It is difficult for people who are not “in the Faith” to understand the depth of experiences for those who “walk with the Lord”. I remember as a teenager and young adult having the thought that if I lived my life like I wanted, having fun, then I would consider Jesus close to the end of my life, when it wouldn’t make that much difference. At that time, I didn’t know if Jesus was real, but I thought maybe it was possible. Obviously if Jesus really is the Son of God, you would want to know it.
People who aren’t sure if God is real, will definitely not believe in the Devil. And that leaves them defenseless. The Devil hates God and His Creation, and especially His special ones… the men and women who are created in His Image. You have an enemy of your soul, who does not want you to know God, and who will plant thoughts of doubt and unworthiness into your mind. He will deceive and blind the unsuspecting.
I discovered that Jesus is real, and I made Him Lord of my life. I was saved from eternal separation, and made a son of the most High God, and a co-heir of Christ Jesus. I became a new creation. Destined for Heaven, to live and rule with Him forever. All of this lines up perfectly with what is described in His Word, the Bible.
The Bible is like a vault filled with Promises and Blessings, of which the depth and width cannot be measured. Before I knew Jesus, I thought finding Jesus would be the end of life… but in truth, it is only the beginning. The longer I delayed knowing Him, the longer it took to start my eternal journey. It is beyond description… beyond imagination.
SO if we walk in Faith, we will walk in Victory. We can enjoy answered Prayer, empowered with the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. And some will catch a vision of being builders.
Prophets have a bubbling up within them that overflows out of them so that they must declare the Word of God as He dictates… or bust. Others are “moved by the Spirit of God” to be in service, using their God given gifts and talents for the glory of God, in Jesus Name.
When we start out following Jesus, it’s like being in “boot camp”, being trained and discipled. One day, we start our service… and we continue to grow in Christ… lead by His Spirit, until we have done our work this side of Heaven.
And what we have built will be tested. What excitement is in the journey.
If we are “In Christ”, we will have all we need for a full and satisfying life. The Bible says “Today is the day of Salvation.” Start your journey today.
If you want to start your journey today, there is a Video on this Web Site in the section called “From the Host” titled “Making Jesus Lord”. Watch it… pray with it, in Faith. This is the Beginning.
God Bless You and Yours.
