No Matter What Happens God is With You
.
Even when life seems out of control, you can be sure of this... God has a plan and a purpose for you. Because of God’s love for each one of us, He provided a plan for our salvation - the way that we can become a part of His family and live the life He has promised us. But, because of God’s deep love for each one of us, He provided the way of salvation – the only way that we are able to enter a relationship with Him. This plan is called "the Gospel."
.
The word
Gospel means "Good News." The Good News is that God Himself has
already made all the arrangements for your salvation. No matter what you have
done, Jesus Christ’s sacrifice is able to pay the penalty for your sin.
.
God loves you and wants you to be His own child. Through Jesus Christ, you can experience a personal relationship with God and enjoy a life of peace and hope. When Jesus died on the cross and shed His blood for our sin, He bridged the gap that separated us from God. It is only through Jesus Christ that we can know God personally. It is through Jesus alone, that we can experience God’s love, enjoy peace and hope, and receive the gift of eternal life.
The 700 Club
We live in a
chaotic and uncertain world.
Events confront us
that can make us question: how can I know God and what is His plan for me,
today?
Even in the most
troubled times you can be sure of these things:
1. God loves you and has
an incredible future planned for you.
In the Bible, God
tells us:
"For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord.
They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a
hope." Jeremiah 29:11
Jesus, Himself,
when speaking about the people who belong to Him, put it this way:
"My purpose is to give life in all its
fullness." John 10:10
Even when life
seems out of control, you can be sure of this... God has a plan and a purpose
for you.
Because of God’s
love for each one of us, He provided a plan for our salvation - the way that we
can become a part of His family and live the life He has promised us.
2. Our sin has separated
us from God.
Mankind is sinful.
We only have to look at the world around us to know this is true.
You and I have not
lived up to the standard of God’s holy and perfect law.
As a result of our
sin, we are separated from God.
In this state of
separation, we cannot know God or experience the peace and hope of the life He
has planned for us.
"For all have sinned; all fall short of God’s
glorious standard." Romans 3:23
"For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of
God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23
"If we say we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves
and refusing to accept the truth." I John 1:8
But, because of
God’s deep love for each one of us, He provided the way of salvation – the only
way that we are able to enter a relationship with Him.
This plan is called
"the Gospel."
The word Gospel
means "Good News."
The Good News is
that God Himself has already made all the arrangements for your salvation.
No matter what you
have done, Jesus Christ’s sacrifice is able to pay the penalty for your sin.
God loves you and
wants you to be His own child.
3. Jesus Christ is the
only provision for our sin.
Through Jesus
Christ, you can experience a personal relationship with God and enjoy a life of
peace and hope.
When Jesus died on
the cross and shed His blood for our sin, He bridged the gap that separated us
from God. The Bible outlines this incredible plan:
"God showed us how much He loved us by sending His
only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through Him. This is
real love. It is not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son
as a sacrifice to take away our sin." I John 4:9 –10
"So we praise God for the wonderful kindness He has
poured out on us because we belong to His dearly loved Son. He is so rich in
kindness that He purchased our freedom through the blood of His Son, and our
sins are forgiven." Ephesians 1:6-7
"For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the
offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through
Christ." II Corinthians 5:21
It is only through
Jesus Christ that we can know God personally.
It is through Jesus
alone, that we can experience God’s love, enjoy peace and hope, and receive the
gift of eternal life.
4. We must each receive
Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.
Just to give mental
agreement that Jesus died on the cross is not enough.
Each of us must
turn to God, acknowledging our sin and powerlessness to save ourselves.
We must ask Jesus
to come into our lives and receive His sacrifice as total payment for our sins.
We exercise our will and do this as an act of faith.
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only
Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal
life." John 3:16
"I assure you, those who listen to my message and
believe in God who sent me have eternal life. They will never be condemned for
their sin, but they have already passed from death into life." John 5:24
"Jesus told her, 'I am the Resurrection and the Life.
Those who believe in me, even though they die like everyone else, will live
again.'" John 11:25
"God saved you by His special favor when you
believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation
is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about
it." Ephesians 2:8–9
God sees and
understands your heart. There are no magic words or precise formulas you must
pray or say.
You can talk to God
right now in the quietness of your heart and invite Him into your life as your
Lord and Savior. Here’s a simple prayer:
"Dear Jesus, thank You for
loving me and dying on the cross for my sin. I want to know You personally. I
invite You into my life as my Lord and Savior. Thank You for forgiving me of
all my sins and for the gift of eternal life. Help me to grow close to You in
this new life You’ve given me."
If this prayer
expresses the longing of your heart, pray it right now. Jesus will hear you. He
will save you and come into your heart and life.
You will become a
child of God and receive eternal life. If you have made a decision to trust
Jesus, you have been born into God’s family.
God’s promise to
you is that He will never leave you or abandon you.
"But to all who believed Him and accepted Him, He
gave the right to become children of God." John 1:12
"I will never fail you. I will never forsake
you." Hebrews 13:5
One of the best
things you can do right now is to tell someone about your decision.
"For if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is
Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be
saved." Romans 10:9
God has given you
another gift.
Now that you have
believed in Jesus, God has sent His Holy Spirit to live in your heart.
The Holy Spirit
will help you in your new life and teach you about God.
God tells us His
Holy Spirit is our Comforter and Counselor, who will bring us peace and guide
us into all truth.
"And I will ask the Father and He will give you
another Counselor, who will never leave you. He is the Holy Spirit, who leads
into all truth." John 14:16–17
"And when you believed in Christ, He identified you
as His own by giving you the Holy Spirit …The Spirit is God’s guarantee that He
will give us everything He promised and that He has purchased us to be His own
people. This is just one more reason for us to praise our glorious God." Ephesians 1:13–14
The Bible says we
are to grow in our faith. We do this through praying to God, reading the Bible,
spending time with other Christians, and obeying the Holy Spirit’s prompting in
our lives.

Remember, now that
you belong to Jesus, nothing can separate you from Him.
No Matter What
Happens, you have God’s promise of eternal life and His peace and protection
for your life now.
"And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us
from His love. Death can’t, and life can’t. The angels can’t, and the demons
can’t. Our fears for today, and our worries about tomorrow, and even the powers
of hell can’t keep God’s love away. Whether we are high above the sky or in the
deepest ocean, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from
the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38– 39
God bless you! May
the joy of God’s salvation fill your heart, today and always.
