1 Timothy 2:5-7 (New King James Version)

5] For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, 6] who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time, 7] for which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle-I am speaking the truth in Christ and not lying-a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

Jesus, Our Mediator

Jesus is our mediator. He has bridged the gap between God and mankind through His death on the cross and through His glorious resurrection three days later (insert Hallelujah chorus here). How amazing is that?! Through Christ we have forgiveness, through Christ we have access to God, through Christ we have freedom from the bondage and slavery of sin, and through Christ the insurmountable debt of our sin is paid in full. Truly there is no other name on earth, in heaven, or in the great vastness of the universe that can compare to the glorious name of Jesus. Praise the name of Jesus!

FOR TODAY: Spend time thanking Jesus for being your mediator.
