“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” (Hebrews 12:2, NIV)
The God-adventure is a sweeping dance of redemption as he moves through history coordinating circumstances and events in order to bring as many people as possible home to heaven.
Oswald Chambers calls God “The Great Engineer,” the one who keeps all things moving toward a purpose, a climax in history (which is his story). God’s tale is a tear-filled romance where he chases after those he loves, regardless of whether they love him back. It’s a nail-biting drama where he launches a rescue mission for his children who are held in captivity, and he arrives in the perfectly planned nick of time.
In God’s story, his children follow him in faith, yet even the most faithful stumble and fail. But the story doesn’t end there! God redeems even the worst mistakes, making all things work together for the good of those he calls his own.
God’s is a story of majesty, power, and infinite grace. It’s about a God who speaks the world into existence and sets the moon and the stars in place, yet he also cares for every detail of your life. God rescued you from captivity, and now he wants you to join him in further rescue missions, bringing more of his children – your brothers and sisters – home to the Father’s house.
Even now, you are part of God’s story. He’s calling you today to see and understand and live according to the scope and magnitude of his grand adventure.
