Jubilee (4th Day 50)

Count off seven sabbaths of years—seven times seven years—so that the seven sabbaths of years amount to a period of forty-nine years...Consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants...It shall be a jubilee for you; each one of you is to return to his family property and each to his own clan. (Leviticus 25:8,10)

Dear brothers and sisters,

The Jubilee was a special year in which debt was forgiven and one returned home. The slate was wiped clean. Through Jesus, our debts are forgiven and our return home is like that of the prodigal son. When the prodigal son returned home, his sins were forgiven and his father rejoiced at his homecoming.

This is the 50th 4th Day of WV88. This is our Jubilee. Let us remember that our sins are forgiven and that we have come home to Christ. He welcomes and embraces us and we are restored afresh each and every time we enter into communion with Him. In Christ we find the renewal of our strength, so we do not faint. ...He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit. (Titus 3:5)

This is our Jubilee day. So remember especially today what God has done for us. Give Him thanks for being our God.

De Colores,
Bill
