Jesus Christ is alive. He is the Gospel. When we repent of our sin, do not return to it and instead turn to God, we are redeemed. When we choose to surrender our own will to Jesus Christ, when we give our heart to Him, we are renewed with Him. He is the only way to God, He is our salvation. Simply remain. Abide. Yes Lord simply remain - though life is layered and deep we are to simply remain in the presence of Jesus, magnificent Jesus.

Psalm 63:1-4 NASB “O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly; My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, In a dry and weary land where there is no water. Thus I have seen You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory. Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, My lips will praise You. So I will bless You as long as I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name.
King David earnestly seeks God. His soul thirsts for God. There is longing to be in God’s presence. There is urgency. Do we seek God like this? Do we desire the return of Jesus Christ in this manner? Jesus asks us to abide with Him, each and every one of us, and for thousands of years He has continued to invite God’s people to return and remain with Him.

Take a deep breath, in the quiet or noise of where you are at right now and step into Easter remembering what God says about you, His beloved child, and take captive any thought that doesn’t align with His Word. {tweetme}There is nothing in our present or future circumstances that can weaken His love.{/tweetme}There is no power above us or beneath us—no power that could ever be found in the universe that can distance us from God’s redeeming hand.

The days are moving quickly, those who believe in Jesus Christ must get back to the basics of His truth, relying on faith unseen, trusting Holy Spirit’s supernatural presence, the forgiveness at the cross, the resurrection, the power of God, the blood of Christ, and other potent spiritual realities God has unveiled in His word to those who believe. This is the only way we, God’s people, can stand firm as brothers and sisters united by Jesus, singing worship carried to Him on hands raised with praise for our magnificent Lord, all while ministering to the fracturing world around us in the cities, towns, families and communities God has invited us to join Him in.

Jesus is the reason we have faith, worship, and eternal salvation. We believe in the name of Jesus Christ, and no other name is as worthy of our praise. He is the only way to God because He is God. If we are to be saved, we MUST go through Jesus. He is the one way; to escape the eternal punishment we justly deserve for our rebellion against God it is necessary to acknowledge and declare Jesus Christ as the risen Saviour who was crucified for mankind’s sins- and conquering death - He rose again! It is absolutely necessary to accept that and believe it!

The realization of who Jesus Christ is brings us to our knees, to understand that we are sinners to the core in desperate need of God’s grace and forgiveness.
Friend, Holy Spirit does not make us aware of our sin and leave us to drown in it, He helps us understand that God has to provide the solution because we cannot save ourselves. Be honest but not ashamed. Trust the bending and growing with Jesus, He is teacher, healer, and holy holy holy.

The Bible records generations of people, some of whom understood what was going on in the spiritual world and followed God’s lead, and others who were asleep or missed His plan entirely. May we be people who repent. Seek God. Meet with God. Return to God. He is the only answer to everything that comes our way in life. Remain focused on God. There is a colossal spiritual battle happening for the souls of every person, we need the indwelling of Holy Spirit.

John 16:7-15 NASB But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you. And Holy Spirit, when He comes, will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment; concerning sin, because they do not believe in Me; and concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father and you no longer see Me; and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged. “I have many more things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take of Mine and will disclose it to you. All things that the Father has are Mine; therefore I said that He takes of Mine and will disclose it to you.
Jesus calls us His people, He has sent Holy Spirit. When we acknowledge and declare that Jesus Christ is the risen king, Holy Spirit will dwell within our hearts, our minds, within our lives. Not to make our walk here easy but to guide us on the right road, salvation, sanctification, to God’s eternal kingdom..

Are we living every moment as though Jesus was at our side, as though He is walking towards us at any moment? May God give us the mercy and grace to live with an eternal perspective, living every day like people who see beyond what is in front of us and are ready for His return.

The fact is, despite our choices, despite our past, despite our wrinkles, our value in God’s eyes has not changed. He alone gets to decide our worth. And by His grace, forgiveness, compassion and peace the Lord invites us to follow His lead, providing His strength, joy, certainty and His commission, right on time.

How bewildering to learn that Christ does not get flustered and frustrated when we come to Him for fresh forgiveness, for renewed pardon, with distress and need and emptiness. We need salvation and Jesus is the rescue of humanity.

And Jesus answered saying to them, “Have faith in God.” Mark 11:22 NASB
Truly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is going to happen, it will be granted to him. 24 Therefore, I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be granted to you.

Jesus is the light of illumination. All that has been hidden will be revealed by the light of God. All the internal darkness our hearts have been immersed in will be lifted and replaced with the beautiful, guilt-lifting covering of God. {tweetme}Imagine the astonishing clarity and warmth of such a light upon your face! Amazing grace!{/tweetme}
The light of Christ that we get to carry now as His lanterns and will one day live under can be experienced every day, as God gives us glimpses of it through the reassurance of Holy Spirit in our hearts. God is never obscured by the darkest night. Whatever our eyes are unable to see, God sees with undimmed clarity.

We rejoice at Christmas, we celebrate the day Jesus Christ was born among His people! Hallelujah! God makes Himself available to everyone at all times and promises us that He will never leave our side, not even for a moment. When we, by faith, accept Jesus as the risen Saviour, we will be transformed and made aware of His nearness by the power of Holy Spirit. We then recognize that peace is with us wherever we go because Jesus Christ is peace!

We owe glory, praise and honour, gratitude and worship to Jesus the risen King. With all that we, along with the brothers and sisters in our communities and across all nations, have gone through the past several months may we find Him in our darkest hours. I know that maybe this Advent season we feel that we just don’t have it in us to celebrate. Maybe this past year has been overshadowed by a heaviness that refuses to budge, like the joy has been sucked out of you. But Scripture teaches us that Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day for all of humanity! Those who are broken, hurt and disappointed. Those who are celebrating and joyful. Those who have strayed so far from God, and those who rest under His covering. Jesus was born in a barn for the messy and the forgotten. He came to restore the wholeness that comes from a relationship with God. He came to flood our hearts with peace that just doesn’t make sense in todays’s world. Like a warrior who goes to battle to protect a kingdom, Jesus came not merely to wash away our sin but to conquer sin, to conquer death. As we celebrate this season, lets not forget: We can only be forgiven, healed, and set free because Jesus Christ was born. That is Christmas.

This year November 27, 2022 is the first day of Advent - fantastic! It is the dual celebration of waiting patiently for Jesus Christ to return while at the same time joining with generations in the heavenlies celebrating the day He arrived the first time as a child in Bethlehem and was revealed to us! Praise God!
