Jesus never sinned, nor was He ever sick.

Why is this important? Because He made a divine trade.

Through the beating He took before the cross, Jesus put on your sickness so you could put on His divine health.

At the cross, Jesus put on your sin so you could put on His righteousness.

Then Jesus rose from the dead, and we rose with Him. We are seated together in Heavenly places. We are in Christ, and He is in us.

This is your reality as soon as you choose to believe what the scriptures say about all these things.

You are not waiting. It’s already been done.

As Christians, we’re to expose evil.

So, we talk about it. It’s the logical way to reveal evil to those who are in the dark.

But what if that’s not what God meant?

In Ephesians 5:11, we are told to expose the worthless deeds of evil and darkness. Then, in the very next verse, we are told that it is shameful to even talk about these things.

Okay. So, if we are not supposed to talk about it, how do we expose it?

Just keep reading, because the very next verse contains the answer: “They will be exposed when the light shines on them.”

Where does this light come from? Start at the beginning of the chapter, and you’ll find out that we are the light, but only when we walk according to the light.

The way we expose darkness is to live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ.

As children of light, we don’t have to say a word. We just have to show up. Our very presence exposes and drives out darkness.

"The love of many will grow cold..."

Jesus prophesied this as a plague of the last days.

A gaping void of patience and kindness. An overabundance of prideful boasting masked as standing for truth. Constantly irritated and rude about the latest thing.

Last week, it was NASA's moon mission.

This week, it's an AI-generated image Trump posted.

Next week, it'll be something else.

If you're not watchful, you'll be sucked in. Before you realize it, you'll be wrapped up in worldly arguments that have nothing to do with God's kingdom.

The Bible tells us not to be consumed by the affairs of this life, and to stay out of the abundance of foolish discussions that will arise in the last days.

It's time we heed the instruction and remain focused on reconciling people to God through Jesus Christ.

When I chose a life of sin, God pursued me.

Every time the thrill was over, He was there. But I had the wrong response.

Instead of running to Him for rescue, I chose to stay in guilt and shame. I listened to the enemy’s lies instead of being drawn in by the love of my Father.

It took a while, but one day I finally made the right choice. Instead of hiding from God, I ran to Him.

He didn’t shame me. He didn’t give me a look of disappointment. He didn’t tell me to earn my way back.

He rescued me on the spot and fully restored me as His son. He embraced me as if I never did anything wrong.

And now, many years later, I find myself living a life I don’t deserve. Everywhere I look, I see His blessings, and they just keep coming.

This isn’t just for me. It’s for you. God gave His son, Jesus Christ, to make way for you to be restored as a child of God.

God’s children are beyond blessed. There aren’t even words to describe the blessing we live in.

Most Christians live a much smaller life than God has for them.

All the while, something is stirring inside—a dream beyond what you can fully imagine.

The main hangup? The fear of going for it and it not coming to pass. What will people think?

We put our worldly reputation at risk when we dare to reach beyond the status quo.

It's pretty much guaranteed that the people around you will think you're crazy.

But get this: Their criticism is covering up the fear that's keeping them from reaching for the magnificence of God.

It doesn't matter what others think of you. Life for an audience of One. Dare to believe God for a life much bigger than you can even imagine.

You know that thing that seems impossible?

Ha. Its boast is laughable to God.

We need to rehearse these words of Jesus in Matthew 17:

With faith, nothing is impossible.

Yeah, but what about... don’t even go there. If you allow yourself to dream up exceptions to what Jesus said, everything will seem impossible.

When Jesus said “nothing is impossible,” He meant it. So, the only thing that remains is, will we believe Him?
