Bible Verse of The Day – 6-21-16

John 1:12 (NKJV) 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name…

As many as received Him, He gave the right to become children of God!

Wow! What an awesome statement from God’s word.

This particular verse lays everything out, in black and white, making it very clear that if we embrace Him, put our faith in Him, receive Him, we will become His children. It also makes it very clear that if we deny Him, reject Him or choose not to put our faith in Him, we are clearly not His children.

In today’s world, political correctness has led many people astray, causing them to say that there might be more than one way to the Father, to eternal life with Him. But this one verse lays all debates to rest on this issue.

If we believe, we are His children. If we don’t, we are not. Very plain and very straight forward.

We are born as children, but not as children of God.

So if you ever feel confused or have any doubts that being a child of God requires action on our part, remember this verse.

And if you have never put your faith and trust in God, don’t wait any longer. Do it today.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-5-14

(John 3:17 NKJV) “For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

God’s heart is to see the world come to Him. He wants each one of us for His own.

He wants us to have eternal life, to be saved. How do we get to be saved?

(Romans 10:9 NKJV) that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

Today, if you have not done this, it is your day. God is calling you to Him and we pray that you, in return, will answer to Him.

Give Him your heart. You will have a friend that will stick by your side through thick and thin. You will never be left alone to handle things on your own. He is faithful to help you through this life and give you eternal life.

Prayer of salvation…

Dear God,

I’m a sinner and I come today and humbly ask for Your forgiveness. I confess with my mouth that Your Son, Jesus Christ, died on the cross for my sins and was raised from the dead.

I believe in my heart that Jesus Christ is the Savoir of the world. This day I ask Him to come into my heart and be my Savoir.

In the name of Jesus I pray. Amen.

Praise be to God! If you prayed this prayer, the angels are rejoicing, for you are born again! You are a child of the most High God. Jesus is living in you and you can cry out to God, in the name of Jesus Christ, and He will help you in any area of your life!

Please let us know if you prayed this prayer. We are standing with you and praying for you.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-3-13

John 1:11-13 (NKJV) 11 He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: 13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

Jesus came to present Himself to the world, as a living sacrifice, to redeem a sinful humanity from our sins.

The vast majority of His own people (the Jews and those from His hometown) rejected him. But He didn’t come just for those people.

He came for “as many as received Him”! He didn’t limit His sacrifice only to the Jews or the people who knew Him as a boy. He gave of Himself freely for anyone who would receive Him unto themselves.

To these people, He gave the right to become children of God… sons and daughters of the King… the Most High God!! That applies to you and to me!

Have you received Him? Going to church doesn’t make us children of God. Believing that God exists doesn’t make us Children of God, for even the demons believe and they tremble! Singing modern spiritual songs or old hymns doesn’t make us children of God. Although all of these things are good, not a single one of them makes us His child.

We must receive Him by believing that He died for our sins and putting our faith in Him.

So I ask you again, Have you received Him?
