MY FRIENDS, GODS REACH HAS NO LIMITS!!

Sinner, how far has been our decent at times into total destruction? But what is so amazing, no matter how far we have strayed, there are no limits to where our God will go to rescue us. “From the mighty mountains of New York.

From the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania. From the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado. From the curvaceous slopes of California. From Stone Mountain of Georgia. From Lookout Mountain of Tennessee and from every hill and molehill of Mississippi.” (M. L. King Jr.)

He reaches, Just to let his children know that His “grace is sufficient for His strength is made perfect [in each of our] weaknesses.” 2 Cor. 12:9 (NKJV) Consistent with this, “If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them wanders away, what will he do?

Won’t he leave the ninety-nine others on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost? And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he will rejoice over it more than over the ninety-nine that didn’t wander away! In the same way, it is not my heavenly Father’s will that even one of these little ones should perish. Matt. 18:12-14 (NKJV)

My friends one of the definitions of lost is “Insensible to, or lost to all sense of duty” In other words if we define lost around one’s spirituality, we are not just lost in regards to trying to find our way back home, but we also become lost in regards to our responsibility and opportunity towards where Christ is trying to lead, as we become numb to the fact that we are even lost.

Therefore we cease in trying to find our way back. We become comfortable in our environment that the god of this world has made for us. His invitation is “All this I will give you, if you will bow down and worship me.” Matt. 4:9 (NIV) We then accept.

My friends, Christ was made this same offer from Satan. So He knows how to defeat the enemy and He has also “made a way of escape” for his children. That is why we must not forget His reach is limitless alone with His love and grace which are also limitless.

So He brings our attention to a song we may have sung as a child in Sabbath or Sunday school. “Jesus loves me this I know, for the bible tells me so. Or it could have been a song we sung as a congregational hymn in church which says;

“There were ninety and nine that safely lay In the shelter of the fold; But one was out on the hills away, Far off from the gates of gold. Away on the mountains wild and bare; Away from the tender Shepherd’s care.

“Lord, Thou hast here Thy ninety and nine; Are they not enough for Thee?” But the Shepherd made answer: “This of Mine Has wandered [far, far] away from Me. And although the road be rough and steep, I go to the desert to find My sheep.

”But none of the ransomed ever knew How deep were the waters crossed; Nor how dark was the night the Lord passed through Ere He found His sheep that was lost. Out in the desert He heard its cry; ’Twas sick and helpless and ready to die.

And all through the mountains, thundering, And up from the rocky steep, There arose a glad cry to the gate of heaven, “Rejoice! I have found My sheep!” And the angels echoed around the throne, “Rejoice, for the Lord brings back His own!” Because Gods reach has no limits.

Every excuse we may give as the reason we cannot serve Christ, was challenged and answered at Calvary.
