GOD'S PLANS FOR YOUR REDEMPTION 5-7-23 VIDEO ATHEIST SAVED 2
God certainly had a plan to redeem the whole world. He most definitely planned to redeem us in spite of our circumstances. He is turning our obstacles into opportunities. Redemption is personal. God has us in His heart. He knew we were enslaved by our sins so He made a way for us to be set free. Redemption from the curse put on mankind. We are Christ descendents you see we must take our redemption personally in Christ. If you have been the only one, Christ wouldve died for you.
ISA 51:1 Listen to me, you who chase after righteousness," you who passionately pursue the Lord. Look back to Abraham, the rock from which you were cut,
to Sarah, the quarry from which you were dug, and remember what I did for them.
Yes, look to Abraham your father and to Sarah, who bore you. For when I called Abraham, he was but one person, but I blessed him greatly so that one became many." TPT
Gal 3:13 Christ redeemed us from that self-defeating, cursed life by absorbing it completely into himself. Do you remember the Scripture that says, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree"? That is what happened when Jesus was nailed to the Cross: He became a curse, and at the same time dissolved the curse.
14 And now, because of that, the air is cleared and we can see that Abraham's blessing is present and available for non-Jews, too. We are all able to receive God's life, his Spirit, in and with us by believing just the way Abraham received it. MSG
Gal 3:16 Now, the promises were made to Abraham and to his descendant. You will observe that Scripture, in the careful language of a legal document, does not say "to descendants," referring to everybody in general, but "to your descendant" (the noun, note, is singular), referring to Christ. MSG
Ps 139:13 Oh yes, you shaped me first inside, then out; you formed me in my mother's womb.
14 I thank you, High God you're breathtaking! Body and soul, I am marvelously made! I worship in adoration what a creation!
15 You know me inside and out, you know every bone in my body; You know exactly how I was made, bit by bit, how I was sculpted from nothing into something.
16 Like an open book, you watched me grow from conception to birth; all the stages of my life were spread out before you, The days of my life all prepared before I'd even lived one day. MSG

Psalms 139:13 You formed my innermost being, shaping my delicate inside
and my intricate outside, and wove them all together in my mother's womb.
14I thank you, God, for making me so mysteriously complex! Everything you do is marvelously breathtaking. It simply amazes me to think about it! How thoroughly you know me, Lord!
15You even formed every bone in my body when you created me in the secret place;
carefully, skillfully you shaped me from nothing to something.
16You saw who you created me to be before I became me! Before I'd ever seen the light of day, the number of days you planned for me were already recorded in your book. TPT
Jer 29:11 I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for.
12 "When you call on me, when you come and pray to me, I'll listen.
13 "When you come looking for me, you'll find me. "Yes, when you get serious about finding me and want it more than anything else,
14 I'll make sure you won't be disappointed." God's Decree. "I'll turn things around for you. I'll bring you back from all the countries into which I drove you" God's Decree "bring you home to the place from which I sent you off into exile. You can count on it. MSG
Rom 3:23 Since we've compiled this long and sorry record as sinners (both us and them) and proved that we are utterly incapable of living the glorious lives God wills for us,
24 God did it for us. Out of sheer generosity he put us in right standing with himself. A pure gift. He got us out of the mess we're in and restored us to where he always wanted us to be. And he did it by means of Jesus Christ. MSG
Rom 5:8 But God put his love on the line for us by offering his Son in sacrificial death while we were of no use whatever to him.
9 Now that we are set right with God by means of this sacrificial death, the consummate blood sacrifice, there is no longer a question of being at odds with God in any way.
10 If, when we were at our worst, we were put on friendly terms with God by the sacrificial death of his Son, now that we're at our best, just think of how our lives will expand and deepen by means of his resurrection life! MSG

1 PET 2:24 In his person he bore our sins in his own body upon the tree and thus brought closure to every distorted pattern of sins influence upon us; we were made alive unto righteousness; we were healed by the blows he took in his body!

1 Peter 1:18 It cost God plenty to get you out of that dead-end, empty-headed life you grew up in.
19 He paid with Christ's sacred blood, you know. He died like an unblemished, sacrificial lamb.
