JESUS TAKES AWAY SIN

The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

John 1:29

Sin separates man from God. This is precisely what happened to Adam. When Adam sinned, he became estranged from God. He no longer had a healthy and living relationship with God, where God and Adam would fellowship together. He became separated from God, all because of sin. He was driven out of the Garden. Adam first died spiritually and then physically.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 6:23

Jesus came to restore the relationship that was lost between God and man. He came to give us life eternal life, life as God has it. When you receive Jesus and confess Him as your Lord and Saviour, you receive eternal life and you are reconciled and restored to a relationship with God.

That is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

2 Corinthians 5:19

Thank God for Jesus, He is the Lamb of God that was slain; He became our sin offering. He died for the remission of our sins and God raised Him from the dead for our justification. Man is reconciled back to God through Jesus. He should be the centre of our message and not us. When we have sinned, we go to Him and He takes away our sins. He does not judge or condemn us. Jesus is full of grace.

And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace.

John 1:16

As we come to Him daily, He washes us and we end up being more and more like Him. We receive grace upon grace. The more we spend time with Him, the more we become like Him. Hallelujah! Jesus has saved us from our sins.

And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His people from their sins.

Matthew 1:21

Thought of the day: Jesus takes away the sin of the world.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, You are the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world, thank You for saving me. Amen.

THE POWER OF THE WORD

“Is not My word like a fire?” says the LORD “And like the hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?” Jeremiah 23:29 The word of God will purify you and break your stony heart. The word of God will make you holy and soften your heart. If you will give yourself to the word it will change you. Jesus said, “Sanctify them by Your truth, Your word is truth.” Sanctify them by Your truth, Your word is truth. John 17:17 The word is powerful nothing compares to the word. It will transform you and reshape your destiny. The word will make your life beautiful. If you will stick to the word it will make you an absolute success. So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified. Acts 20:32 The Bible says that you are born of the word and that makes you an absolute victor in life. You can never be defeated, you can never be disadvantaged in life; you can live your life in perpet...

YOU LIVE IN THE ARK

Now the flood was on the earth forty days. The waters increased and lifted the ark, and it rose high above the earth. Genesis 7:17 When the Lord destroyed the earth with the flood, there was a flood for forty days and forty nights, Noah and his family where in the ark, as the water rose, the ark rose above the waters. As a child of God, figuratively, you live in the ark. The world around you may be going through trouble but you are safe in the ark. You are in the world but you are not of the world. When the world is going through trouble you just go upward and forward. You are resting in God’s grace and love. You have peace on the inside, you are untouched by trouble. There could be pestilence and famine going on around you but it will not come to you. A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you. Psalm 91:7 Live in the secret place of the Most High, “in the ark,” in His presence and His glory. There no weapon for...

PRAY FOR LEADERS IN YOUR COUNTRY

Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. 2 Timothy 2:1-2 As a child of God it is your responsibility to pray for leaders in your country. Leaders in your country are appointed by God and you need to pray for them not criticize them. Therefore submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake, whether to the king as supreme, or to governors, as those who are sent by him for the punishment of evil doers and for the praise of those who do good. 1 Peter 2:13 God can speak to their hearts to favor the church. God can speak to their hearts to make decisions that are in line with His Word. That is where your prayers come in; your prayers are needed for God to work in your leaders’ hearts. The king’s heart is in the hands of the LORD, like the rivers of water; He turns it wherev...
