THE DAILY BLUEPRINT FOR 11-14-06
MARRIED TO CHRIST
JEREMIAH 3:14
Turn you backsliding children, says the Lord, for I am married to you; and I will take you one of a city, and two to a family, and I will bring you to Zion!
To the lost and dying of this world -such a statement like Married to Jesus would take on a misunderstood meaning - there are those who have made movies that try and say that Jesus was married and had children - I am afraid that no where in scripture is this found - but today I want to talk about the fact that all of us that are in CHRIST are also married to Christ - yes that includes the males of us as well - but not as the world sees such a union - but as God sees it! We are the bride of Christ - HE is the groom - He has married His righteousness with our sin and causes us to be forgiven and set free -just like the marriage of a man and a woman -we become one in CHRIST - we must live in such a way that brings honor to Christ in much the same way a Bride should bring honor to her Groom - once we come to know JESUS we are no longer our own - and just like the last name of the Bride will change - our identity will be forever ingrossed in Christ - and HIM alone - We are married to Christ -lets await HIS second coming as a Bride awaits her Groom!
One day HE will come back to take us home - one day the Bride will be finally united the with Groom - JESUS our LORD!
amen!
A side note: JESUS has claimed us as HIS OWN - and HE Knws what He is purchasing and deemed us worth saving - JESUS broke through the past to bring us a future with HIM forever!
With CHRIST , we are united with GOD!
