ACCESS TO YOUR ACCOUNT
 
 
(John 10:9) "I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture".
(Romans 5:2) "By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God".
(Eph. 2:18) "For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father".
(Heb. 4:16) "Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need".
Access - right to enter, use, permission or ability to enter to use
          Most of us have some type of credit, debit or bank ATM cards in our possession. It gives us access to our funds to make purchases or pay bills instead of using cash. For security purposes, the cardholder has to create a pin or "access" code to make any transaction. Without using the pin, the transaction is invalid or non-accessible. If you enter the wrong access code, you wont be permitted any transaction as well. Access codes/pins are also needed in entering your computer, internet social networks, automobiles, cellphones, ipads, entry into some offices or places of employment, etc. The bottom line is: Without your code, pin or password, you won't be granted permission (access) to enter.
           Before Jesus came on this earth to sacrifice his life for us on the cross, we had no access to the Father. The blood of animals and constant sacrifices of them were made for our sins. All of this was done away with after Jesus died, rose again and ascended unto God. Now we have access to the Father through his blood. We can enter into His presence because of the blood. It's a bad feeling when you get to the cashier and swipe your card and told that you have insufficient funds or the transaction didn't go through. This can only happen if one failed to deposit funds into their account to cover any future transactions or purchases or there is a malfunction in the entry process. In addition to this, you can check your account and see if the transaction cleared or was pending.
           Aren't you glad that we can come boldly to the throne of grace and know that our request (transaction) will not be denied? Our debt was cancelled and we were given full access on the account of Jesus! Hallelujah! The scripture tells us that His grace is sufficient for thee (II Cor. 12:9a) and His mercies are new every morning. Let us not allow the enemy to hack or steal our access code for any reason. Don't allow him to use strategies to make us think our "card" is invalid or not usable anymore. Jesus paid the supreme sacrifice making our heavenly account well-supplied so we may have access to God and the things He has for those who love and serve Him.
Remember your code JOHN 3:16 - MATT. 18:18, safeguard it and Use It as need! No Expiration Date!
