| To Come To Jesus To come to Jesus is to come to the end of yourself and say, "I don't like the sin in my life." Don't run away from God when there's sin in your life... Run To Him! There are three people sitting in the chair where you are right now: (1) The person you are. (2) The person you could be for God. (3) And a person of evil if you take your eyes off God. God's Holy Word tells us we are all evil by nature without Him. We should pray every day for God's protection. We must strive to have a personal relationship with Jesus every day... day by day, until He comes to take us home. When we make Jesus the Lord of our Life, He becomes the Saviour of our life, the Master of our life, the Ruler of our life, the Controller of our life, and the Decision Maker of our life. When we get saved, we are saying, "I voluntarily give up my life and give myself to You, Lord. Here I am, Lord, Use Me!" When we get saved, it means that we are walking with Him, we are doing His Will and we are following His Word. We are holding fast to His Teachings and our conduct lets people know that we are His. To be in discipleship with Jesus means we are able to imitate Christ in our lives, and we are to open our mouths and tell others that Jesus loves them. When we become Christians, the Bible says that we will have enemies. Jesus had enemies and the very people who listened to His teachings and followed him around, hung Him on a cross to die. The bible says that when we become Christians, we will become enemies even to some members of our own household who are not saved. As Christians, we feel it when we sin. Our conscious, heart and mind will not let us rest until we make it right with God. David in the Bible went a whole year without repenting to God and getting it right. And in that year, he was wearied, wrought, worried, wounded, wasted and weakened. This is called the sin of stubbornness. We serve a God who gives life to the dead. He gives life to us when we bring Him our dead circumstances. We need to live under the anointing every day. What does that mean? The anointing is not an emotion. Yes, we do feel it. But we feel it because the anointing is the "Presence of God." To anoint means to rub... it is that special touch for a special passing. The Presence of God... we need it for everything we do! So, don't live in the flesh. Get ready and then Stay Ready! Put on the helmet of Salvation. Put the Sword of the Spirit in your hand. Gird your loins with the Righteousness of Truth. Put on the Shield of Faith. Shod your feet with the Spirit of Peace. Come to Jesus! AND PUT ON THE WHOLE ARMOUR OF GOD! |
