THE REDEEMER HAS COME







Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ! As I was just reading the story of the "Good Samaritan " in  Luke 10vs 30-35, the Holy Spirit dropped something in my spirit to share. This is a common passage of scripture, where Jesus was teaching about relationships. The message I want to share is entitled "The Redeemer Has Come!"
 
  Jesus said a man fell upon robbers who beat him and left him for dead. Man is made of spirit and flesh. When sin came in, it left us spiritually dead, so the other half side of the man was dead. If this man had  failed to get attention on time, the other half would have eventually died as well.
If the Spirit is dead, your flesh doesn't last, it also dies.                                       
 
While this man was in this condition, there came a priest who passed by on the other side. Later on there came again a Levite who also passed by on the other side. These two were going to church, but had no time for a stranger and desperate person.
 
 However, after the two men of God had both passed, there came a Samaritan who didn't  pass on the other side.
 He came to him and bandaged the wounded man's wounds and poured oil and wine on him. 
 
The priest when he came he had no solution for the wounds and  state of the wounded man. The priest represents a church. No church can pull you out of sin. That's the reason why some commit adultery, fornicate, lie, steal and do all sorts of things and still go to church every Sunday.
 
 Some of us have positions in church, we sit in front chairs and  in sin we command front positions. Church is not the answer to a sinner. It passes on the other side. That is a priest - a person of law. Law has no compassion and love.
 
 Then came a Levite who also did the same as the priest. A Levite represents a pastor. Again the pastor is not  an answer to the sinner. We all sin, but we have our pastors who pray for us, yet we live in sin. Having a pastor or Church doesn't guarantee one peace of the presence of God. We all need Jesus to survive storms of life.

After the priest and the  Levite had gone past, there came one who belonged to another country, a good Samaritan. He disembarked from his horse/ mule and attended to the wounds of the wounded man. The man was not empty handed, he had oil, which represents the Holy Spirit and wine, which is the  word of God (Matthew 4vs4).The man had money as well, which  is the provision from God. Ecclesiastes 10:19 says, " .........money answereth all things."
 
 A spiritually dead person, before anything, needs the word of God and the Holy Spirit. Don't ever make a mistake of establishing your relationship with the church and pastor, before receiving Jesus first.
 
The Bible says, when he saw him he had compassion. When Jesus saw us wounded by the devil and left for dead, he had compassion and left his kingdom to attend to our wounds. When he was attending to the man he identified with him and put him on his own mule/ horse. Jesus  Christ didn't only take us out of sin, he also put us in His kingdom.      That is on his own mule. Remember, King David put Solomon in his  own rule.
 
 It is only the word of God that raises a dead man. That is wine. ( Psalm 107vs20, Acts 3vs 5-7).            That is the reason Jesus in His first miracle, turned water into wine. If a dead man receives wine he resurrects. And if he resurrects and gets oil , he shines.

 He was then taken to an Inn, that is now the church.  So its Jesus first, then church later. We have many people that are in Church without Jesus. This is why there is no increase and growth in the body of Christ.

 A church attends to the people who are brought by Jesus. In Acts 2vs41-44 the Bible says, they continued together breaking bread and fellowshipping and the Lord added many to the church. ( Acts 2vs46-47).  Pastors can only shepherd and look after people who are saved by Jesus Christ.

 The Samaritan even paid two denari to the Inn keeper. So let me preach the gospel of Jesus, I have two denari from the Lord. Wine, oil, the Samaritan's mule and the denari and then the Inn, the devil has no chance, you shall live again.

 Your marriage is being revived and restored again.
Your business is coming up again.
 You will make it in this land of the living, before you go to heaven or depart mother earth. ( Psalm 27vs13-14).
Your health will be restored again.  ( Joel 2vs25-27)                   
Your dignity shall be restored again.                 
Your work is coming up again.                           
Your relationship is being restored again.          
You are now riding upon the Samaritan's mule, no - one shall stop you.

You have been marred and scarred all over, but now the wounds have been healed and cleansed by Jesus's precious blood. ( 1John 1vs7).       
Broken hearted people's spirits have healed  and comforted  by the Redeemer. ( Jesus the good Samaritan).    ( Psalm 34vs17-19).
                     
 A Redeemer has come, one who does not choose your colour, education, tribe, race and status, but loves and cares for us all.
When Jesus comes in your life, things change and there will be a turn around in your life.

 Come as you are into the Inn ( church).
 Jesus is waiting is to attend to you all the time ( MATTHEW 11vs28-30).
In whatever condition you are in, he accepts and cares for you as you are.( Isaiah 1:18).
Cast all your cares upon Him, He will sustain and take care of you ( ! Peter 5vs7, Psalm 55vs22).
                      
Be restored, comforted and encouraged in the name of Jesus.              

 
May God richly bless you all!
