Salvation, An Event Or A Journey


Jesus in the mornin,' Jesus in the noon day, Jesus at supper time.
We were reminded that God's purpose in bringing the children of Israel out of Egyptian bondage (aka darkness/“sin”) was to deliver them into a place/land(of “Light”/Rest) promised; where He could manifest/demonstrate His faithfulness, and favour in-unto-and through them, that He saves; in the midst of the other nations.  [Pastor]

We underscore “out of” and “into,” to emphasize the “process” of salvation; being a deliverance “out of” darkness, and a translation “into” the kingdom of (God's) dear Son; as a precursor to Abba's admonition to us to: “Walk in the Light, (as children of the Light), as He is ...the Light.”
[Col 1:13; Eph 5:8; 1 Jn 1:7]

 In like manner, our salvation is more than an “event” (a milestone in our life and times), but the first step in a “journey” in the earth; with Jesus, as “the author, and the finisher, of our faith.” After all, God is not a man, that He should lie; neither ...repent: Has He not spoken? And shall He not do as He has spoken?
[Heb 12:2; Num 23:19]
 ThenSingsMySoul:
 JUST A CLOSER WALK WITH THEE.
GRANT IT, JESUS, IS OUR PLEA.
DAILY WALKING CLOSE TO THEE.
LET IT BE, DEAR LORD, LET IT BE.
