Let
us take a look at Jesus. Let us pray that the Holy Spirit
may unveil him and present him to us clearly. Now we see
him. We see him as our all and as in all. Can you see him
thus? Is he everything to you? and is he in everything
that comes to you?
Let us take a view of Jesus through
two texts of Scripture. First, "And hath put all
things under his feet." Eph. 1:22. We see him as our
protector. Christ has conquered all, and God has put all
things under his Son's feet. In all the world there is no
evil thing that can harm the child of God. Jesus cares for
his children. How safe we feel! He is our refuge, our
strong tower, our buckler, and our shield.
Discouragements, doubts, fears, disease, Satan, and all
that would antagonize us are under his feet and so can
never do us harm.
Second, "The Father loveth the
Son, and hath given all things into his hand." Every
good thing is in the hand of Jesus. He stands ready to
give them to his children. There is not a need you can
ever have but Jesus has in his hand something with which
to supply that need. His loving hand is extended to you.
It contains something that will meet all your needs in
life. Praise the Lord!
Nothing can harm us, for every
harmful and harming thing is beneath the feet of our Lord.
So we need not fear. We can never fail to have all our
needs supplied, for Jesus stands with out-stretched hand
to give just what we need just when we need it. Do you see
Jesus as such? Open your eyes wide, look and live, and be
happy and free.
