Before the Throne of God

Hebrews 2:15: “and might free those who through fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives.”

Father, I praise you and give you and thanks for deliverance from the fear of death. Because by Your Son’s blood the Throne of Judgement has been turned into the great place of fellowship, praise and acceptance.

Matthew 19:28: Jesus said to them, "Truly I tell you, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

The Twelve and all who have put their trust in Jesus Christ will see that day of deliverance and renewal.

Romans 12:1-2: Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Oh, how beautiful is that place of joy! For there the fruit of the victory of the Cross and the glory of His resurrection have exposed Satan’s seducing power once and for all. There we will behold the infinite display of Your power and glory. Through Jesus’ death for my sins, you have gloriously triumphed over death and delivered captives out of slavery. Hallelujah!
