DIVINE PERFECTION!... PART 5 - CONCLUSION
July is of course the seventh month and beginning of the second half of the year. In such games as football, the second half presents an opportunity to strive for excellence, correct the mistakes of the first half, and ultimately try to win the game.
The number seven is very significant and is spiritually regarded as the number of perfection. As the Nelson’s Bible Dictionary defines it, perfection refers to the quality of flawlessness or without error, a state of completion or fulfilment. God’s perfection means that He is complete in Himself. He lacks nothing; He has no flaws. He is perfect in all characteristics of His nature. He is the basis for and standard by which all other perfection is to be measured (Ps 18:30, Matt 5:48). In contrast, man’s perfection is relative and dependent on God for its existence. The good news is that as the coach of a football team wants the best for his team, God is desirous to make perfect all that concerns us. (Ps 138:8 The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands. KJV)
The key to attaining this perfection is primarily to leverage on faith in God and a relationship with Jesus Christ. Indeed, Christ came that we may have life and have it more abundantly – the perfect life, the flawless life, the victorious life. His sacrificial death on the cross of Calvary and resurrection reconciled us to God and brought back the fellowship that man lost when Adam sinned. We can now access the promises of God to man – victory, perfection, salvation, deliverance, health, wealth etc.
Our five-part series for the month of July, “Divine Perfection” looks at the scriptural promises and conditions for accessing this perfection through God. Join us this Sunday as we explore the theme and conclude the series.
God bless you.
