In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” (John 1:1-5, 14)
The only begotten Son of God came from heaven to earth to dwell among us. The purpose of our LORD and Savior coming to earth is to rule as King of Kings and Lord of Lords and receive our worship forevermore. Luke19:10 says, “He first entered the earth “to seek and to save the lost” … “to save His people from their sins.” (Matthew 1:21)
He came the first time not to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.” (Matthew 20:28)
Jesus died and rose for all born-again believers those who would believe in Him and confess Him as LORD. On the cross Christ bore our guilt and suffered the punishment due to all who believe His won perfect righteousness (2 Corinthians 5:21) so that all who repent and believe could stand before God fully justified. This is God’s plan of salvation which once accepted through faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ our heavenly Father will freely grant eternal life. This is the gospel news regarding the greatest story ever told.
My Prayer for you is that as you read God Word, God will open your eyes to see, your heart to understand the truth about the Lord Jesus Christ who came into the world as our Messian 100% God and 100% Man. The almighty God of the universe humbly came to earth in human flesh to seek and to save the lost. (Matthew 18:11; Luke 19:110; 5:32; Romans 5:8). I pray that you will repent of your sins and receive God’s eternal sovereign gift of eternal life. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Bible Promises from our LORD God
The LORD God is our Creator: Part 1 (Continued)
“Since you were precious in My sight, you have been honored, and I have loved you; therefore, I will give men for you, and people for your life.” (Isaiah 43:4)
“For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made, marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well.” (Psalm 139: 13-14)
“Having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved. In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace.” (Ephesians 1:5-6, 7)
“Know that the LORD, He is God; it is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people and the sheep of His pasture.” (Psalm 100:3)
“Are not tow sparrows sold for a copper coin: And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will. But the very hairs on your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.” (Matthew 10:29-31)
God offers us forgiveness when we admit to Him, we have done wrong. He assures us that He is a “faithful and just and will forgive us” (1 John 1:9). Forgiven and received by Him, you can be open about your brokenness to the God who took your blame on Himself on the cross, all because of His amazing sacrificial love for humankind. Christ our Lord and Savior is the Great High Priest in heaven. His work is accomplished; that is the work of redemption on the cross. He remains on the right hand of the Throne of God as the born-again believer’s Great High Priest and Intercessor. (Hebrews 7:25: 9:24)
Prayer:
Dear Loving Father,
Thank you for taking my sin, blame, and shame away. You possess the resurrection power we all need! Please help me to live for You always! Heavenly Father, thank You for the truth of the Scriptures. Please help me to let obedience to You be who I am. Loving Heavenly Father, please help me to rest in Your provision of righteousness forever.
