"Believers love boat - Pst festus omorusi"
Becoming intimate with Jesus"
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. --John 1:1
Becoming intimate with Jesus"
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. --John 1:1
What does “the Word was God” in
today’s verse mean? It means “face to face with God.” It describes the most intimate kind of communion and union.
Christ left the intimacy and “face-to-faceness” with God… He left the glory of heaven and the majesty of God’s presence… and came to earth.
Think about that for a moment. Jesus left heaven to be born in a stable… to walk among men on the dirty streets of Galilee.
He lived and died and rose again as a human being. Isn’t it amazing that God would walk among us? But why would He do this?
He did it because He loves you and
me… and He wants you and me to
come into a personal relationship with Him. But because we are separated from God by our sin, we can't know God or experience God or get near to God in His absolute holiness.
So God came near. He came down in the person of Jesus Christ and paid the price for our sin by dying on the cross. So let me ask you, how have you responded to Jesus Christ in your life?
If you’ve accepted Him your personal Lord and Savior, I praise God that you’ve made the best decision you will ever make. Make up your mind to maximize that relationship to the fullest.
But if you haven’t made this decision, what’s stopping you from accepting God’s free gift of eternal life right now? Stop playing church, quit deceiving yourself and surrender your heart to Jesus. God came to earth in the person of Jesus Christ and paid the price for our sin by dying on the cross.
Pray with me: Lord bring me close to you in love in Jesus name!
May your day be blessed!
