Wednesday, July 25th – Bible Study and Prayer Time – 6:30 pm – “Prayer is essentially the expression of our heart longing for love. It is not so much the listing of our requests but the breathing of our own deepest request, to be united with God as fully as possible.” ---- Jeffrey D. Imbach (Recovery of Love)

Is it not evident that, despite the Resurrection, if there had been no Ascension we would be lost? If the Father had not been fully satisfied with all His Son did for us wouldn’t it all be rendered null and void? Would we not be forever undone, without help and without hope, if Jesus had not entered heaven on our behalf, celebrated with hymns of victory? If Christ has not ascended for us, where else could we go to find the Father’s welcoming arms? There would be no high priest to represent us and intercede for us at the throne. We would be stripped of free, clean access into God’s presence. There would be no one preparing a home for our eternal dwelling. Our lives, as well as the whole universe, would be without a mediator to symphonize all things with the will of God. Pentecost would have been permanently postponed, and so believers would remain forever devoid of the Spirit’s indwelling power. The promises meant to be Jesus’ inheritance, to be shared with all who belong to Him, would be locked up and shelved. Above all, Jesus’ very best gift, His saving efforts for us, would be struck in the past, as it were – where He was last seen, visiting with disciples after exiting the tomb, but left at the fringes of history. --- David Bryant
