"My Redeemer Lives!"

“My Redeemer Lives!”

I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end He will stand on the earth.  And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God; I myself will see Him with my own eyes---I, and not another.   How my heart yearns within me!      Job 19:25-27



Job was a man of EXCEPTIONAL FAITH, in his time of GREATEST DESPAIR, he seems to be at the pinnacle of his FAITH when he declared that he KNEW that his “REDEEMER LIVES!” and in the END of the age, He will STAND on the earth, as KING of KINGS and LORD of LORDS.  



Job BELIEVED that GOD was his REDEEMER, but it was to be God, cloaked in flesh and blood and skin, that being the LORD JESUS CHRIST.   Job wanted people to know that his suffering wasn’t because of some sin that he committed, but it was a TESTING of his FAITH.  In ALL the SUFFERING that Job experienced, he STILL could proclaim; “I KNOW MY REDEEMER LIVES, and that in the END He will STAND on the EARTH.”



Job had little if any HOPE in this life, but he was SURE that he would see his REDEEMER GOD, face to face, in his AFTER-LIFE, because he proclaims that, after his DEATH, when his earthly body has deteriorated and he has his HEAVENLY BODY, he, in his flesh, WILL SEE God;  “I myself WILL SEE Him, with my OWN EYES---and not another.”  Then Job says: “How my HEART yearns within me!”   Do you KNOW that your REDEEMER LIVES?   Does your HEART YEARN within you, at the thought that JESUS is ALIVE, and that He is COMING BACK SOON?



If that doesn’t cause you to celebrate, then SOMETHING is WRONG.  If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to GOD, then you have NO REASON to CELEBRATE, the fact that the REDEEMER of ALL mankind LIVES and COMING BACK to STAND on the EARTH.   Instead you SHOULD FEAR, the thought of His RETURN.  Mainly because, you have REJECTED, the REDEEMER, God’s SON, JESUS CHRIST, and are living a SINFUL lifestyle, and headed for an ETERNITY in HELL, with all its HORRORS and NO WAY TO ESCAPE, after you’re there.  But God LOVES you and has a plan for you to ESCAPE HELL by:  TURNING AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURNING TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  CONFESSING your sin to Him, and asking Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  Then you MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and like Job, be able to proclaim: “I KNOW MY REDEEMER LIVES, and that in the END He will STAND on the EARTH.”  And ESCAPE HELL and GAIN an ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!
