Christ our Redemption

Dearly beloved. I trust this finds you well and bubbling in the Lord. We thank God for the great plan of redemption that He had for us and the fact that we were given the opportunity to become children of God. John 3v16 tells us that God loved the world so much that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life. Amen. Do you believe that Jesus is the Son of God who came to die for you and I? He is.

John 1v10-13 (AMPC) tells us that “He came into the world, and though the world was made through Him, the world did not recognize Him [did not know Him]. He came to that which belonged to Him [to His own—His domain, creation, things, world], and they who were His own did not receive Him and did not welcome Him. But to as many as did receive and welcome Him, He gave the authority (power, privilege, right) to become the children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name— Who owe their birth neither to bloods nor to the will of the flesh [that of physical impulse] nor to the will of man [that of a natural father], but to God. [They are born of God!]”

Have you made a decision to accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour, to accept God’s plan of redemption? If you haven’t and you want to, you can pray along these lines:

Prayer

Heavenly Father. I thank You for today. I come to You today acknowledging that I am a sinner, that I have not been living my life to please You or in a manner that pleases You. I ask You to forgive me and wash me clean by the blood of Jesus. I believe that Jesus is Your Son and He wasn’t sent to condemn me, but that through Him I might have everlasting life. I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Thank You for hearing me and answering me, in Jesus name, amen. 

Beloved, if you said that prayer, know that there is great jubilation in heaven because of you. Praise the Lord. If you don’t have a Bible, do get one and start reading it. There are also loads of online resources e.g. www.biblegateway.com. Also, please find and join a bible believing church. 

God bless you.
