MY DAY IN COURT

>
> After living a "decent" life my time on earth came to an end.
> The first thing I remember is sitting on a bench in the waiting room of
> what I thought to be a court house.
> The doors opened and I was instructed to come in and have a seat by the
> defense table.
> As I looked around I saw the "prosecutor," he was a villainous looking gent
> who snarled as he stared at me, he definitely was the most evil person I have
> ever seen.
> I sat down and looked to my left and there sat my lawyer, a kind and gentle
> looking man whose appearance seemed very familiar to me.
>
> The corner door flew open and there appeared the judge in full flowing robes.
> He commanded an awesome presence as he moved across the room and I couldn't
> take my eyes off of him.
> As he took his seat behind the bench he said, "Let us begin."
>
> The prosecutor rose and said, "My name is Satan and I am here to show you why
> this man belongs in hell."
> He proceeded to tell of lies that I told, things that I stole and in the past
> when I heated others.
> Satan told of other horrible perversions that were once in my life and the
> more he spoke the further down in my seat I sank.
> I was so embarrassed that I couldn't look at anyone, even my own lawyer, as
> the evil told of sins that even I had completely forgotten about.
>
> As upset as I was at Satan for telling all these things about me, I was
> equally upset at my representative who sat there silently not offering any
> form of defense at all. I know I had been guilty of those things, but I had
> done some good in my life-couldn't that at least equal out part of the harm
> I've done.
>
> Satan finished with a fury and said, "This man belongs in hell, he is guilty
> of all that I have charged and there is not a person who can prove
> otherwise."
> Justice will finally be served this day."
>
> When it was his turn, my lawyer first asked if he might approach the bench.
> The judge allowed this over the strong objection of Satan, and beckoned him
> to come forward.
> As he got up and started walking I was able to see him now in his full
> splendor and majesty.
> Now I realized why he seemed so familiar, this was Jesus representing me - my
> Lord and my Saviour.
> He stopped at the bench and softly said to the judge, "Hi Dad" and then he
> turned to address the court.
> "Satan was correct in saying that this man had sinned, I won't deny any of
> these allegations.
> And yes, the wages of sins is death and this man deserves to be punished."
> Jesus took a deep breath and turned to his Father with outstretched arms and
> proclaimed, "However, I died on the cross so that this person might have
> eternal life
> and he has accepted me as his Saviour, so he is mine." My Lord continued
> with, "His name is written in the book of life and no one can snatch him from
> me.
> Satan still does not understand yet, this man is not to be given justice but
> rather mercy."
>
> As Jesus sat down, He quietly paused, looked at his Father and replied,
> "There is nothing else that needs to be done, I've done it all".
>
> The Judge lifted his mighty hand and slammed the gavel down and the following
> words bellowed from his lips, "This man is free-the penalty for him has
> already been paid in full, case dismissed."
>
> As my Lord led me away I could hear Satan ranting and raving, "I won't give
> up, I'll win the next one."
>
> I asked Jesus as he gave me my instructions where to go next, "Have you ever
> lost a case."
>
> Christ lovingly smiled and said, "Everyone that has come to me and asked me
> to represent them has received the same verdict as you, "Paid in Full."
>
> Oh what a blessing! There is no greater commandment than to love your
> neighbour as yourself!
>
> PRAYER
> Father, I ask you to bless my friends reading this right now!
> Lord, show them a new revelation of Your love and power. Holy Spirit, I
> ask You to minister to their spirit at this very moment. Where there is
> pain, give them Your peace & mercy. Where there is self-doubting,
> release a renewed confidence in Your ability to work through them. Where
> there is tiredness, or exhaustion, I ask You to give them understanding,
> patience, & strength as they learn submission to Your leading. Where there is
> spiritual stagnation, I ask You to renew them by revealing Your nearness, and
> by drawing them into greater intimacy with You. Where there is fear, reveal
> Your love, and release to them Your courage. Where there is a sin blocking
> them, reveal it, and break its hold over my friend's life. Bless their
> finances, give them greater vision, and raise up leaders, and friends to
> support, and encourage them. Give each of them discernment to recognize the
> demonic forces around them, and reveal to them the power they have in You to
> defeat it, I ask You to do these things in Jesus' name!
> AMEN
>
> Passing this on to anyone you consider a friend, as I have done here, will
> bless you both. Passing this on to one not considered a friend is something I
> know Christ would do.
