Sometimes in the midst of the trials and troubles that we face we forget that the God who created the universe and everything in it loves us so very greatly. God is crazy about us and He desires that we have an intimate relationship with Him. God invites us into a relationship with Himself through Jesus Christ.
We all have sinned and we have all fallen short of God's glory. We have all missed he mark. There is not one of us that is good enough in our own effort to earn God's forgiveness. Nothing sinful can ever enter into God's presence because He is Holy.
The Lord made a way for us to be reconciled back to Himself by sending His one and only Son, Jesus Christ, on a rescue mission to save us sinners. God demonstrated His love toward each one of us by sending Jesus to the Cross to die for our sins. It is through the shred blood of Jesus Christ that we are saved. Intellect will not save us. Philosophy will not save us. Only Jesus can save.
We must come to Jesus by faith and trusting in His sacrifice for our sins. There is no other name under Heaven in which people must be saved by. We are saved by grace through our faith in Jesus Christ.
Jesus didn't stay on the Cross. Jesus didn't stay in the tomb either. He arose from the dead on the third day and one day He will return as the King of kings and the Lord of lords. We need to be ready to meet Him.
We can be ready by confessing to the Lord in prayer that we are a sinner and we can't save ourselves. Then we must be willing to repent of our sins and receive the Lord Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.
Lord Jesus,
Thank You for Your finished work on the Cross and the shedding of Your blood for our sins.
Lead us and guide us by Your Holy Spirit.
Help us to spread the Gospel to our family and friends.
In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen.
