You
have come across my path and wandered into my nest. I know
you have need of eternal
rest
and of answers that only Jesus can give.
Jesus Christ was my answer when "I" thought I had all the answers.
Our time will soon to be over.
Every
human being has a set number of days on this earth.
Think
about your eternal soul....
You
WILL end up on one side of eternity or the other.
Neither
death or life can separate the true believer from Christ.
It
is the true lover of God, those who love the Lord from their hearts and
actions.
These
prove their devotion by how they act, or by their actions or by combining
evidence
with their faith. Faith works by Love, and it is through Christ's
loving
kindness that leads us to repentance. Christ woos us and wins us
over
by
love, and faith begins to work when we understand we are loved by our
Savior
Jesus Christ. Once we understand that He loves us, it is easy to
walk with Him.
Then
we ask Him to help us over come sin on a daily basis and turn away from
it.
For
without Him we can do nothing. For it is by Grace or unmerited
favor that
you
are saved, not of your own power, lest you boast of your own merit.
It
is the most precious gift we can receive from God, yet the most misunderstood.
Why
you wonder?
When
we receive gifts from friends or family, we often feel so humbled and loved
and
we want to give in return. Just think how God gave His ultimate gift,
His
Son to provide eternal life to lost humanity. Humanity had no chance
of
ever being able to pay for the sin and the secret faults that was ingrained
into
each
one of us from conception. Once we understand that the law, or the
old
Testament
was written to show us what sin is, then we can properly understand
what
Christ has done for us, because He finished what we could never do.
He
lived a perfect life, revealed the nature of the Father, because He came
to seek and
save
that which was lost. Jesus taught us how to live and do as He did,
He taught
us
to pray, then He taught us how to die to self, and pick up our cross, or
our
requirement
from God and follow Him. To loose our earthly life, or our
self will,
like
Jesus did, is to say to Him........"not my will, but yours be done."
That
is picking up your cross and following Him. Each person must seek
the
Lord
for themselves and obey His commands, for to live is Christ and to die
is gain.
Christ
Jesus paid the ultimate price for our lives, He gave up His will,
He
gave up His perfect body and life, to be our perfect unblemished sacrifice,
or
lamb before God. Jesus said to God, These are mine, those who
trust
in My sacrifice/atonement, for at one moment Christ did it all so He
would
forever settle the issue of mans separation from God. He hung on
that
cross with you in mind. You were always on His mind. It is
no coinsedence
that
you are reading these words. Of Christ it is written, "The Word became
flesh
and
dwelt among us." Speaking of Christ, He became sin who knew no sin
that He would be
the
firstborn of many brethren. The first Adam brought sin into the world,
the
last Adam became a quicking Spirit. Jesus was a type of Adam,
yet
without sin. Sin came in with Adam but through Jesus, (the last Adam),
He gave
His
perfect life on the cross so He would be able to quicken our mortal bodies,
and
restore the breach or separation we have with God. What shall we
say then?
Shall
we continue in the same manner of living and reject His sacrifice?
Shall
we continue willful sinning and frustrate the Grace of God, God forbid!!!
Whatever
you are a slave or servant to, that you will obey, weather it is sin
that
leads to death or our obedience that leads to life, and that more abundantly.
Once I was lost, and once I died, but I revived and He chose to let me
live again. Many
never
have a second chance. But that experience branded me as His,
because
of the glimpse of eternity when I stepped over. That experience
forever
changed my direction. I knew I had to tell my story, to witness or
testify,
what
was real, what was truth, what was of eternal value. Jesus Loves
us, but He
only
wants those who want Him. Think of it......The creator of the entire
universe
wants
to fellowship with me! And you!! God wants to walk with you
and Love you.
How
can I not speak and write of His Grace for me, and those who want Him and
love Him.
How
can we waste and spend our lives without Christ? God
has given us so much!
What
do we waste you may say? For what can a man or a woman profit, if
he
or she loses their own souls? How we live in the time frame
allotted to us,
determines
our nakedness or transparency before God. Naked we came
into
this
world, and naked shall we shall return. Our transparency or nakedness
is
plain before the Lords eyes.
We
shall take with us only what we have invested into His kingdom. Our
time,
our resources, our talents, have been given to us so we learn to be stewards
over
them. The Lord will ask one day, "What have you done with the
talent and resources
I
have given you?" We are held accountable for the investments
the Lord puts into our
lives.
The Lord expects a large return or growth from the years allotted to us.
For
to live, is Christ. For it is not I who lives, but Christ who lives
in me.
The
life we now live as Christians, is to please the one who sent us.
Christ
in us the hope of Glory! And to die, knowing we were good stewards
in
our
lives, is a great gain. For in Him we live and move and have our
being!
What
are we doing with our talents, time and resources?
What
He has given us, will be plainly seen in eternity. Why? Because
we all will
stand
before the judgment seat of Christ, or for the unbeliever, the
white
throne judgment. I promise you, when you die, you will spend
eternity
in
one of two places. Forever with the Lord or separated from the Lord
in
the
lake of fire. I would be disobedient not to warn you of the truth.
If you know the
truth,
the truth will make you free.
Eternity
is forever with no rain checks. You either repent and believe
to
receive Christ Jesus, or you will enter eternal judgment with all
unbelievers
and haters of God. Those unbelievers of the truth, (The Word of God
or
another words, the Bible), wasted their talents, years, and resources.
Hell
is real, and heaven is real, and you are real, and made for Gods plan!
It is
your
choice, God will not force you to love Him. Do these
words touch your
heart
and make you feel that void in your inner most being? That
void you feel is meant
for
something, or "someone" to fill it. Walk as children of the
light, not as children
of
the darkness. Light brings truth to the matter, just as the sun brings
light
to show the day.
You have two choices; Why? Because every knee shall bow,
and every tongue
shall
confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Even satan and all of his followers
shall be made to bow
before
the Lord our maker. Satan's mission is to take as many people with
him as possible.
He
hates God and all those who serve God.
OK;
What will it be.......with Jesus in eternity, or the god of this world,
our enemy satan.
Satan
and those who work for him, have got your number and page. They
know
all about you, and contracts you have made with satan, through willful
rebellion
or other presumptuous sin, none can be broken. But there is
good
news!!! Because Jesus came to earth and allowed Himself to take your
sin,
and stand guilty in your place before God. Therefore, the first Adam
sinned,
and
that sin multiplied into all mankind. It took a second Adam
to come and start
a
new beginning for sinful mankind. Therefore, the second Adam became
a
quickening
Spirit. For those who repent and turn from their sin, Christ takes
your
place and God sees you through the atoning sacrifice of the Son of Man,
Contracts
with Satan can only be broken through repentance and receiving
Jesus
Christ as your personal savior. His testament or will, is
exercised
through your trust and belief in the price He paid for you.
You
were purchased with a great price. Christ Jesus sealed
a
new
contract with His own blood, for you. Has anyone ever
loved
you so much they would die for you? His blood stopped and broke
Satan's
grip
over peoples lives, for those who receive Him as Lord. If it's sealed
in
His blood, It's irrevocable, finished, complete. Satan has
been
defeated
through Christ finished work; now it is your turn.........
Do
you want to know and love your creator? He desires
you
to come to Him.
Allow
the contracts you have made with this world, to be broken
at
this time. Ask the Lord to forgive you and ask Him to cleanse
you
by His blood sacrifice, and ask Him to come and live in your heart.
Give
yourself to Jesus and ask him to forgive you. I beg you, I plead
with you! Why
would I beg you? Because I have personally witnessed His power and
reality in my life. I
sought
the Lord with my whole heart and He answered. I tried every worldly
pleasure, alcohol,
drugs,
sex, you name it, but nothing has ever compared to My Jesus. He has
filled that
void, with acceptance and unconditional love. He is truly my best
friend that sticks with
me
better than any brother or sister, and if you really mean it, He
will knock on your
hearts door, and ask you if He can come in. Ask my permission
to come in?!!! Yes, you!
Because He doesn't want a puppet on some strings pretending to love Him,
He wants
you to love Him and fellowship with Him and be His friend!
So,
all you have to do with a sincere heart is to turn away from your way,
so His way will
be
the light of your new day. Acknowledge to Him that your tired of
living this worlds
system, and how it has wreaked your relationships and your very life.
Repent means to
turn away from your sin and the very things that keep you from pleasing
God. Repent
therefore!
That the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord!
My prayer for you
Lord Jesus, I pray for all of those who read this exhortation, that you
may have mercy
and
help them to come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. And also that
they may
receive the fullness of the Spirit and be witnesses of all they have seen
and heard.
Provide
them with like minded Christians to befriend them and disciple them and
provide a Bible so they may read your word. Most of all, provide
your presence in
the
midst of trouble, so that you shall revive them and make them vessels of
honor fit
for
your use. Let your Love be a tangible presence in their circumstances
and let them
know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you love them and you are Lord over
all!
To
God be the Glory, and angels sing praises to the rock of all ages!!!!!
Amen and Amen!!!
NOW WHAT?
Jesus on the mainline tell him what you want
Prayer, fasting, dwelling in His presence is joy unspeakable and full of
glory.
He is my first
husband and lover and friend. No one does me like Jesus can.
Those that
have been forgive of much, love much. How do I know?
His Spirit
in me testifies to me that I am a child of God.
You shall
know the truth and He will make you free.
Ask God to
open your eyes to the Bible and begin
to read it everyday, and watch with a faith filled heart
how he will
teach you all things. Above all
things, learn
to love Him, as He loves you.
Love ya's
