57 “… for it is an awesome thing that I do with you.”

 Exodus 34:10

 God makes a covenant with His people and tells them that there will be nothing like it is all the earth. It will generate awe and wonder from everyone who hears of it. It will be beyond any human idea or any thought processes of human beings. God is going to put on a demonstration of His power that will show His amazing love and grace like nothing else. It was conceived in the past ages of eternity before the world was made and was a compact between the three persons of the godhead. The Father the Son and the Holy Spirit worked together to make a plan to save rebellious man even before man and women were created.

 The Eternal Son of God was to come into the world and give His life as a ransom for the people that God had chosen for Him. God was going to save a huge family of people who would be brought safely to heaven through the shed blood of the Redeemer. No human being could think of such a rescue mission nor have the ability to carry it out. It was the most majestic and gracious act of God that there could ever be, that sinful people could now be redeemed and brought near to God. Sin could be forgiven and peace between God and man restored, now and forever. It was the greatest act of salvation ever and is open to all who will repent and believe.

 Sinner, will you not bow your knees to Him who has provided such an escape from certain hell?

Saint will you not willingly obey every day and follow your Lord closely?
