Thoughts on This Verse...
Jesus. Yeshua. Joshua of the spiritual world.
Mary's boy, God's Son, comes to help us tear down the strongholds Satan has built in our lives.
He comes to bring peace to our troubled spirits and joy to our nights of despair.
He comes to not only minister to us and bless us; he comes to do what no one else could do: he comes to deliver us from our sins, those spiritual blemishes, rebellions, mistakes, and transgressions.
Praise God!
A deliverer who actually conquered what we could not to make us what we could not otherwise be -- pure, perfect, and holy children of God, like him
(cf. Col. 1:21-23).
