“Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure …” – Psalm 16:9
God saw the oppression of the weak and heard the groaning of the needy, bound in the chains of sin and wickedness. Thus, He came to us as a man among men. He arose and took upon Himself of a lowly servant, He emptied Himself and became obedient unto the death of the cross. (Philippians 2)
He identified with us completely, yet without sin and became our protector and deliverer from sin.
God has always been the champion of the weak and needy.
The Christ-event and the passion of the cross make it clear that every man, woman, and child is in need of a savior.
We are all oppressed – even if we are oppressors. We each writhe in agony for someone to intervene in our darkness and bring us into the light.
The cross, was, is, and always will be for you.
