Jesus Christ is Lord.
Without Him we can do nothing, without Him we have no hope, not future, no expectation,
without Him we will PERISH.
To most people Jesus is not part of their lives.
He is on the outside and He will not force Himself on us.
We have to embrace Him and invite Him in.
Jesus is knocking on the door of our hearts to come in.
He gave this message to the apostle John in the Revelation of John, Revelation 3:20 “'Behold,
I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in
to him and will dine with him, and he with Me.'He who overcomes, I will grant to him
to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His
throne.”
Without Jesus we can do nothing but He wants to come into our lives, He wants to dine with
us.
He wants to LIVE with us, BE with us and He promises that if we OVERCOME we will sit down
with Him on His throne.
That is what He is promising us but we have to invite Him in, we have to OPEN THE DOOR
and invite Jesus in.
We have to OBEY THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST.
He will come in if we OBEY Him, if we open that door and if we REPENT and turn away from
our wicked ways, turn away from going after sin, the pleasures of sin and our own ambitions
and trying to have our own life away from Jesus Christ.
If we turn away from that and embrace Jesus, He will COME IN, He will forgive our sins,
our past sins, He will blot it out and then we have to OBEY Him; be baptized in water
for the washing off of our sins and He will give His Holy Spirit to come and live WITH
us, IN us, to be WITH us for eternity.
And He will guide us, He will teach us so that we will OVERCOME.
We will overcome the desires of the flesh, we will overcome the temptations of sin because
we are with Jesus and He is with us.
But, dear friends, if we do not open that door and invite Him in, He will not come in.
If we do not clean up our lives of all evil and unrighteousness, He will not come in because
He does not share space with evil, unrighteousness and with the devil.
He will enable us to OVERCOME if we embrace Him and invite Him in and if we STAY WITH
HIM.
But we have to STAY WITH HIM until the end to be able to overcome.
It is only those who overcome that will sit with Him on His throne, the rest will PERISH.
Do you hear Him KNOCKING AT YOUR DOOR?
Will you invite Jesus in or will you let Him stay on the outside?
Invite Jesus in, follow Him, obey Him, and stay with Him until the very end and you will
sit with Him on His throne.
May Jesus bless you.
