Guess What? God Has A Plan For Your Life!
Did you know that you were created and uniquely designed by God for a great and wonderful purpose? It is the will of God to be in a loving relationship with you whereby He can bring you into His great plans for you and your family.
"For I know the thought that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not evil,
to give you a hope and future." (Jeremiah 29:11)
Yes, it is true my friend, God has these plans for you too. God is the creator of all life, and every life was created for purpose. In the beginning, when God created everything, He said it was good! So guess what? God started something really good when He formed you, and it is His desire to complete that good work in and through you.
"Being confident of this very thing, that He which has begun a good work in you will perform
it until the day of Jesus Christ." (Philippians 1:6)
Friend, no matter who you are, or what you've done, God loves you and desires to be in relationship with you. His love and desire for you is so great that He sent His only son, Jesus Christ to redeem you back to Him. That means everything that separates you from Him has been removed because of Jesus Christ and you can have access to God and walk in fellowship with Him, as He intended from the beginning of time. Jesus took responsibility for all of your sins and wrong doings and became the sacrifice that redeemed you back to God. Through Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection, you now have a right to this new, abundant, and eternal life in God, which is through Christ Jesus.
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but
have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through
Him might be saved (John 3:16, 17)
Do you believe these glorious truths in your heart? Are you ready to walk in new and eternal life through Christ Jesus? If so, pray this prayer: Jesus, I need you. I now open my heart to receive you. Lord, I am a sinner and I want to be saved. I believe you are the son of God who came and died to save me and you arose arose from the dead with all power in your hands. So at this moment, I make you the Lord of my life and I give you my life for the rest of my life. Fill me with your spirit and finish the good work you began in me. In Jesus name, Amen.
"That if you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead,
you will be saved. For with the heart man believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on Him shall not be ashamed." (Romans 10:9-11)
Friend, there is nothing that we could ever do to earn our salvation. It is by His grace, a gift from God. Although it cost us nothing, it cost Him everything. As undeserving as we are, His great love and purposes release this unmerited grace to us so that if we believe in the son of God, we too are made children of God.
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that
we should walk in them. (Ephesians 2:8-10)
Beloved, Jesus has forgiven you and set you free from the bondage of sin. You have been saved and forgiven. No longer allow the enemy to hold you hostage because of your past. Your past, has passed... and now God is moving you into a future that has many promises. Walk in the liberty that you have received through Christ Jesus.
"I, even I, am He that removes your sins for my own sake,
and will not remember your sins." (Isaiah 43:25)
Well friend, welcome to the family! I've been praying for you and awaiting your arrival. It's good to have you in the Kingdom of God. There is a place and purpose that only you were created to fulfill in this kingdom, and as you walk with God He will reveal it to you. He has great things in store for you and desires to turn your life completely around! Give Him lordship and rulership over every area of your mind, body, soul, and life and you'll never be the same again! More importantly, through the gift of eternal life through Jesus, God has done more for you than you could ever imagine because He has changed your eternal dwelling place from the everlasting damnation of hell to the everlasting joy of heaven! Read & study His Word and He will reveal to you Himself, His promises, and His plans for your life. I would love it if you would e-mail me personally so I can pray for you and encourage you in this new journey. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Because they must hear,
