Life Changing Moments with God

The day mom passed, I looked into my daily devotional and the reading seemed to have fit so perfectly that I want to share it. It is from David Jeremiah: "He shall see the labor of His soul, and be satisfied. Jesus said, "It is finished!". Bowing His head, He gave up His spirit. Father God, You made Jesus who knew no sin to be sin for me, that I might become righteous in Him. This people You have formed for Yourself; we shall declare Your praise. Now Your manifold wisdom might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places, according to the eternal purpose which You accomplished in Him, Christ Jesus my Lord. In the ages to come You might show the exceeding riches of Your grace in Your kindness toward me in Christ Jesus. Having believed, I was sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is the guarantee of my inheritance, to the praise of His glory. I am part of a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, Your own special people, that I may proclaim the praises of You who called me out of darkness into Your marvelous light. When Jesus' work on the cross was finished, my life eternal with You, my heavenly Father, began. Thank You for sending Jesus to die and make this relationship possible. May my life proclaim Your praises." Isaiah 53:11; John 19:30; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Isaiah 43:21; Ephesians 3:10-11; Ephesians 2:7; Ephesians 1:13-14; I Peter 2:9
