How Are You Representing Your Mediator?

It's time to wake up.   We keep sleep walking.   We walk around "stuff" with our eyes closed.   We walk around the truth with our friends and our family with fear of offending someone.    Yes .... we need to be aware of how we present God and His word to people ..... because we want Him to be presented in a way in which people can receive and understand who He is and what He desires to do in their lives.    But we can not and should not avoid bringing Him into our conversations and into our day to day walk based on fear of what others will think.    Remember the Jesus said in Mark 8:38 if we be ashamed of Him before man .... then He would be ashamed of us before the Father.    How sad it would be to have your Mediator .... the one who was sent just for you .... to be ashamed to represent you.   

Just think about it.    A Mediator is a link between two parties.   The two parties that Jesus represents are you and God.   He was sent just for us.   To provide us with a blood covering.    When someone is ashamed ... they feel guilt, reluctance, or disgrace based on something that has been done.    To disgrace means to lose your reputation or respect.    Do you really want to be in a place where Jesus feels guilty for what you have done after all He has done for you?   For your refusal to represent Him before those in your circle of influence.    

It's time to count the cost and value the word inside of you and what has be done for you.   Don't deny the one who died for you .... be sure you represent Him well.    Your representation of Him will play a part in His final representation of you.     Amen.....
