Day 2 – Rise up – Jesus came to earth for you

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.” 1 John 1:1-4(KJV)
In this scripture, we see that Jesus was there from the beginning of everything. Everything was made through him, for life is in Him. Light is in Him. Without Jesus, nothing would have been made or created. He is the great creator; He is one with the Father and Holy Spirit and they are the creator of the universe.
Have you ever realized that this person, who was at the most High God’s side when everything was created, through whom everything was created, came to earth for you? He came down from heaven, the most wonderful place to be, to be tortured and mocked, to die the most painful death imaginable, on a cross, so that your sins can be forgiven. And do you know the best part? If you were the only one who repented and was saved through this deed, he would have still done the same thing. For you. You are special and loved, and this is the reason for you to rise up and continue on. To spread His good news to the world. When you feel tired, lost and like you have no reason to continue, remember this: He came to earth for you! You can rise up and continue forward for Him.
Prayer: Dear Jesus, thank you for coming to earth for me. Thank you for reminding me that you love me so much, that you died on the cross for me. Please help me to remember that you are reason enough for me to rise up and continue on my journey, for the plans you have for me are to prosper. I pray in your mighty name. Amen.
