David Wilkerson (1931-2011)
Jesus
came as one blood sacrifice, and the blood of this Lamb has power.
Power to
cleanse, power to heal, and millions upon millions around the world have
experienced the glory and the power of this cleansing blood of Jesus Christ.
We serve
the living Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.
Ask the
Holy Spirit to come and speak to your heart in that still, small voice.
If you
don't know Christ, that's what Easter is all about. I want you to take a step
as the prodigal son did: he walked back to the father.
First of
all, I want you to know that there's no sin that anyone has ever committed
that’s so horrible or so wicked that it can't be forgiven.
God
doesn't turn anybody down.
Secondly,
I ask you — once you've confessed your sins and believed in the cleansing power
of Jesus Christ’s blood — don't go back to them.
Give them
over, and don't let the devil haunt you with them because those sins are under
the blood of Christ.
Some of
you live in condemnation. You live in fear.
Believe
that this lamb was slain for you, and your sin was laid on his shoulder.
He
carried your sin, and he paid the price for that, and there's nothing you can
do to work it through.
So, right
now, just lay it down.
Then when these thoughts come back to hound you, say, “Jesus
is my righteousness. Christ is my righteousness. Christ is my righteousness.”
When
Satan comes and lies to you, when he tells you that you still have some devil
in you or whatever he says.
Right now, just say back: “Christ is my righteousness.”
Say it right now. “Christ is my righteousness.”
Glory be
to God. He is our righteousness. We deserved hell, and he gave us heaven
because we trust in him.
I want
you to allow the Holy Spirit to speak to your heart if you've drifted from him
and want to come back to his love and grace on this Easter.
The Bible
says believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shall be saved. I believe that.
I believe that with all my heart.
David Wilkerson was the Founding
Pastor of Times Square Church in New York City. He was called to New York in
1958 to minister to gang members and drug addicts, as told in the best-selling
book, The Cross and the Switchblade.
In 1987, David Wilkerson returned to
"the crossroads of the world" to establish Times Square
Church. As a pastor of the church, he faithfully led this congregation,
delivering powerful biblical messages that encourage righteous living and
complete reliance on God.
David Wilkerson had a strong burden to
encourage and strengthen pastors throughout the world. From 1999 to
2008, he traveled around the globe holding conferences for Christian
ministers.
