REDEMPTION



Therefore prophesy and say to them, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will open your graves and cause you to come up out of your graves, O My people; and I will bring you [back home] to the land of Israel. Ezek 37: 12 AMP
At creation, God’s original intent for man was to be his representative here on earth and to worship him continually. But this plan was truncated when man fell in the Garden of Eden and it had to take a priceless blood sacrifice to redeem man from the power and clutches of sin. God according to Genesis 1:26 created man in his own image and likeness to be in control of everything on earth. Hear this according to God’s original intention it is an aberration to be controlled by what you should be controlling here on earth. Man was in the perfect will of God until the forbidden fruit was eaten and man lost it all.
God in his wisdom designed a temporary way out for man’s redemption from the law of sin and death through sacrifice and priests but God’s last card was the priceless blood of his only son that is potent, effective, and efficient enough to pay the ransom for the remission of man’s sins and to restore him back to his original state. The ransom plan includes a) TO OPEN MAN’S GRAVES by granting free access and passage out of satanic and demonic prison and slavery, it also connotes liberation or freedom from the clutch of satanic agents and his cohorts.  Psalm 107: 16 For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder. b) TO COME UP OUT: This is triumphant exit from satanic and demonic slavery or prison. This can be termed as spiritual freedom of movement, where there are no constrictions to where you can or cannot go. c) TO BRING MAN BACK HOME: This is restoring man back to his original domain. Bishop Oyedepo got his mandate after he had an 18 hour vision of beaten, battered, and buffeted people wailing and crying for help, he asked God "But why Lord" God responded and said "but in the beginning it was not so. And now the hour has come to liberate man from all oppressions of the devil through the preaching the word of faith and I am sending to undertake this task”. Matthew 15:13 But he answered and said, every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.  Matthew 3:12 whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
God is still in the business of redeeming men and women who calls on him to be saved from the path of death and destruction. Call his toll free line to date for your salvation and he will surely save you.  

Prayer: Thank you dear blessed father for your redemptive plan for me.  (AMEN).
