Daily Devotions
March 5th, 2014 by Pastor SolleyRom 14:11-12 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. 12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
Here are so sobering words, that every knee shall bow before Christ and every one will give an account of him or herself to the God. But what we give an account of? There are several things for which we will give an account as we stand before God. The first being what have we done with the Lord Jesus Christ and His sacrifice for us on the cross. When God sent His Son into the world it was because He loved all, when Jesus went to the cross He went for all, when Jesus arose from the grave he did it for all, when salvation is offered it is offered to all. God does not want some and not all, does not love some and not all, does not offer salvation to some and not all, Jesus died for all because all are in need of salvation. What have you done with Jesus? That will be the first thing God calls for us to give an account of. Man has found many ways to heaven he thinks going all the way back to the tower in Genesis that was to reach into heaven. Today he works, he gives, he plays church, he lifts himself up, he finds many different ways to heaven. Yet the Bible points to one way, one door to heaven, the Lord Jesus Christ. Christ died for all and all will give an account of what they have done with Him. I pray this morning that you have repented from sin and turned to Jesus as the only way, truth, and life that leads to heaven. One day you will be called to give an account before God.
