People Need The Lord

The world can seem rather chaotic and dark.  There is a lot of bickering back and forth.  There is much division among people of all walks of life.  There is something definitely wrong in our world today.  There is a lack of love and respect for one another.  There is definitely no fear of God whatsoever.

Everyone seems to want to do what is right in their on eyes and pay no attention to what God says is right.  There is still right and wrong believe it or not.  God is the one who declares what is right and what is wrong.  God is the Creator and Maker of all things.  He says sin is wrong.  Nothing sinful can ever enter into His presence because He is Holy.

We have all sinned and we have all fallen short of God's high standards.  We are all deserving of being eternally separated from God and placed in a literal hell outside of His presence.  God made a way for us to be reconciled back to a right relationship with Himself by sending His one and only Son, Jesus Christ.

Jesus came to this earth and lived a perfect and sinless life.  Jesus was fully man and fully God at the same time.  Jesus went obediently to the Cross where He shed His blood for our sins.  We are called to repent of our sins and receive Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.  Jesus rose to life on the third day.

Everyone who calls on the Name of the Lord will be saved.  We must place our faith in the grace of Jesus Christ in order to be saved.  We can't earn our way into Heaven.  We must receive this grace by placing our faith in Jesus.  When we sincerely repent of our sin and receive Christ as Savior the Holy Spirit comes to dwell within us to make us more like Jesus everyday.  This work of the Holy Spirit in us will last our entire life and won't be completed until we enter Heaven and see Jesus Christ with our very eyes.

The world seems hopeless and heading towards total destruction, but I tell you that there is still hope through the Lord Jesus Christ.  He is the true living hope for you and me and for the entire world.  Peace is possible, but the world won't find peace in a President, a world leader, or any particular person, place, or thing.  The only one that can bring true everlasting peace into people's hearts is the Lord Jesus Christ.

Jesus tells us to come to Him and find the rest that we have been searching for.  We must come to Him and trust in Him.  We need to read the Bible and believe what it says.  We must allow the Holy Spirit to lead us and direct our steps no matter how difficult that may be at times.

We must remember that God is still God and God is still good.  The Lord is still at work in our world and in our lives.  He is working out all things for our good.  We love the Lord and He loves us so greatly.  Let us continue in the race that the Lord has set before us and let us persevere with our eyes firmly upon the Lord Jesus Christ.

We may stumble, sin, and fall flat on our face, but we must repent and get back up and continue on with Jesus in full view.  The Lord knows we will struggle and falter at times, but He is always willing to forgive when we confess our sins to Him.  The Lord accepts up through the shed blood of Jesus Christ when we place our faith in the Lord Jesus.

May we not become discouraged with the way the world is, but may we be in constant prayer to the Lord.  May we continue to cry our to the Lord for mercy on our land and on our world.  There needs to be a call of repentance and a turning to the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation.  There is coming a day when the Lord will come in Judgment.  Everyone will have to give an account for how they lived their lives here on the earth.

Those who are trusting in the Lord Jesus Christ and His finished work on the Cross will enter Heaven and be with the Lord for all eternity.  Those who have refused to repent and turn away from their sin will be sent to hell because they refused to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

There is only one way to have your sins forgiven and there is only one way to the Heavenly Father and that is through His one and only Son, Jesus Christ.  Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.  No one comes to the Father except through Him.

I would encourage you to continue to pray that the Gospel message will continue to spread and that the Holy Spirit will continue to pull people out of the bondage of sin and open their hearts to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Lord,
We praise Your Name.
We love You O Lord.
I pray for the spread of the Gospel of Jesus Christ throughout this world.
I pray that every believer in Christ will be empowered by the Holy Spirit to tell others about Jesus.
I pray for a revival to spread throughout this world.
I pray for a Holy Spirit fire to spread throughout the Body of Christ.
May it start in me O Lord.
Come Soon Lord Jesus.
In Jesus Name I pray,
Amen.
