Daily Devotional. Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the Author and Finisher of our Faith; Who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the Right Hand of the throne of God. For consider Him that endured such contradiction of sinners against Himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. Hebrews 12:1-4. Christ, as a physical man, is an example for us to not give up, no matter what our coming days ahead look like. He showed us that the pain of the cross was not even worthy to be considered, WHEN COMPARED TO THE JOYFUL REJOICING OF GOING HOME TO THE HEAVENLY’S. All the Witnesses of this fact are lined up in Heaven waiting to greet every new “arrival” to again Testify to them, “Now you See and Understand why Christ told you to not worry or consider the pain and suffering you just went through to get you here, compared to what “Here” is, ETERNITY WITH CHRIST”. (And more,) “We’ve already died in Christ and we all will Testify to you still living, DON’T FEAR, DON’T WORRY ABOUT THIS THING CALLED DEATH, IT DOESN’T EVEN COME UP ON THE RADAR, from our Heavenly Perspective”. Just the fear of coming death with pain, IN THE MINDS OF SOME BELIEVERS, is enough for some to consider casting aside their “So great a Salvation”, DON’T DO IT, DON’T GIVE UP, IT’S ALL WORTH WHATEVER YOU GO THROUGH, TO GET HERE. COME ON, REJOICE, WE’RE ALL WAITING FOR YOU TO JOIN WITH US IN SO GREAT A CHORUS PRAISING OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR AS HE’S ALREADY PAID THE PRICE FOR US ALL TO BE HERE WITH HIM IN HEAVEN. And Know this, many of us barely felt the pain MAN tried to inflict on us as Christ Himself TOOK OUR PAIN SO WE DIDN’T HAVE TO. This is the Testimony of this Cloud of Witnesses, for you to, Be Blessed.
