Sure, He did something. But that was long ago when He walked on our earth. Now He is far away from us, ascended into Heaven, isolated on a throne among clouds in the sky.
They think that He's not really doing anything today. He's just sort of waiting around to return to earth.
But nothing could be further from the truth. So what is Jesus doing right now? Steve Lawson:
Christ is risen, ascended, enthroned, crowned, reigning, interceding, receiving, saving, hearing, answering, building, and preparing.
Jesus, our Sovereign King and Creating Savior, is actively working and operating in our world.
He is saving people.
He is receiving people into His kingdom.
He is answering prayer.
He is building His church.
He is reigning over every aspect of our lives and the world around us.
He is interceding for His people's prayers.
He is constantly receiving honor and glory and praise.
And He is preparing a place for His people.
Jesus is busy. Jesus is alive and working actively daily.
Don't think that when Jesus left us, He stopped being involved with us. The empty tomb was not the end. It was only the beginning.
With full hearts of gratitude, let us reflect on the work of Christ in our lives - and the world - today.
