Do you know God?

Sometimes God dramatically interrupts our lives to get through to us. But other times, His work is slow and subtle as He patiently leads us to a place of readiness to obey Him. If God is speaking to you in the quiet of your heart and you haven't already received His gift of salvation, don't wait for an unusual event to occur. He is ready to welcome you now, just as you are, wherever you find yourself. There is only one path to life with God and eternity in His presence: Repent of your sins, confess your belief that Jesus is the Son of God, and receive Him as Savior. You can use the following prayer or your own words. ----> Lord Jesus, I believe You are truly the Son of God. I confess that I have sinned against You in thought, word, and deed. Please forgive all my wrongdoing, and let me live in relationship with You from now on. I receive You as my personal Savior, accepting the work You accomplished on my behalf once and for all on the cross. Thank You for saving me. Help me to live a life that is pleasing to You. In Your name we pray, Amen.

Jesus Is Lord Whether You Agree or Not

BIBLE MEDITATION

“For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord” -- Luke 2:11


“Therefore, let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ” -- Acts 2:36


 

DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT

Can you imagine what it meant to Mary to hear the angel say to her, “You shall call His name Jesus”? 

Or for those Jewish shepherds the night of his birth to hear the angels say, “…born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord”?


What does the word “Lord” mean? 

What did it mean to these shepherds? 

It meant “Jehovah” to them. 

….........…..Jehovah, God Almighty!


When the angel said, “a Savior who is Christ the Lord,” the angel was saying He is co-equal, co-eternal with the Almighty.


Jesus Christ is called “Lord” far more than He is called “Savior.” 

He’s called “Lord” 747 times in the New Testament. 

………..He is Lord!

Every so often someone says, “Well, I decided to make Him Lord.” 

Too late for that….. 

…..................…...He is Lord!


ACTION POINT

You cannot “make” Him the Lord of your life. 

You can only reject Him or receive Him as Lord. 

You can bow your knee to Him and say, “O Lord, You are the King. Therefore, I yield my heart to You.” 

Receive Him today as your Lord. 

Will you submit to His Lordship?”
