Greetings,

A stunning declaration made by Jesus has defied the current trend of thought about multi-culturalism:

John 14:6 (NKJV) – “Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”

Christianity teaches that we must love everyone, and that all men are created equal. That belief is true. However, it does not posit that every belief system is equal. It cannot, because that isn’t true.

Unfortunately, a current belief being heavily promoted states that whatever a person believes is unimportant and that all roads lead to salvation.

Simple logic contradicts the truth of that statement. After all, two plus two will always be four, even if someone else believes the answer is five. Similarly, different spiritual belief systems can never be in agreement, since some teach the very opposite of that taught by others.

Jesus said that no one could approach the Father except through Him. That’s why He instructed us to go throughout the world teaching the Gospel. Our salvation depends upon knowing THE Truth. This is the reason we need to learn the Word of God.

Lord, I’m grateful beyond words that You revealed to me the Truth of who You are. I could be lost, confused and not know the Way. I am overwhelmed with gratitude that You allowed me to hear Your message of salvation and then say yes to Your call.

Today, I’m worshiping with Eddie James and “To Jesus.”  

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!

GREETINGS AND MERRY CHRISTMAS!

This world of ours has witnessed many incredible things. Today we celebrate its very greatest mystery: God became man! Two thousand years ago, our Creator God became Emmanuel, God with us. On this day we mark the moment that God became incarnate as a baby born in a manger, and begin His trek toward the Cross.

Like 2:10-12 (NKJV) Then the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. [11] For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. [12] And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger."

We needed a Savior for we could not redeem ourselves. God loved us so much that He sent His Son, the Holy Lamb of God, to pay the price for our forgiveness. Such love is amazing, overwhelming, astonishing and yet real. Why Christ would love us so much that He would come into our sin blighted and broken world to live among us, be betrayed, then suffer and die for us is beyond our understanding. Now that’s LOVE!

So how should we respond to such a gift? Thankfully, reverentially and thoughtfully are good ways to begin. Thankfully because we would have been lost had He not come and taken our place; reverentially, for a God so Holy that all of heaven praises Him deserves our deepest worship; and thoughtfully because we should not take what Christ did for us lightly or for granted.

Dear Jesus, thank You! I worship You, and today I focus my thoughts and attention upon You. I was not worthy, yet You came to redeem me anyway. The greatest gift anyone could ever possibly receive, not just today but any day, is the gift of salvation that You brought to us. How could I ever take it lightly?

Today I’m worshiping to MY JESUS I LOVE THEE BY DARLENE ZSCHECH

We love you and are praying for you. BE INSPIRED!

Greetings,

God wants you to enjoy the very best life you could possibly have! Does that surprise you? Many people believe that if they serve God, their life will be dull, boring, and unexciting. But that simply isn’t so!

Psalm 81:16 (NKJV) – “He would have fed them also with the finest of wheat; And with honey from the rock I would have satisfied you."

How many people do you know who are truly satisfied? They might have fine cars, houses, clothes and many possessions—but their souls are still empty on the inside. The truth is, God wants to feed us with the “finest of wheat” and “honey from the rock,” until our souls are fully satisfied!

So, what does that mean? It means that you will never be truly happy until your “inner man” is filled. Possessions, fame and fortune are never enough to satiate the hunger within us for more of God.

My precious Father, feed me with Your goodness until I am so satisfied that I want no more! You are the Water of Life that quenches the thirst of my desperate soul. You are the Bread of Life that fills me completely. Let my heart be filled with You.

Today, I’m worshiping with Leon Timbo and “I Lean Not on My Own Understanding.”  

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!

Greetings,

Child of God, never forget that God is not against you, He is FOR you! Based on the following scripture, I can assure you that He is on your side:

Psalm 56:9 (NKJV) – “When I cry out to You, Then my enemies will turn back; This I know, because GOD IS FOR ME.”

Because we were born into this world as sinners who desperately needed a Savior, we must make a conscious decision to surrender our hearts and lives to Christ. But even after receiving salvation, many continue to think of themselves as a guilty criminal standing before a righteous Judge who just hasn’t been judged yet. Nothing could be further from the truth once He has cleansed and washed you with His blood. Such erroneous beliefs will certainly hinder your prayers and your worship!  

Because of His grace, God sought you out and then saved you. Jesus cared so much for you, that He willingly suffered the terrible penalty of crucifixion for you so that you could be saved and paid the price in full. Let’s rejoice in the fact that God is on our side! Each one of us is highly favored and loved by God!

Today, Lord Jesus, I declare what You have said about me to be true. I am clean, I am forgiven and I am Yours. You have accepted me and I thank You for paying what it cost for You to save me. I affirm that You are for me and not against me.

Today. I’m worshiping with Upper Room and “One Thirst.”

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!
