GOD'S FRESCO Part Two

Divine Fresco; a work commissioned by the will of God the Father, paid for by the blood of  Jesus Christ and wrought by the power of the Holy Spirit.
This work is not for sale at any price.

The heavenly host witnessed in hushed silence as God created the heavens and the earth.  Now they sing praises, as they behold the colors of the fresco. Human eye truly has never seen the magnificent colors that God is using on this work, after all things on earth are just shadows of  the heavenly.  This divine fresco is alive, for it is comprised of living spiritual beings, it absolutely pulsates with the power of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit is the Giver of spiritual gifts, He determines where each believer is placed in Kingdom work.  There is nothing haphazard about this work, so detailed is His work that even the very steps are planned for each believer individually! What is the depth of God's indescribable love for the world? To measure that you would have to know how wide and deep was the blood of His beloved Son that was poured out on that little hill outside Jerusalem. The answer is incomprehensible, unfathomable to our finite minds.

God is intimately acquainted with every aspect of our lives and His eyes are always upon us. He may break us but He will never bruise us, He takes our smoldering wicks and breathes life, zeal and fire into our tired bodies. He may withdraw the awareness of His presence but know He has promised to never leave us or forsake us.  He began the good work in us when we were born again and He will finish what He started in us! Wonder of wonders He never stops loving us for it pleases Him to do so.

Therefore comfort one another, encourage one another, build one another up, exhort one another and above all, love one another even as God has loved us. We must love Him and place Him above all other loyalties in our lives, love Him with all of our heart, mind, soul and strength! May our personal relationship with Jesus Christ usurp every other demand on our heart, our mind, our time and our money. Absolutely nothing and no one is more important in our life than our relationship with Christ! 


This divine fresco will soon be finished and we as believer's in Christ are all an intricate, vital part of it. The time is short and the image is clearer now than ever before.  By now I'm sure you know, you've figured it out, God's ordained fresco could only be one thing; the image of His beloved Son, our Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ! This has always been God's plan for us, it has never changed. "For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son..." Romans 8:29.  

All of us together in unity are being changed into Christ's image, one believer at a time. We must be about our Father's business, by working in His harvest fields, reaping souls by witnessing to the gospel of Jesus Christ. God alone knows exactly where each new soul that is saved will be placed in His fresco. Our part is to gather as many souls as we can before night comes when no one can work. And no one but God knows when that is. May we labor shoulder to shoulder to bring every lost soul in before it is too late.
