The Complete Work of the Lord


And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. (Mat 1:21)

This is the message carried by an angel; hence it is an important if not the most important news for mankind. We cannot miss the Gospel that YHWH Saves (Jesus) us from sin and has come to accomplish the complete work of salvation through the person of the Lord Jesus Christ. Many would want Jesus to bless their family, turn around economic situations, heal sicknesses, bring peace into relationship, etc but we can miss the message from on high if we fail to allow Yehoshua or Yeshua Messiah to do His complete work in us. Blessings, healings, restoration and other benefits are not wrong by themselves, as a matter of fact, the Lord wants to undo what the devil has ravaged in lives. We cannot afford to miss the original heavenly intent and eternal purpose. Salvation from sin is by faith, let there be no doubt about that truth, however it is up to us to relinquish our right to the pleasure of sin (Heb 11:25) and allow complete cleansing to take its full course so that we might live through Him (1 John 4:9).
