Grace Delivers Us from All Graves
UV 4166/10000 Grace Delivers Us from All Graves
Then you will know (with confidence) that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves and made you come up out of your graves, My people.
Ezekiel 37 v 13
The Lord delivers us not only from our physical graves once we are dead but the emotional, intellectual, spiritual, financial, professional, relational, familial graves too. He is the Life and the Resurrection and His power of resurrection is working in us for His glory, by His grace, all the time and reviving, restoring us from the dead, the inactive, the ineffective, the powerless, the decadent, the lifeless in all the realms we are engaging in. He does it all the time as we are His people and He is committed to our total well being in the here and now as well as in the hereafter, the eternal, the internal and the external. He sends His angels to remove the large boulder at the cave grave of all our domains.
By His reviving, restoring, resurrecting us, He gives us evidence and utmost confidence that not only He is the I Am, the self existent, uncreated Creator, the Source and Fountainhead of all life and wisdom and power but that He loves us and He desires to be good and do good to us in our limited, finite days even on Earth before He receives us to hold us close to His bosom. We realize that He alone is praiseworthy, belief-worthy, trustworthy, awesome I Am. He is the I Am who is all powerful, He is the Being who is all loving, He is the Being who is ever faithful, He is the Being who is ever wise and gentle.
The grave has no claim on us. He has declared us as His children, His representatives on Earth, His viceroys to exercise power and authority over the works of death of the enemy. Death held a sting for all mankind hitherto as it was the beginning of the great unknown. No one knew what lay beyond and behind it. It was irrevocable. Death or hamartia or tragic failing or falling came due to human sin and bondage to sin. But Christ, the first ever Conqueror of the grave, of death has removed the sting of both the grave and death. By His physical resurrection, Jesus rendered even ultimate physical death powerless, revocable, reversible and the doorway, the gateway to eternal, abundant, joy filled life in His presence.
