“I AM” Resurrection Life You wrote Your glorious name across the heavens and it read You pronounced Your holy name to Your people and it was You posted Your powerful name at life’s valleys and dead-ends and
it was You spoke Your lovely name into fears and conflicts and it was
You whispered Your compassionate name into sorrow and brokenness
and it was You signed Your most beautiful name in blood upon our hearts and
it was “Jesus said: I am the resurrection. Anyone who believes in
me, even though that person dies, will live, Now, as a climax to our theme, the Holy Spirit directs our attention in the last chapter of the Bible to a breathtaking and vibrant truth: one day God’s name is to become our name! Just think of it. At this moment all the privileges of His name are ours—salvation, healing, cleansing, sanctification. But in eternity all these characteristics, instead of being available to us, will become an integral part of us because when we see God we shall be like Him (1 John 3:2). Then His virtue will become ours, His victory will become ours, His nature will become ours and, what is more, His Name will become ours. Thank you Lord God for all that You are— |
