REMAIN IN LORD JESUS CHRIST

" If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.." (John 15:7)

We are commanded to pray, God promise us to answer “‘Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.”(Jeremiah 33:3).

To get answers to prayer - we are to remain in Him, to remain in His perfect will at all cost.

“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is —his good, pleasing and perfect will.” (Romans 12:1, 2). 

Sin - Its Existence

"It is impossible to deny the existence of sin, when the whole world is in conflict between good and evil. If sin were not a fact, there would be no crime; we would not need jails or prisons. We would need no locks on our doors, or vaults for our valuables.  To some, sin is being indiscreet; or it is a weakness of the flesh.  To others, it is the absence of good. To the so-called scholar, sin is ignorance; and to the evolutionist, it is the nature of the beast.  The latest theory is that sin is a disease to be treated by science, because man is not a sinner - he is only sick. To others, sin is a form of selfishness, but God declares that:

Sin - Its Origin

"The origin of sin is one of the mysteries of the Bible. "The secret things belong to the Lord our God." (Deuteronomy 29:29). Its origin is one of the "secret things" that will remain wrapped in obscurity. Sin was first noted in the heart of Satan. He was created a perfect being, " . . . Until unrighteousness was found in you." (Ezekiel 28:11-19). Satan fell from perfection when he exerted his will above the will of God. Five times he said, "I will" (Isaiah 14:12-17). It was his will over God's will - this is sin.

Pray

Prayer is a Conversation With God

Prayer is a conversation with God. One part of a conversation is talking. The other part is listening. This is the privilege we have as Christian. Enjoy talking with God always.

God loves you.(1 John 3:1). He created you to enjoy a personal relationship with Him. Prayer is the best way to have constant fellowship with our Creator God. He wants you to talk with Him always. He wants you to tell Him about your condition regularly.

The more time you spend with Him, the better you get to know Him and the more you grow to love Him.

Sin - Introduction

 
"In considering the question of sin, we are faced with two startling facts.
 
The first fact is that man makes so little of sin.  To some, it is an illusion - a religious mirage - the invention of some fanatic.  It is denied, joked about, and laughed at by man.  Many who believe sin to be a fact, continue in it with little thought of its penalty.

What is the biblical method of evangelism?

S. Michael Houdmann

When trying to decide how to share Christ with someone, the starting point should be the same as that of John the Baptist and Jesus Himself. Matthew 3:2 tells us that John began his ministry with the words "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near." Repentance refers to a "change of mind," which implies sorrow for past offences (2 Corinthians 7:10), a deep sense of the evil of sin as committed against God (Psalm 51:4), and a conscious decision to turn from sin to God. The first words Jesus spoke when He began His public ministry were identical to John's (Matthew 4:17).

Call Jesus To Help You Overcome Temptation

Satan never wants you to be in relationship with God. He always try to pull you down. when this happens, call your Saviour Jesus Christ in prayer. Ask Him to help you overcome temptation. Trust esus Christ, who is able to help you. God promises you will not be tempted more than you can bear

JESUS IS ALWAYS WITH YOU

We sometimes doubt, frustrated, and feel weak and all alone. But we are never alone; Jesus Christ is in you. He wants to help you. He wants to make you a Godly person (Philippians 1:6). He wants to give you all you need and take care of you daily (Hebrews 13:5).
Jesus knows the weaknesses of His followers. He knows that we need spiritual power. He wants us to know that, even though we cannot see Him in our naked eyes, He is with us. That the Holy Spirit is with all His followers to take His place and help us.(John 14:16).
The Holy Spirit is our Counselor, Helper, Teacher, Guide and “comforter.”  
Jesus promised His followers that the Holy Spirit will guide us to the truth (John 16:13). He will leads you (Romans 8:14). He will enrich your spiritual life (John 6:63; Romans 8:11). He will help you to live Christ like life (Galatians 5).
The Holy Spirit will also make you a dynamic witness of Jesus Christ to other people (Acts 1:8).
Therefor, read the Bible daily and always pray.

Talk With Your Friend

You stay with your friend the whole day without talking. What will your friend think of you? He/she will think, you are angry with him/her.

Jesus calls us ‘Friends’ (John 15:15) He  is with you always. You don’t talk with Him the whole day. What will He think of you? He will think, you are angry with Him.

Are you angry with your Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ?

If not, please talk with Him. He wants that you to talk with Him.

Talking with God is called ‘Prayer’.

Pray to God always. Then, He will help you and bless you.

Love Never Ends

“Love never ends” says the Bible in 1 Corinthians 13:8 ESV.

In other versions, its says, “Love never fails”.

What’s about your ‘Love’? Will it ‘end’ or ‘fails’?

Your ‘Love for your partner, ‘Love’ for parents, brothers and sisters, your love for Jesus Christ, God. Will your  Love for them ‘end or fail’?

Both ‘words’ are translated from the same word and are same in representing the nature of God, (Never ends, never fails).

Read verse 8 in full :  “Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.( 1 Corinthians 13:8 ESV)

God has given us many good qualities – such as knowledge, strength, courage, skill, beauty, sweet voice, and others. All are temporary and all will pass away. Everything may pass away. But, “Love never ends, never fail”.

Because, “Love is God” (1 John 4:8) ‘Love’ is the nature of God.

God is eternal (Hebrews 9:14). So, ‘Love is Eternal’.

God gives us His quality and nature ‘Love’.  This is God’s ‘image in us. But, the true Love, the true quality of God is only in His children, who believed in Him and receive His only Son Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.

If you want to have this ‘true Love’, call Jesus in prayer. Invite Him to become your Lord and Saviour. Pray Him to forgive you, your sin and the sin you committed in not inviting Him earlier.

If you want your spouse (life partner) to have this ‘true love of God’, pray for him/her. Tell him/her to call on Jesus and receive Him as Lord and Saviour.

Jesus will come and live in you, with your spouse. He will give you the best Love (true love of God) and will bless you abundantly.
