Jesus Christ the Son of God!!

 Isaiah 9:6: "For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."

Jesus was sent to this earth to restore everything the devil has stolen!! He was nailed on a cross, and brutally beaten for you and me!! He gave up His life for you and me!! Praise God for what He's done!! He freed us from sin, lack, poverty, fear, worries, sickness and the devil! We can live free!!

John 3:16-17: “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.  God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him."

 John 10:10: "The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."

1 Peter 2:24: "who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed." 

He has overcome!! His Name is above all names!! He gave us the victory!!

Ephesians 2:9-10: "Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."

Acts 4:11-12: "This Jesus is the stone that was rejected by you, the builders, which has become the cornerstone. And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”

What he has done... My sins are forgiven, I am free, I have authority over the devil. The devil is a defeated foe.  He cannot touch you and me.  By the blood of Jesus you and I are protected!! Jesus rose from the grave!! Death is defeated!! 

1 Corinthians 15:55-58: "O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?” For sin is the sting that results in death, and the law gives sin its power. But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ. So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless."

By grace you are save through faith! 

Ephesians 2:8-9: "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast."

Jesus Christ is our Living Hope!!

John 14:6: " Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."

We can live in freedom!! Jesus has broken every chain!! We are forgiven! Because He rose from the death, death has lost its grip on me!! No more fear, no more worries, no more sickness, no more lack.  The victory is mine through Christ.  

Become a Christ follower today and give your life to him today so you may live!! Be born again!! Be a disciple for Jesus!! Let your light shine in the darkness! Jesus is the true Light!!

John 8:12: "Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”

He gave up His life for you and me! Are you willing to give your life up for Him no matter what? The reward for giving up your life for Him is eternal life!! Choose Life!!

A Christian Walk:

 Almighty God created the heaven and the earth and everything on it.  He created you and me!! He gave us the authority to rule and reign on this earth!!

Genesis 1:1-5: "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.  Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.  And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.  God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness.  God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day."

Genesis 1: 26-28: "Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. They will reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the livestock, all the wild animals on the earth, and the small animals that scurry along the ground.” So God created human beings in his own image.  In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.  Then God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it. Reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that scurry along the ground.”

Jeremiah 1:5: "“I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb.  Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations.”

God gave us a freedom of choice!! He doesn't force Himself onto us!!  He loves you and me with an everlasting love. He sent His one and only Son to this earth to save you and me and to have an abundant life!!

John 3:16: “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life."

John 10:10: " The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."

Deuteronomy 30:19-20: " This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the Lord is your life, and he will give you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob."

Choose life, Choose Christ and receive eternal life. To follow Christ you must be born again!! You must die to yourself!! You must ask for forgiveness and ask Jesus to come into your life!! After you are born again then you will receive the Holy Spirit and also it is important to be baptised!!

John 3:3: " Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

Acts 2:38: "Peter replied, “Each of you must repent of your sins and turn to God, and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. Then you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."

Matthew 28:19-20: " Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

Galatians 2:20: "My old self has been crucified with Christ.  It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. "

As a born again believer your life is going to be a different lifestyle than the world's lifestyle! You will be a light in the darkness! You will no longer want to be part of the world's lifestyle. It is so very important to sit under the Word of God!! Study, meditate, speak, sleep, focus and eat the Word of God!! It is very important because then you will stand firm, and nothing will pull you down!!

Matthew 4:4: "Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’ 

 Romans 10:17: "So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."

Joshua 1:8-9: "Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do.  This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

God said, "Be strong and courageous." Do not be afraid!! Your Heavenly Father is always with you!! With the Lord on your side, you will always be victorious! 

Psalm 118:14: "The Lord is my strength and my song; he has given me victory."

Remember that Jesus has the victory!! He died on the cross and He was raised from the dead!! He has overcome so that you and I can live in victory!!

John 16:33: "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

It is a different lifestyle, you are going to be like a stranger in this world because you don't belong to this world anymore, you are in this world but not from the world! You and I are Kingdom property!! We belong to the Most High God!

Isaiah 54:17: "No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn." This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is from Me,” Says the LORD."

will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

he is my God, and I trust him.

For he will rescue you from every trap

and protect you from deadly disease.

He will cover you with his feathers.

He will shelter you with his wings.

His faithful promises are your armor and protection.

Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night,

nor the arrow that flies in the day.

Do not dread the disease that stalks in darkness,

nor the disaster that strikes at midday.

Though a thousand fall at your side,

though ten thousand are dying around you,

these evils will not touch you.

Just open your eyes,

and see how the wicked are punished.

 If you make the Lord your refuge,

if you make the Most High your shelter,

no evil will conquer you;

no plague will come near your home.

For he will order his angels

to protect you wherever you go.

They will hold you up with their hands

so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.

You will trample upon lions and cobras;

you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet!

 The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love me.

I will protect those who trust in my name.

When they call on me, I will answer;

I will be with them in trouble.

I will rescue and honor them.

I will reward them with a long life

and give them my salvation."
