Daily devotions

The sinners prayer - Please link to this if you like.

Romans chapter 10

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him
from the dead, thou shalt be Saved. For with the heart man
believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession
is made unto Salvation. For whosoever shall call upon the
name of the Lord shall be Saved.......


Just pray the following prayer. Praying is not hard. All you are doing in prayer is talking to your Father. Just let Him know that you are glad He found you.

Heavenly Father:
I come before you in prayer asking for the forgiveness of
my sins offered through Your Son Jesus.
I confess with my mouth and believe with my
heart that Jesus is your Son, And that he died on the
Cross at Calvary so that I might be forgiven and have
Eternal Life in the Kingdom of Heaven.
Father, I believe that Jesus rose from the dead and I ask you right now to come in to my life and be my personal Lord and Savior. I repent of my Sins and will Worship You and only You all the day's of my Life!. Because your word is truth, I confess with my mouth that I am Born Again and Cleansed by the Blood of Jesus!

In the name of Your Son and my Lord Jesus, Amen.

If you do choose to accept Jesus as your personal savior then please drop me a line at justmeherenow@sbcglobal.net and let me know so I can keep you in my prayers and give thanks and glory to God for allowing you to know Him.
May God Bless you all!

Our Redeemer

Just a short note on what it truly means for Jesus to be our Redeemer.
Gods law has to be followed, even by God. We owe a debt to God because of original sin.
Most people nowadays will tell you how unfair it was of God to hold us responsible for something that we had no control of. I think it should be looked at from another perspective to show that God has been more than fair in all of this.
Yes, we had no control of the original sin. Yes, that seems unfair. How can I see fairness in this?
God knew from the very beginning that we would not be able to follow his law and had the solution before we even knew we had a problem.
Although we had no part in the original sin, God made sure that we had a way out of in the person of His Son Jesus.
How fair was it to Jesus to be on this world, living in this flesh, not sinning but being held accountable for all the worlds sins? Although he did nothing wrong, he accepted the punishment that was due for all of us and died in our place.
We don't have to be held accountable for the original sin. We just have to accept that Jesus loved us so much that he was willing to come to this earth, giving up his place with God, and dying for us so that we did not have to.
Salvation is a free gift that is offered by God through the sacrifice of His Son on the cross.
Imagine that your birthday is here and you have a really cool present sitting by the cake. If you never pick up your gift but just leave it sitting there does it benefit you in any way? No! The person who gave it to you isn't going to just take it back so it is yours. But without accepting it the value of the gift is nothing to you.
This is salvation in simple terms. Jesus gave you a gift when he died for you - redemption from your sins. All you have to do is pray to God, admitting that you are a sinner and that you want the gift that He has offered.
If you do choose to accept Jesus as your personal savior then please drop me a line at justmeherenow@sbcglobal.net and let me know.
May God Bless you all!

Believe or not to believe - the Rapture is coming.

I think most Christians would agree, it doesn't really matter if one believes in the Rapture or not, it is going to happen. Christians are more likely to argue over its pre, mid or post occurrences than whether or not it will occur.
My question is for those who doubt its occuring at all.
With the way the world is going now, it seems hard to believe that anyone out there could doubt that something is happening with our world. We have children killing children, people that are going hungry in our very own country, modern day plagues and a list of world-wide problems that would make your head spin.
All one has to do is read the Bible to see our modern day headlines spelled out in black and white, written over 2000 years ago.

I know that if your not a Christian you won't just swallow what I write and that is good. Jesus Himself tells us to be wary in these end-times of false teachers and I think that is very good advice. My hopes and prayers will be that anyone who reads this will be moved enough or curious enough to pick up a Bible and begin reading. May God bless you all!

why do bad things happen to good people?

Does everything happen for a reason?

In my opinion, yes.

It's not just the bad things that happen to us, it is also about the good. Why do we complain about what happens to us, or what kind of lives we live when it does not matter in the long run? We need to remember that if God wants it to happen, it will.

Since bad things do happen why do we decide to complain about them since we know that God has given us all his love and support to deal with them?

So much love that he sent his only Son to die for our sins. Jesus paid for something He didn't owe because we owed something we could not pay.

Jesus died for something he did not even do; commit sin!

He was beaten with whips and nailed to a cross. Did He complain? No! He asked His Father (and ours) to forgive them (us) of their (our) sins because they did not know what they were doing! Yet we still want to complain.

I believe that everything does happens for a reason. The reason is Gods will.
Maybe instead of complaining we should take a moment and give God the thanks He deserves for even letting us live.

He paid a debt He did not owe........

" He paid a debt He did not owe because I owed a debt I could not pay."

That really says it all, doesn't it?

Have you ever stopped and actually thought about the salvation that is offered through our Lord and Savior Jesus? This salvation is not something that can be earned or bought by us, it has already been bought and paid for by Jesus.
Too many people seem to think that salvation is hard, or that they have to do this or do that to "make" it work. Nothing is further from the truth. God loves you so much that he sent his only son to pay the price for your sins.
