IF YOU HAVE JESUS, YOU HAVE THE EAR OF GOD!

TODAY’S SCRIPTURES: “For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.” Romans 8:14

“When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.” John 16:13

TODAY’S MESSAGE: When we accept Jesus, we are accepting all of the rights and honors that come with that great moment in our lives. We are accepting his way of living, loving and leading our lives. Once we accept Jesus as Savior, he accepts us into the family of God as His child. It is with this acceptance that we understand that we also have the ear of God, for it is through Jesus that God recognizes and listens to each of us. It is through the acceptance of the sacrifice that God gave to us, Jesus His Son, that opens the doors of heaven itself. It is through this acceptance that our lives begin to change so that we continue to become conformed to the image of Jesus. We are not approved by God by our successes in life or how much we give to the poor, but instead we are approved by God on the basis of our faith. It is through this faith that we develop the giving attitude and accept the successes from God. We must believe that he hears our every prayer. We must believe that he does take actions in our lives, and we must believe that every action he takes, no matter whether we agree or disagree, is at his direction and for his good. We do have God’s ear. When we go to him in the name of Jesus, he listens to our every word. He hears us and responds to our needs. It is through Jesus that our lives become something other than a part of this world. It is through Jesus that a place in heaven is secured for us, a place that we so greatly desire and are thankful for. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
