinty rock; - Deuteronomy 8:15
There are demonic forces of darkness in this world like the fiery serpents in the wilderness.
And the people spoke against God and against Moses: "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water, and our soul loathes this worthless bread." So the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many of the people of Israel died. Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, "We have sinned, for we have spoken against the LORD and against you; pray to the LORD that He take away the serpents from us." So Moses prayed for the people. Then the LORD said to Moses, "Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and it shall be that everyone who is bitten, when he looks at it, shall live." So Moses made a bronze serpent, and put it on a pole; and so it was, if a serpent had bitten anyone, when he looked at the bronze serpent, he lived. - Numbers 21:5-9
All of mankind have been bitten by satanic powers and are suffering from the sickness of sin. The only hope for mankind is JESUS Who came in the flesh, without sin, Who has overcome Satan.
"Look to Me, and be saved, All you ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other. - Isaiah 45:22
Every tribe, tongue, colour and creed has the hope of salvation by looking to GOD spiritually.
"No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven. "And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, "that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. - John 3:13-16
The LORD JESUS CHRIST was falsely condemned to die as a criminal.
He was nailed to the cross and was lifted up hanging on the cross between heaven and earth.
Thus He has made a way for man to be reconciled to the Holy Almighty GOD.
"Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out. "And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself." This He said, signifying by what death He would die. - John 12:31-33
Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, "Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death. - Revelation 12:10-11
Satan, the author of evil, lies and deception was crushed under the cross of CHRIST.
Who shall bring a charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. - Romans 8:33-34
Now the LORD JESUS is making intercession to GOD in heaven on behalf of those who come to Him in faith.
Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 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 has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. - Hebrews 12:1-2
When we repent of our sin and turn to the LORD JESUS, we begin our journey of faith.
As we continue to look to Him, He leads us on and keeps us by His grace until we finish our course on earth.
At the end of our life He will receive us to glory!
What a great victory He has gained for us!
What great glory awaits us!!
Look to JESUS and be saved today.
