Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. Matthew 18:21-22
Forgive! Forgiveness is a choice. Forgive someone who has hurt you. It may be your parents, sibling, friend or enemy.
Forgiveness will free you. Jesus said 70 times 7. Seven, God’s perfect number. How can we forgive? Ask Jesus to help you. Not only to forgive but to forget and move on.
There is a beautiful song…Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full into His wonderful face and the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace.
In these troubled times, we need to look to Jesus.
“Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:2
“The Only Thing Necessary for the Triumph of Evil is that Good Men Do Nothing” John F. Kennedy
Evil is running rapid all over the world, and even in the USA and it seems that nothing is being done. What can I do? You might ask. One man or woman with the power of the Holy Spirit can make a difference one soul at a time. How? Witness of the love and grace of God. JESUS is the answer. Do something today, tell someone about Jesus, the Prince of Peace. Don’t be a “do nothing”.
1 Peter 2:15 For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
Jesus is a wonderful Savior! He warns us against things that Satan will use to harm us or cause us to question God.
Satan wants to steal our purpose, vision, joy, and family through doubt and discouragement. One thing Satan cannot steal from a Christian is salvation.
When you trust Christ as your Savior, believe He died on the cross for your sins and repent, you are accepting the gift of Salvation which is your eternal security.
As our children in America go to school, what we expect them to do? Learn, be obedient and respectful to their teachers and make good friends.
Most people if they are born in a Christian home, and in America, think they are God’s child. But that is not true. The Bible tells us that we “must be born again”. We are NOT a child of God until we accept His Son, Jesus, as our Savior.
Then, how much more should we as Christians become as children. God wants us to study His Word, be obedient to Him, respect our pastors and teachers and have fellowship with other believers. Are you His child?
Did you make a New Year Resolution? Maybe it was to loose weight, stay on a budget, or exercise every day. Whatever it is, usually we have good intentions. Then reality comes in and we fail.
There is one resolution that is more important than any other. That is to read the Bible and pray everyday.
This is one resolution that is vital to your spiritual health and happiness. Do not allow anything to stop you from communicating with your Savior, Jesus, on a daily basis. He loves you.
Without communication there is no relationship. Start today!
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: Mathew 7:7
