Keep hearing the word of Christ

So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. - Romans 10:17

The bible says faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God. The word God here refers to Christos - Christ. We are to keep hearing and hearing the word of Christ. Not just those words in red but the word concerning Christ Jesus and His finished work at the cross.

When we hear the word of Christ in the bible, faith rises from deep within and there is an inward knowing everything is going to be alright. For the bible says all things will turn out for good for those in Christ! We just have to believe the word. For there is power in hearing the word of Christ for it is one way God talks to His people.

You can hear your way out of every challenging situation. Be it an addiction or an evil thought, all can be replaced by the merely beholding Jesus in the hearing of His word! There is power in His word to transform and to sozo us. The word sozo means to make whole in every aspect of our lives. Jesus wants to make right what's not right in our lives. He came to give us life and life more abundantly!

That's the master plan of God to have His only begotten Son to take our place of sin at the cross so that we can take His place of righteousness at the right hand of God! This is the perfect redemption plan God has in mind all along. He wants His creation to enjoy Him to the fullest and not dwell in the pitiful state of sin all the days of our lives. Believe God always has good thoughts toward us. He has thought of grandeur for us. He wants us to be the head and not the tail!

Keep hearing the good news. For the gospel is the GOOD news. It is about Christ and His finished work at the cross. At the cross, Jesus finished a completely complete work of redeeming us from a life of sin. He has paid the price for our punishment and we are to receive His blessings upon our lives. It is not our works to be right with God but Jesus' work that makes us right with God!

We can also hear our fear out of our minds. We don't have to understand how it is done. That's God's part. We just avail ourselves to hearing His word and the word has the power to transform our lives! Keep hearing Jesus' word and see the wondrous powers of God working mightily in and through our lives. Hallelujah!

Jesus Is The Savior

Rejoice! For your Salvation is here. His name is Jesus.

For God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son to die for the world that through His Son's sacrifice, the world can be saved. Whosoever accepts Jesus as his/her Lord and Savior shall be saved. His whole household shall be saved as well! We may not know how our loved ones shall be saved but God surely knows and leave the how to to God. Our job is to believe.

What did Jesus come to save us from? First and foremost, Jesus came to give us His righteousness. He came to give us His peace. Whosoever believes in Jesus shall be saved from eternal damnation. He shall be grafted into the kingdom of God. He shall be son of God. He is a Christian! He is set apart from commonness.

Jesus came to take our place of sin so that we can take His place of righteousness. Through Adam's sin, all human race are made to be sinners. Through the one complete sacrifice of Jesus Christ at the cross, all who believe shall be made the righteousness of God in Christ.

With this new Sonship comes peace. With this new Sonship comes joy. With this new Sonship comes health. With this new Sonship come prosperity. With this new Sonships come blessings which cannot be untold.

However, some of us may be experiencing things which are contrary to our inheritance in Christ. Some of us may be feeling the pain of certain terminal disease. The symptom may be so overwhelming that we think there is no way of healing. The negative reports may have come fast and furious. BUT, Jesus is the final answer! He is still the healer today.

While He was on earth, He healed everyone who came to him. Even when someone is dead, Jesus was still able to call forth the dead into life. Jarius' daughter was dead by the time Jesus came to his house. Yet, Jesus simply breathed life into the little girl and she was resurrected! Lazarus was dead for more than four days by the time Jesus came to his tomb. With one loud proclamation, Lazarus was raised from the dead!

Jesus is more than willing to heal us of all diseases and illnesses. There is no disease that Jesus cannot eradicate from our bodies. Believe Jesus and believe in His word. Partake of the passover feast as regularly as we want for non shall be feeble after partaking of the passover feast!

Some of us may be experiencing lack in the area of finances. The bible says our God will supply all our needs according to the riches and glory in Christ Jesus. He freely gives us all things, through Christ, to enjoy! Continue to honor the Lord by tithing our increase, regardless of how meagre it may be and see your finances increase thirtyfold, sixtyfold and then hundredfold! See abundance coming your way. For it is God's pleasure to see His children with more than enough to be a blessing among their loved ones.

Jesus is the Savior. He is saving even today. Be it a relationship issue, be it a work challenge, be it a ministry problem, be it anything which is negative in our lives, Jesus is still saving us. Continue to believe His word and stand firm on His promise that He will never leave us nor forsake us. Jesus will always pull through for us! Hallelujah!

Is Jesus the central focus of our lives?

Are we, the beloved of the Lord, putting Jesus Christ as our central focus? Are we still looking at our circumstances and judge them based on our senses? Are we still measuring our standing with God based on our performance?

Jesus Christ is there before the foundation of the earth. He is the first and the last, the beginning and the end, Alpha and Omega. His one single and perfect sacrifice at the cross is efficacy for all ages, from the first man to the last man who will ever live. God demonstrated His perfect love for the human kind at the cross where Christ, with His outstretched arms, declared the work of redemption completed!

With that one completely complete work at the cross, whosoever accepts Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior shall be saved. He shall be made the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. He is drafted into the kingdom of God. He is a son of God. We inherit whatever Jesus has. We can have the peace, the peace which surpasses all understanding, that He has bequeathed to us. Oh! What a glorious God and what marvelous work has Jesus accomplished at the cross!

When Jesus declared "It is finished!" at the cross some two thousand years ago and rose from the grave three days later, it meant the reconciliation process has been completed. We are been reconciled with God through the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ. And because He was hang on the cross, He has taken away all our curses. We are now free from any punishment from God for all punishments have been exacted on the body of Christ. No curse shall befall us as well.

With that one sacrificial act at the cross by Christ Jesus, all blessings in the bible are ours to proclaim. We can have what Christ has. We shall be abundantly supplied for in all things. We shall be in robust health for by His stripe, we are made completely whole.

Circumstances may seem to be contradicting with what the bible says. It may seem to be so real that we just take our eyes off Jesus and focus on the issues at hand. Sometimes, the going may be so tough that we completely forget we have a mighty God who is able to do all things, including turning our bad situations for our good!

Symptoms of diseases or illnesses may appear in/on our bodies but they shall not take root in/on our bodies. This is the promise of God that we shall be healthy and live a good long life. For death and life are in the power of the tongue. We thank God for our health everyday and proclaim victory over our circumstances, regardless of how bad it may seem. Continue to believe God only has good thoughts toward us and He wants the best for us. Continue to trust in His love for us. Believe God will always turn all things for our good.

Look to Jesus. Behold Him. See Him in every situation and issue. See Him taking control of the situation. Trust Him to provide a way of escape when it seems there is no end to the difficult situation. Cast all your cares at His feet for He cares. Don't rely on our human strength but instead rely on His unending love for us to see us through. Guard all your heart above all guardings for out of it springs forth the issues of life.

Continue to trust in God for every providence. His grace is sufficient for the day. Live the let go life and see the wondrous work of God manifesting mightily in our lives. Hallelujah!
