Christ is More than a Servant of God

 “And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.”

‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭33‬:‭1‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Moses, man of God, blessed the people of Israel with this blessing before his death.  Moses was very humble, more than any man in the face of the earth.  So the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend.  Indeed, Moses served God faithfully in all He gave him to do. His work prophetically illustrates things that would later be spoken and fulfilled.  Moses gave the law from God which is the righteousness of the law and the person who does those things shall live by the law.  But Christ is more than a Servant, He was faithful as the Son in charge of God’s house. He gave us the righteousness by faith in the finished work of the Cross.  And now we are part of His house if we continue courageously to hold firmly to our bold confidence and our victorious hope. Jesus is worthy to receive a much greater glory than Moses, for the one who builds a house deserves to be honored more than the house he builds.  God took Moses’s service in the old covenant but in the new covenant, in Christ, we are part of a much greater glory as sons of glory, and we are here to bless others. Amen!
