Purified Hearts From The Father
Those Who’s Joy Becomes Complete!!
Transformed Children Who Have Found The Good News!!
When a period of feasting has run its course, Job would make arrangements for them to be purified. Early in the morning he would sacrifice a burnt offering for each of them, thinking, “perhaps my children have sinned and cursed God in their hearts’. This was Job’s regular custom. Job 1: 5
When reading this today, I thought what a wonderful Father.
While Job is an allegory of Jesus Christ, in this statement, I see our Heavenly Father revealed.
For Jesus went around revealing God our Father in Heaven to everyone and the way to get to Him.
So while the later chapter God reveals Himself to all people through words, we can see our Heavenly Father’s heart in Job’s actions here.
Job was concerned about His children.
Job was interceding on behalf of His kids.
He was seeking to protect them, to purify them.
Even, if they didn’t know, He was.
That He was routinely seeking to bless His kids.
That He was constantly seeking to make offerings, sacrifices, to save His Kids spiritually.
And we never read that they knew or asked for it.
Job was doing this out of His abundant loving heart for His kids.
And in this, I see my Father’s heart!!
For He sent Jesus Christ down to us.
For He sent Jesus Christ to live the blameless life for us, that we could not achieve with our Adam and Eve Hearts.
For He sent Jesus Christ to pay for all mankind’s trespasses against God’s laws due to our natural heart.
And He did this before we knew we needed this.
That He sent Jesus to do this, to pay for us, to save us, before we were even made aware of this need.
That He sent Jesus to give us a purified heart.
And He did this for all mankind.
And then He sent His Holy Spirit out to call all people to this fact. His Spirit wooing us, calling us, leading us to this offering.
The Holy Spirit of God leading us to His intercession for our spiritual protection.
The Holy Spirit interceding to call us to receive this sacrifice, the offering of Jesus Christ, our payment, completed by Him, for any trespasses of our heart against our Heavenly Father.
The Holy Spirit calling us to receive this new purified heart of eternal life, overflowing in love towards God our Father, and Jesus our Savior.
May we know that we know that we know the love of our Father who sent us Jesus Christ to be our payment for any heart trespasses against Him-our Father.
May we know that we know that we know this payment of sacrifice sent by God our Father, fulfilled by Jesus Christ on the cross, pays for any trespass of our hearts, from our inception in the womb, until we pass from this life, giving us a new purified heart of God’s love.
May we know that we know that we know our Most Loving Father whose love reaches higher than the heavens, offers all people this free gift of purity, of protection, of life, for all eternity, that we simply receive by speaking the words, Jesus is my Lord.
