The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.
Jesus was Immanuel, God with us (
Matthew 1:23). He was no imitation, no knock off, and no clone; he was God with us, God in human flesh (
John 1:1-3,
14-18). To this day, he sustains all creation with his word - so much for "Mother Nature," it is brother Jesus, who sustains all things by his powerful word. And now, God-with-us has paid for our sins and is not just God-with-us, but he is also God-for-us, and is constantly at the Father's side to help us.
Precious
Lord, as you have so many times in the past, please take these humble human words and bring them to the Father as my friend and brother.* Thank you for your sacrifice for my sins. Thank you for your sustaining presence in our universe. Thank you for your daily intercession for me and my needs, and my brothers and sisters' needs. Thank you for being God-for-me at the Father's side. To the glorious, majestic, and holy God, who sent you, our Savior Jesus, be glory, honor, and adoration forever and ever. Amen.
