Do you know my Jesus? Do you know my Jesus? Have you heard how He loves and how He abides with me despite all my shortcomings? I serve a good God! A forgiving God!
I am taking the opportunity this morning to introduce you to a man called Jesus. That man saved me and gave me victory over sin. That man walks with me and talks with me, He holds me up when I am about to fall, He said ask of me anything and by faith believe, and you will receive, He said call upon me and I will answer you, He said lay all of your burdens at my feet and I will give you rest, and He said open your mouth wide and I will fill it with good things. He has filled my mouth with His word that I share with you, hoping that you too will stand on the word of God.
“What a wonderful, a very wonderful thing to be freed sin, and have life within, to be made a joint heir with Jesus my Lord what a wonderful, wonderful, thing.”
You cannot celebrate what you have not experienced. Every day I am in hallelujah mode because I have experienced the goodness of Jesus, and when I think of the goodness of Jesus, and all that he has done for me, it gives me a reason to rejoice, and my heart then cries out hallelujah, as I give God thanks for saving me.
“Real, real, real, Christ so real to me, many people doubt him, but I will not live without him, that is why I love him so he’s so real to me.”
Dear Lord, I am so thankful that I believe, that I know in whom I believe. Lord, you have redeemed me, you went all the way to Calvary to give me the gift of salvation, and I have accepted it joyfully. You continue to show me your marvelous works, you are a constant in my life, and I will not live without you. To God be the glory!
“Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe; sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow.” Thank you, Lord, for daily cleansing renewal!
“For nothing good have I, whereby Thy grace to claim; I’ll wash my garments white, in the blood of Calv’ry’s Lamb. And now complete in Him, my robe, His righteousness, close sheltered ’neath His side, I am divinely blest. Because Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe; sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow.”
But God raised Him from the dead, releasing Him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for Him to be held in its clutches. Acts 2:24
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. 1 Peter 1:3
“Death cannot keep its prey, Jesus my Savior; He tore the bars away, Jesus my Lord!” Death could not hold Him; the grave could not hold Him. He arose!
“Up from the grave He arose; with a mighty triumph o’er His foes; He arose a victor from the dark domain, and He lives forever, with His saints to reign. He arose! He arose! Hallelujah! Christ arose!”
“Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me, I once was lost but now I’m found, was blind but now I see.”
“Behold the man upon a cross, my sin upon His shoulders, ashamed, I hear my mocking voice, call out among the scoffers. It was my sin that held Him there until it was accomplished, His dying breath has brought me life, I know that it is finished.”
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. John 3:17
“How deep the Father’s love for us, how vast beyond all measure, that He should give His only Son, to make a wretch His treasure. How great the pain of searing loss, the Father turns His face away, as wounds which mar the Chosen One, bring many sons to glory.”
For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16
“I will not boast in anything, no gifts, no power, no wisdom, but I will boast in Jesus Christ, His death and resurrection. Why should I gain from His reward? I cannot give an answer, but this I know with all my heart, His wounds have paid my ransom.” Thank You, Lord!
“So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,till my trophies at last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged cross, and exchange it someday for a crown.”
“On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross, the emblem of suff’ring and shame; and I love that old cross where the Dearest and Best, for a world of lost sinners was slain. So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross, ’till my trophies at last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged cross, and exchange it someday for a crown. Oh, that old rugged cross, so despised by the world, has a wondrous attraction for me; for the dear Lamb of God left His glory above, to bear it to dark Calvary.” Thank you, Lord!
