THE GIFT
GOOD NEWS! God is not mad at you, He's madly in love with you and longs to be involved with every detail of your life! He loves you so much that he made a way for you to be in right standing with Him right here, right now in this life and experience His great Love for YOU now and throughout all eternity! But, the only way we can enter into this relationship with Him is through the precious gift of His Son, Jesus. You see, the Bible tells us that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:10). ALL MEANS ALL! That means you, me and everyone - no one is exempt! When sin entered the earth, mankind was separated from this Love relationship with Him - so He made a Way - the only way ~ Jesus! Mankind, through efforts of good works and complicated religious "do's and don't's" has fallen short of the mark to reach the heart of God. But He made it simple and uncomplicated ...."If you declare with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord", and if you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved. We believe with our hearts, and so we are made right with God and we declare with our mouths that we believe, so we are saved".Romans 10:9-10
If we believe, receive and declare that Jesus, the Son of God took upon Himself the penalty for our sin, was crucified, died and arose from the grave we shall be saved - justified before God - "made right" with God!
Today is your day, this is your moment....Don't run from God, run to Him! All God asks is that you come to Him with a sincere heart and accept His plan of salvation. He loves YOU and is offering YOU His Greatest Gift ~ Jesus!
Please pray this prayer today...
Lord Jesus, I call upon You now and believe You died for my sins. Right now I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and life to You and confess You as my Lord and Savior. I believe that You died on the cross and rose from the dead to make a way for me. Thank You for loving me enough to die for me - for thinking I was worth it! Today, I accept You into my heart and give myself totally to You. Please fill me with your Holy Spirit. You are now Lord of my life!
If you just prayed that prayer and meant it, Jesus has now taken residence in your heart! (Revelation 3:20). Your decision to receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior means God has forgiven you and you will spend eternity with Him!
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just
to forgive us our sins and cleanse us
from all unrighteousness"
I John 1:9
Now what, you ask? I encourage you to do the following and grow and deepen your relationship with Him. Remember, He is not some foreign, vague deity who doesn't care about you. In Jesus, you've now discovered the most important truth of the universe - Our God is a father. He loves you so much that He did something we would never think of doing - He gave his own Son to die for you! He loves you inconceivably and He did the inconceivable proving that He is a Father who truly loves YOU ....
