God knew you before you were born…

I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: Marvellous are thy works; And that my soul knoweth right well. My substance was not hid from thee, When I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; And in thy book all my members were written, Which in continuance were fashioned, When as yet there was none of them. How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! How great is the sum of them! Psalm 139:14‭-‬17 KJV https://bible.com/bible/1/psa.139.14-17.KJV

God picked your parents and the place where you would be born and the place where you would live. Why would He do that? Because He knew that you would have an impact on those who live near you. Because you would be His one day and your witness would be needed in the area where you live. Why does God do this? Because He is in control and He determines the fate of mankind for His purposes and His glory. He raised up the Pharaoh that Moses would ask to let Israel go, He raised up Nebuchadnezzar to punish Israel because of their disobedience.

Since God uses the rulers and Presidents of the world to perform His will around the world, He can determine your path and your work in this world for Him. God can use you to perform His will when you don’t accept Jesus as your Savior. All of life and everything in creation is ordained by God to work the way He has determined for it to do…including everything that we do. The time of the church and the Gentiles is coming to an end soon, make sure that your belief is anchored in Jesus Christ, the Savior.

He knows those who trust in Him

The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him. Nahum 1:7 KJV https://bible.com/bible/1/nam.1.7.KJV

People seem to want to know and be known by God but they’re afraid of being rejected by their peers if they became a Christian. It’s sad that people seem to value the opinions of others more than they fear the result of rejecting Jesus Christ as their Savior. The opinion of people only lasts for this life, but rejecting Jesus has eternal consequences.

Our lives are just a puff of smoke compared to eternity, even if you live to be one hundred years old. The result of your rejecting Jesus Christ as your Savior is the same as turning your back on God’s grace and the result is not good for your eternity. Hell has always been described as a lake of fire, and it will be, but it will also be a place where there’s no water, not will there be any presence of God there. No comfort, no friends, only darkness and pain for an eternity.

Make sure of your salvation before the day is through because no one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow. He is coming soon, so don’t miss that trumpet call.

The whole world will know…

For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. Habakkuk 2:14 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/hab.2.14/388

God loves us

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/jhn.3.16/10786

He will teach you!

I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye. Psalm 32:8 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/psa.32.8/17238

Be kind…

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. Ephesians 4:32 NIV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/eph.4.32/274

This is a message that all of us should take into our lives each day. Many times we are hurt by what someone says or by something that they do and sometimes this happens more often than it should. Christ said that we are forgiven but we should also forgive each other. Sometimes those faults or slights that happen, on a daily basis for some, are unintentional and sometimes they aren’t but we should forgive and seek forgiveness just as Jesus did for those who crucified Him. Remember, it was our sins that nailed Him to that cross and He forgave us anyway.

Rejoice!

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Philippians 4:4 NIV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/php.4.4/19122

Be joyful, not because it’s Christmas but because Jesus Christ died for you. He made it possible for you and me to live in eternity with Him. We can’t get to heaven without knowing Jesus as our Savior. I pray that all who read this will seek Jesus for salvation because the time is growing short.

My Savior is alive!

The resurrection of Jesus Christ is proven because He lives! He is coming back to rule humanity one day soon! These are proven because they are in God’s Word! One has already happened and the other is a promise from God and He doesn’t break His promises.

God has loved humanity, the whole human race, since before He created the Earth so I don’t believe that He has abandoned us as some may believe. God is in control and everything that is happening is being brought about by His sovereign power. There are no surprises from His point of view because He lives outside of time. He knows what is happening now and what will happen tomorrow and many years ahead as well.

God provided a way for us to have salvation through Jesus Christ alone. To some, this may seem “exclusive” but His Word says that “through Him is the only way to salvation“; granted, I paraphrased it but you get the idea. From the thief on the cross, all the way to anyone to calls on His name today and until the church is taken up to be with Him, Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven…period.

Make sure that you are ready because when the Trumpet sounds and the dead in Christ come out of their graves to meet Him in the air and those of us who are alive and remain in Him will meet Him as well, there will not be a second chance. If you don’t rise to meet Him then you will have to accept Him or reject Him and you will have to live through the Tribulation. By accepting Him now you can escape the trials of the Tribulation because it will be like hell on Earth during that time. I pray that you will come to know Him if you don’t already.

He is the Light of the world

Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. John 8:12 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/jhn.8.12/67211

People must know!

This post is about only one piece of news: Jesus is the Messiah and the Savior of the whole world!

He came as a baby and was born in a stable with only a feeding trough for a bed, wrapped in swaddling cloths. God came to us in human form as Jesus the Christ. Born of the virgin Mary, betrothed to Joseph. He came to live as one of us, tempted as we are and feeling all of the pain and the problems that we have but He did it without sin. Something that we can’t do on our own.

Jesus came not to rule or to reign as a conqueror but as the Savior of mankind! In the few years of His ministry, Jesus healed many of their afflictions and raised some from being dead. He saved us from being dead toward God because of our sins and He gave us the ability to come before God with our prayers and our problems. We need to take this information out to the world around us and let everyone see that Jesus is the only way to be saved from our sins and from hell itself.

So, why did God send His Son to be the Messiah, the Savior of the whole world? Because He loves all of you so deeply He didn’t want any of you to be separated from Him. But, there are always going to be some people who don’t want to live as a Christian believer in Jesus and His sacrifice. Why? Because they want to help God save them by doing some things their way and not God’s way. Sounds a little crazy doesn’t it? I mean, why would God need our help to save us from an eternity in hell? The answer is…He doesn’t! All that we need to do is believe that He loves us enough that He made it possible for us to have salvation through His Son, Jesus, just by believing in Him and the work that only He could accomplish. That’s how the thief was saved. All that he could do was ask Jesus to remember him when He came into His Kingdom and Jesus told him that “today you will be with Me in Paradise”.

It only takes belief in Jesus’ atonement for you and a determination to follow Him for the remaining time that you have on Earth.
