True Satisfaction In Christ
Can God be Satisfied?
Are you familiar with the Rolling Stones’ 1965 song “[I Can’t Get No] Satisfaction”?
Keith Richards and Mick Jagger’s lyrics, “can’t get no satisfaction” resonated with people in the 1960s and also today. But do you know who has found satisfaction? God.
First John 2:2 says, “He [Jesus] Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world.”
The word propitiation means satisfaction. This verse tells us that Jesus satisfied God’s righteous requirement that sin be dealt with rather than ignored.
How did Jesus do that ? He substituted His life for ours. How incredible!
If its been a while since we thanked Jesus for satisfying God’s righteous requirements of the law on our behalf, now would be a good time to do that.
Jesus, PROPITIATION FOR OUR SINS, thank You for sacrificing Your life for my sins. I love You!
