Veterans Day 2010 Salvation Week (Day 2)

"Greater Love has no one thnt this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

"I am the way and the truth and the life, no one comes to The Father except through me."

Thank You Jesus, and Thanks be to God for our military and our veterans... Happy Veterans Day 2010, my dear brothers and sisters. While most of us think of veterans these days as old men and a few older women from WW2 days, while the truth is, that we have many, many veterans who are just 18 and 19 years old and some of them wounded for life, while others came back from war covered with our flag. So today and I did not lay it out like this, only God can plan like this, but today as we are in day four of Salvation week, the day we find Jesus dying on the cross for our personal freedom, we find it to be veterans day here in America. So again I say, Thank You, Jesus, for dying for me and others, and thank you, veterans, for being willing to lay down your lives to keep America Free. Job well done, ladies and gentlemen, job well done... And they keep marching on.

Please pray this way today, along with your other prayers... Pray for salvation, those coming to Christ today..Also pray for our current military as you remember we are indeed a nation at war, at war times two. Pray also for our veterans and remember please those living in veterans' hospitals nationwide.

Salvation Week (Day 4):

John 14:6 -"I am the way and the truth and the life, no one comes to The Father except through me."

John 15:13 - "Greater Love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

Revelation 3:20 - "Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me."

Romans 5:8 - But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

John 1:12 - "Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God."

Romans 10:9/10 - "That if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and you believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." (All scriptures NIV)

Brothers and sisters, are you ready for today, maybe to come to Christ for the first time, or to renew because you have slipped back, or maybe to come back because you have walked away over the years? We have looked so far this week and found we are all sinners and in need of being saved, we have found that there is a wage for sin and that is death, but the love of Christ, if we accept it, will give us eternal life with Jesus. Today we go to the cross and ask Jesus into our lives... and tomorrow we find out why we must work for Him.

Let's review the scriptures that have been pointed out to me today. John 14:6, which is one of my most loved scriptures, tells us point blank there is but one way to heaven and that is by and with Jesus as He went to the cross for us. It also points out to me that if we want to get a prayer to heaven for God The Father to work at, we need to put them also through Jesus. Let's go over it again.

John 14:6 - "I am the way and the truth and the life, no one comes to The Father except through me."

Please note that last part... "NO ONE COMES TO THE FATHER EXCEPT THROUGH ME." And this in the world of Jesus, Himself.

John 15:13 - "Greater Love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

Now brothers and sisters, after Jesus was born here on earth to a virgin mother and grew up and then preached and taught us how to live, He indeed laid down His very own life for us. He was wiped, beaten, spit-on, and nailed to a cross, and He did it for us. He did it for You and He did it for Me. So now I am going to ask you, are you ready to take Jesus into Your heart for the first time or to renew with Him? Please, today I ask you to share this message with others. I don't ask that very often, but today it is so important. Let's receive Christ now, or renew now, or move tighter with Him now. But first I want to remind you, this must be done in faith, faith in Christ Jesus.

First we need to admit we need Jesus in our lives. Why, because we are sinners, and the Bible told us that, we are all sinners. So right now, go to The Father and confess your sins to Him, through Jesus. Here is a helper prayer if you want to follow my lead...

Dear Father in Heaven, I confess today that I am indeed a sinner who needs the blood of Jesus, that still flows from Calvary to clean me. So wash me white today, Lord, clean my closet... In the name of Jesus I ask this... Amen.

Second, we need to repent of our sins, which means to turn and walk away. So ask God to help you turn and walk away from sin. You can follow my lead or pray on your own...

Dear Father in Heaven, I can hear the words of John the Baptist and those of Jesus telling me to repent for the Kingdom of heaven, the Kingdom of God is near. I cannot do this alone, nor do I want to, I want to hold onto You Jesus, I want You to turn me around. So help me, Lord. I pray in Jesus name... Amen.

Now here we go walking in faith... We need to believe this, we need to believe in Jesus that He did die and was raised from the dead. I believe it, folks, and I pray you do also. Have faith, my dear brothers and sisters, as we do serve a SAVIOR WHO IS ALIVE AND WELL... Amen.

Now let's go to prayer and ask Him into our lives...

Dear Father in Heaven, please send the Holy Spirit into my heart, send Jesus into my heart, I want to be saved right now. So, Lord, please come in and save me now. I want to be born again, right now. Come in Jesus, please come in. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.

Here is some assurance for you...

Romans 10:13 - "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

Ephesians 2:8/9 - "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God not by works, so that no one can boast."

You cannot work your way into heaven, but you need to work for God once you are all saved, so tomorrow we talk about what we must do. I want you to note from Romans 10:13: It does not make a difference how bad your past was, it might to man, but God will forgive you of all those sins. It tells us everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. It does not say just some, it tells me all. Meaning to me, that if you and I called on Him today, WE ARE INDEED SAVED. WE ARE BORN AGAIN, WASHED IN THE BLOOD, SINNERS SAVED BY GRACE... can someone shout a big PRAISE YOU JESUS... thanks for dying for us.

Go forth with a smile on your face, and maybe singing today, for indeed you are a new person or a renewed person... So let's jump at it. A brand new day it is; it is the very first day of the rest of you life... God is good and this is the day that He made...

This is the day, this is the day that the Lord has made, that the Lord has made. We will rejoice, we will rejoice and be glad in it, and be glad in it. This is the day that the Lord has made, We will rejoice and be glad in it. This is the day, this is the day that the Lord has made.

This is the day, this is the day that the Lord has made, that the Lord has made. We will rejoice, we will rejoice and be glad in it, and be glad in it. This is the day that the Lord has made, We will rejoice and be glad in it. This is the day, this is the day that the Lord has made.
