Matthew 28:16-20
Let’s continue to pray for Jim and Marty.
“Notice what you notice.” Jesus’ Great Commission… Something in today’s reading struck me differently: All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. (v. 18b) There are a number of occasions in the Gospels where Satan is referred to as the “ruler of this world” – John 12:31, 14:30, 16:11; Luke 4:6. With Jesus’ death and resurrection, Satan’s rule is now over and done with. All authority has been given to Jesus. The apostle Paul tells us later that Jesus’ authority over sin and death has now been passed on to us: But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ. (I Cor. 15:57). It’s done! All we have to do is live it! GLORY!
Slava Bohu!
