YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE BECAUSE OF GOD!

This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.
1 John 3:16 |NIV
God did something amazing-he came down in the flesh and became a sacrifice for our sins. He came and did something we did not deserve-He become our Servant. He laid down His life for his followers. This is something, in our own self-righteousness, we could never have done! Not even if we decided to (which would have probably been impossible)! Our lives are not our own but are still active by and are built on God's mercy. You are NOT here because of your faithfulness. You are NOT here because you have never sinned. You are NOT here for any other reason than this: it is by the grace of God that you are alive and well! Did you know that some people slept but didn't wake up today? You did. You woke up, and ate food. Don't always be thinking about that mate who has a fantastic job, that mate who has a cool car. Have you thought about those mates who are blind, deaf, jobless or homeless? No. Be thankful. Your life is not your own, but is working and was built on God's mercy. Without God, you and I wouldn't be here today. Without God, you and I wouldn't even be alive here. We would probably be facing judgement by God and being whipped to hell in a second. It's God who gave His life. It's God who saved us. It's God! Serve Him and be thankful as you sleep this evening. 
Bye!

Revere Christ as Lord!

"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." - 1 Peter 3:15. Whenever we are being trialled or tested for our faith, we should never deny it. Take the opportunity to tell them about God. Preach to them and give them the chance to hear about God. It may work, it may not. But all you know is, you accomplished your part of the mission. You've preached to them. Now it's there decision to come to Christ. Notice the Bible says do it with GENTLENESS. We don't use violence to try and preach the Gospel. We don't force people to believe in our reality. We use one of the fruit of the spirit (See Galatians 5:22 for a full list) Now you may wonder why Peter says 'with respect' when God says: "Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:" - Acts 10:34.

Most Powerful

8 I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. (‭Psalms‬ ‭16‬:‭8‬ KJV) In this verse, David is actually having a revelation about Jesus from the Holy Ghost. Let me explain. You see- as Christians, Jesus is the one who is before us. The One we follow. He is at our right hand and protects us. And because of Him, we are not moved. The Lord is you Leader, Provider and Guide. Without him, your steps would be without guide and you would have no knowledge of the path you are taking. You would be vulnerable to Satan and he will be able to destroy you. But-thank God- he can't destroy us. Christ lives in us, the most powerful Thing ever!
