"By the riches of your Mercy
You give us eternity
You've raised me from the dead, God
Filled me with your spirit
Because your great Love
You seated us in heaven
We're back to when we started
Back into your garden"
Lyrics of Everything's Alright
Even before Eve was willfully deceived and Adam was disobedient, the Father had an answer. Redemption and Restoration. It's His heart for us all.
In the garden spiritual death came because of sin. Yet the Father's grace was evident. Gen. 3:24, "So He drove the man out; and at the east of the garden of Eden He stationed the cherubim and the flaming sword which turned every direction to guard the way to the tree of life."
One might think this was severe, but this was God's grace. He protected Adam and Eve from living forever in a fallen state. His plan would be to one day remove shame and condemnation through Jesus, "Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us-for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree"-" Gal. 3:13
"Everything is all right
There's no need to worry
For the Lord is right by my side"
Listen and be blessed!
