Hebrews 12:3
“Consider Him”…One of the most profound rescues of despair in this universe, when done in the right way. There is nothing on this earth that will place me or you in any kind of suffering worse than what Christ endured for you and me, before and during the cross of Calvary. Nothing.. Ever.. So…..
When sleep won’t come…Consider Him
When health is elusive..Consider Him
When someone hurts you..Consider Him
When you are tired..Consider Him
When the pain is great..Consider Him
When temptation shows up..Consider Him
When (you fill it in..)Consider Him
What I do when I consider Him, is to take my eyes off of me, (my problems, my self) and place them squarely on Him.See, our enemy tries to get us to wallow in our sorrows, our pain, our self.
If he can get us to do that, he takes us out of the fight, gives us stress, depression, and makes us ineffective for the Kingdom. He shuts us down.
Don’t let him do that to you!!
Friends, let’s keep our eyes on Jesus.He delivered you. It’s done..He hit a home run for you on that cross. Then He tagged home plate for you in His resurrection!! He’s waiting there for you..You are now free to run the bases of life with freedom and with joy!!
verse 3 – Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.
