Back in the 80’s Bart and Justine are sitting at the kitchen table when Justine notices, “WOW! I’ve had a few minutes of no pain! What a Wonderful feeling that is!”
Quickly the devil plants a thought in her mind, “I deserve to hurt. I didn’t listen to God when He showed me the dangers of motorcycles!”
Fifteen years later, a new pain develops her tailbone making life more difficult. Realizing she needs help she cries out, “God, we are moving to a house with 2 acres. I need to be able to work in the yard.”
God replies, “Go to the radio station, ask them pray for you.”
Obeying, Justine asks for prayer, but nothing happened. Leaving the station she questions,
“What’s up, God? Nothing happened!”
God impressed upon Justine, “JESUS ALREADY PAID, you don’t have to pay!”
Seeing the cross, Justine grasps the concept, what Jesus did trumps what she didn’t do.
“JESUS ALREADY PAID! I DON’T HAVE TO PAY!”
The pain left before she reached her vehicle.
1 Peter 2:24 He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed.
