Loved.Yes, I feel loved with the highest level of love - the love of God! I'm yet to see anyone that could demonstrate this greatest love of all - not as a daughter to my parents, wife to my lovely husband of over 20 years nor as a mother can I say I have experienced from a fellow human the love that God has for me. Assuredly, His love is not for certain group of people, it's for the whole world. This love is so deep, high and wide beyond human comprehension.
In this season of Easter, the festival of love - I want to remind you of a few things.
Jesus came to die for the white, the black, the brown (all race), the rich, the poor, the married, the single, the divorced, the abused, the abuser, the sick, the healthy, the hurt, the broken, the drug dealer, the scammer, the prostitute, the addict, the free, the prisoner, .... and whosoever.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
John 3:16-17 NKJV
He bridged the gap that sin created between God and man by sending Jesus Christ to die for our sins.
Christ suffered for our sins once for all time. He never sinned, but he died for sinners to bring you safely home to God. He suffered physical death, but he was raised to life in the Spirit.1 Peter 3:18 NLT
I don't know what the devil has been telling you but this I know - you're not condemned. It's not too late for you! You can answer your Creator today by asking Jesus to come into your life.
Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. You are My friends if you do whatever I command you. John 15:13-14 NKJV
Jesus died for your sins! Yes, you the reader of this blog. Come to Him in repentance today and your life will not remain the same.
Easter is the greatest victory that has ever happened in human history.
Happy Easter!
How can I have a relationship with God?
1.Confess your sins to God. Romans 3:10, 23; 5:12
2.Ask that the blood of Jesus cleanse you from all your sins. Hebrew 9:22, 1John 1:7-9.
3.Ask Jesus to come and reign in your life.
4.Forgive yourself and move on.
"Therefore if anyone is in Christ [that is, grafted in, joined to Him by faith in Him as Savior], he is a new creature [reborn and renewed by the Holy Spirit]; the old things [the previous moral and spiritual condition] have passed away. Behold, new things have come [because spiritual awakening brings a new life]." 2 Corinthians 5:17 AMP
5.Read your Bible and pray everyday.
6.Pray that God will lead you to a Bible believing church and fellowship with them.
Prayer
Lord Jesus, I come to you today; save me and I shall be saved. Heal me and I shall be healed. Forgive me of all my sins (confess them). Have mercy on me. Come and be the Lord over my spirit, soul, and body. Help me not to go back to my old way of life - give me a new beginning. I am yours Lord! In Jesus name I pray. Amen
Important Information
Giving your life to Jesus does not mean you will not experience challenges in life. Infact, you may be persecuted because of your faith in Jesus. You may experience pain, temptations, trials, disasters, loss and so on. In the event that any of these things happen to you, know assuredly that He is with you. The difference between you and an unbeliever is God's promises - His presence and the ultimate reward which is eternity with Him in heaven.
"When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through fire, you will not be scorched, Nor will the flame burn you."
Isaiah 43:2 AMP
"Blessed [gratefully praised and adored] be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts and encourages us in every trouble so that we will be able to comfort and encourage those who are in any kind of trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God."
2 Corinthians 1:3-4 AMP
If you continue to be in good standing with God; when you die, you will go to heaven.
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven."
Matthew 7:21 AMP
