Abundant Life in Jesus Christ

The God we serve is Mighty and Holy in all His ways. He is the Creator of the whole universe. He created the whole universe with everything in it and under it in six days and the seventh day, He rested. I want you to understand that there is no problem in your life that God cannot fix. He has divine wisdom, dominion and power to deliver those who serve Him well from all their troubles and bondages. He is the God who anointed His Son Jesus Christ with the Holy Spirit and power. I urge you to pursue Him with all your being. Your decision to serve God will make the whole world of difference between Heaven and Hell. It will make the difference between prosperity and lack. Pursue God even when things in your life don’t make sense. Pursue God in everything you do, for those who believe and seek Him will find Him, and those who find Him shall be set free. Pursue God when you are in the valley and all things around about you seem bleak. Follow Him even if you don’t feel His presence and don’t know how you are going to make it to the next day. The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. And He is not served by human hands, as if He needed anything, because He himself gives all men life and breath and everything else. From one man He made every nation of men that they should inhabit the whole earth; and He determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. God did this so that men would seek Him and perhaps reach out for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us. For in Him we live and move and have our being. As some of your own poets have said, “We are His offspring.” (Acts 17:24-28)

God knows where you are in life and to be specific, He knows your inner thoughts, your location, your pains, needs and your desires. God is waiting for you to take the first step of inviting Him into your heart and submitting everything to the Holy Spirit and allowing God’s will to be your will; and then watch how God will transform your life for His purpose and glory. The Bible says, “Indeed, the very hairs on your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.” If our God will take care of the sparrow, I know without any shadow of doubt that He will take care of us. The God we serve was the one who delivered Daniel from the Lion’s den. He was the one who parted the River Jordan for the Israelites to cross over. He was the one who brought down the walls of the city of Jericho by His mighty power. He was the same God who delivered Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego from the blazing furnace. He is the God who placed His favor over Esther in the book of Esther to become a queen in a foreign land. He is the same God we serve today and He is still powerful and doing miracles in the lives of believers. He is all sovereign, powerful, and mighty. He is the King of Kings; He is the Lord of Lords.

Our Bible tells us that He is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, Christ that liveth, and was dead; and behold, He is alive for evermore Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. He holds the seven stars in His right hand, He who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks. He is the one who has the sharp sword with two edges, He is the Son of God, who has His eyes like unto a flame of fire, and His feet are like fine brass. He is He that has the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars. He that is Holy, He that is true, He that has the key of David, He that openeth and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth. He is the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God. He is the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. No one is like Him. He is the peace of the world; He is the strength in time like this. He is all mighty; He is all-powerful, He is the provider, He is all in all. He is still the same as He was in the days of old. He still sits on the Heavenly throne and rules the whole universe. He is my Master, Redeemer, Provider, Protector, Healer, Lawyer, the captain of my soul, Savior, and He is the Lord – the great I AM. He is bigger than all our problems. He is able to solve all our problems according to His power, glory and mercy for His purpose in this world. Isaiah 42:5 declares, “ ….. He who created the heavens and stretched them out, who spread out the earth and all that comes out of it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it.” This is the God we serve. He is worthy to receive our praise and worship. He has the power to deliver us from the bottomless pit. His arms are long enough to reach out and pull us out from whatever situation we are in. Today is the day to choose to believe God or affirm your faith in Him for your miracles and blessings. Do not allow this day to pass by without making a choice to become an unyielding believer. I marveled at His mighty works on earth and great things in the heavens above. King David declares in the book of Psalm.

O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens. From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise because of your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger. When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him? You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor. You made him ruler over the works of your hands; you put everything under his feet: all flocks and herds, and the beasts of the field, the birds of the air and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas. O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! (Psalm 8:1-9)

This is the God we serve, He is the good God and His Son Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world. The Bible says in John 14:6-7, “Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.’” Jesus is the only way to His Father. Jesus was the one who died on the cross and shed His precious blood to pay for our sins. “To Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel” (Hebrews 12:24). He was the one who rose up from the grave on the third day and ascended into Heaven. He is sitting at the right hand of God the Father interceding on our behalf. For this reason man can boldly petition the mercy throne of God for His mercy and grace upon us through His Son.

It is a great joy to be in the body of Christ at this present time. It is written in the book of 1Corinthians 1:9, “God, who has called you into fellowship with His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful.” God’s promises to you as a believer will surely come to pass in your life. His promises will never fail and His power endures forever. For I know that our God will never fail us, because the Bible says, “I the LORD do not change. So you, O descendants of Jacob, are not destroyed” (Malachi 3:6). Also it is important to know that in the book of James 1:17 recorded these words, “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the Heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.”
