God Loves You And Wants You To Love Him TOO

"This is real love — not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins" (1 John 4:10). 

God loves even the sinner and wants them to turn away from their sinful life and turn toward Him. He will forgive their sin if they turn to Him and accept His Son Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. He will help them to become good persons and healthy, wealthy persons physically as well as spiritually if they obey Him.

The Holy Spirit Help Believers of Jesus Christ

The Holy Spirit is ‘Helper’, Guide’, ‘Instructor’ and ‘Comforter of the followers of Jesus Christ.

 When we received Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, God gives us the Holy Spirit to help us live a God’s will life.

BE PATIENCE AND TRUST THE LORD

Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong;  for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away. . (Psalm 37:1-2)

 Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. (Psalm 37:3)

Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. (Psalm 37:4)

Jesus Is The Saviour of All.

“ My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins,and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.” .(1John 2:1-2)

NOTHING CAN SILENT A JOYFUL HEART

A man with leprosy came to him (Jesus) and begged him on his knees,
“If you are willing, you can make me clean.”
 Jesus was indignant (filled with compassion).He reached out his hand and touched the man,
 “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!”
 Immediately the leprosy left him and he was cleansed. Jesus sent him away at once with a strong warning:
 “See that you don’t tell this to anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the sacrifices that Moses commanded for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”
Instead he went out and began to talk freely, spreading the news. As a result, Jesus could no longer enter a town openly but stayed outside in lonely places. Yet the people still came to him from everywhere.’ (Mark 1:40-45)

THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE

“built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone,” (Ephesians 2:20)

Jesus Christ is the cornerstone of the building which is His church. He cements together Jew and Gentile, male and female—all saints from all ages and places into one structure built on faith in Him which is shared by all.

The ‘Church’ means ‘saved people through Jesus Christ” (Romans 16:5)

‘Believers’ are compare to a building as the Holy Spirit lives in ‘true believers’. If you have accepted Jesus Christ as ‘Lord and Saviour’, the Holy Spirit lives in you and you are like a building for the Holy Spirit.

God gives the Best

We always ask God to give us what we want. God answer all the prayers of His children when we pray with faith. But He may not gives us what we ask of Him. He may wait for the best time to give us , He may not give us what we ask Him. Instead, He may give us something much better than we ask. Because, God loves us and knows the best for us. 

EAT THE BREAD OF LIFE :

Can one be ‘man’ but is ‘bread’?

But “Then Jesus declared, “I am the BREAD OF LIFE. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty”.” (John 6: 35)

This is because, Jesus is God, God the Son. God can do anything He likes. God is the Creator of everything out of nothing. He can do whatever He wants to.

Again, Jesus is speaking about spiritual things, not what you and I am thinking. The Jews wondered and asked Jesus, “How can this man give us his  FLESH  to eat?”

Even many of His disciples could not understand and said, “This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?”

Resurrection of Christ is a Guarantee for Believers

Jesus came to the world and lived among man as man. He taught people about ‘The Kingdom of God’ and how to get in there. He taught that the only way to get into the Kingdom of God is to believe the only True God, His father in heaven and received His Son, Jesus Christ as Lord and saviour.

Jesus died for our sins on the cross so that we may have ‘eternal life in God’. He rose again on the third day and He sits at the right hand of God, the Father in heaven.

Jesus is Our Way to God

Jesus Loves and cares for us. He knows our weakness that we often commit mistake. Even then, He loves us and stands for us before God the Father and pleads in our favour.

He is our Advocate and Mediator. He pleads for us and intercedes for us (1 John 2:1). He is always pleading our case before the Father, like a defense lawyer on our behalf. (Hebrews 7:25).

Jesus intercedes for us while Satan accuses us, pointing out our sins and frailties before God, just as he did with Job (Job 1:6-12).

Jesus is the only mediator between God and man. “For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus” (1 Timothy 2:5).

SHARE YOUR BLESSINGS TO RECEIVE MORE

Telling good news to others is pleasing to others as well as to us. Telling the story of our New Life in Christ is more pleasing to our mind and soul than any other good news.  Because, spiritual blessing is the root of all other blessings.
When we tell others about our good news, God’s love in Christ (Gospel), we enjoy the God’s blessings more as the Apostle John says, “……And we are writing this that our joy may be complete.” 1 John 1:1-4.)
In fact, every true believer desire to share with others what God has done for him, as the Samaritan woman ( John 4:28-30).
Some feel compel to tell others as Peter and John, " for we cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard." (Acts 4:20)

REJOICE IN TEMPTATION

One verse of the Bible I had struggled to understand with much difficulty was James 1: 2, which is read Count it all joy, my brethren, when you meet various trials,” (James 1:2)

God make me understand this now and tell you here :

It is say ‘all persons face temptation’. In fact, not every body is tempted. Only good or not bad persons are tempted to do wrong.

The thief need not be tempted to steal, stealing is his regular work. The drunkard does not need any temptation to drink wine. Wine is his everyday drink.

Only one who never steal is tempted to steal and one who never drink wine is tempted to drink wine.

If you face temptation, it is the proof that you are good person or at least not so bad person. Satan envy your good character and wants you to act against the will of God.

BE LOYAL TO AUTHORITIES

The Bible instructed us to be loyal to authorities, as all authorities are instituted by God. The Bible says,

“Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.Therefore he who resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of him who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain; he is the servant of God to execute his wrath on the wrongdoer.

Therefore one must be subject, not only to avoid God's wrath but also for the sake of conscience.  For the same reason you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God, attending to this very thing.

Pay all of them their dues, taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due.” (Romans 13:1-7)

Christ Reign on earth and in heaven

The Christian world is Christ Kingdom on earth and is increasing daily. It will always increase and will never decrease. It will last till Christ return to earth and when He come again, He will transform it to His glorious majesty.

JESUS COMFORTS US

Jesus says, “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me.” (John 14:1)

Do you believe in Jesus?

If yes, then, “Do not let your hearts be troubled.” (John 14:1), by obeying Him as He also says, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.” (John 14:23)

GOD’s REMEDY FOR ALL PROBLEM:

May God give you His Remedy for all your problems and grant you a blessed life.

I’ve been praying to God every time I need His help since my childhood. But did not know how He answer prayer. Now, I understand God anwers our prayers in His own way. He grants us what we need instantly sometimes, when the prayer is of the righteous person as says in Jacob 5:16. However, in majority cases, He wants to give us His Remedy to solve our problems if we constantly and humbly seek His help. His Remedy is Jesus Christ. When Jesus Christ lives in us, all our problems are solved.

Walk by the Spirit

Love your neighbour as yourself

“My brothers and sisters, you were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love. For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command:

 “Love your neighbour as yourself.”

 If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.(Galatians 5:13-15)
