Believe in Jesus!

Scripture

John 3

14 And as Moses lifted up the bronze snake on a pole in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15 so that everyone who believes in him will have eternal life.

16 “For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. 17 God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.
36 And anyone who believes in God’s Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn’t obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God’s angry judgment.”

Observation

Today I will go and talk to people at Mission Tampa and almost 99% of them will not understand the Gospel message even though it has been repeated over and over again to them. I pray that today someone will understand the Gospel and they will be saved. Almost all of them are trusting in their good works to get into Heaven and only talk about Jesus after they have shared about getting to Heaven by being good. It is truly amazing, but also it is very sad.

Salvation is found in a relationship with Jesus Christ. A person must put their faith and their trust in Him for their salvation. It is not Jesus plus good works or good works plus Jesus. No, a person must clearly understand that salvation comes when they believe in Jesus Christ and they trust in what He did for them on the cross. There is no other way to be saved. Have you put your faith in Jesus Christ? Are your sins forgiven? Is He your Savior?

Application

I will share these verses with the people at Mission Tampa and I will pray for their salvation.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You that Roderick came to church yesterday and he put his faith and his trust in Jesus to save him. Thank You for giving me the opportunity to talk to him about his relationship to You. I pray that others at Mission Tampa will be saved today. Open their eyes so they can understand the Gospel. I pray for their salvation. I pray that You do a mighty work in their lives today. You are Mighty. Nothing is too hard for You.
