I want to introduce you to my best friend. His name is Jesus. He loves me more than anyone ever has before, or ever will again. He loved me enough to:
-
To suffer great humiliation, for me.
-
To suffer intense pain, for me.
-
To die a criminals death, for me.
-
To spend three days in Hell, for me.
-
To carry my sin on His sinless soul.
All of this He did for love. He did it all for love of ME
It is a nice but sad story if it ended here.
I am grateful it does not end here. For after three days:
-
Jesus arose from the dead, for me.
-
He lives in heaven, for me.
-
He interceeds with the Father, for me.
He is preparing a mansion, for me.
He lives within me.
He guides my thoughts, words and deeds.
He has a plan for my life.
At life's end, He's coming again, for me.
If it ended here, it would be a good story, but it does not end here.
When Jesus comes again, He will take me to be with Him eternally. I will bask in the light of His presence. I will gaze on His wonderful face. I will live in the joy of His love and His peace. I will receive a crown of life and reign with him in a new kingdom that never will end.
If it ended here it would be a wonderful story, but it does not end here.
You can also be a part of the story. You too can be a friend of the Lord Jesus Christ. You too can enjoy his presence in your life. You too can be filled with his peace and His joy. You too can reign in a world without end.
Jesus stands today at the door of your heart. He is knocking gently and softly calling your name. He is asking to be allowed to come in and dwell with you.
You don't have to be perfect. You don't have to be clean enough. You don't have to be pure enough. You don't have to be good enough. You just have to be willing to let Him come in. He wants to come in and be your friend and Savior -
NOW
Behold I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears My voice and opens the door. I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with Me.
Revelation 3:20
If it is truly the desire of your heart to invite the Lord Jesus into your life today, then please pray this prayer with me:
Dear Heavenly Father, I come before you today as one who has sinned and is not worthy to even touch the hem of your garment. But Lord, I'm so sorry for those sins and I truly repent of each and every one of them. Wash me Father and make me clean in your sight. Come in Lord and live in me from this day forth and for ever more. In Jesus Name, Amen.
