Wed. Feb. 29, 2012 Jesus Still Heals


When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, asking for help. "Lord" he said, "my servant lies at home paralyzed and in terrible suffering." Jesus said to him, "I will go and heal him."

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

Good Salvation Wednesday Morning, my dear brothers and sisters. It is raining here at the Southern location of the North Pole on this leap day, a bonus day given to us by our Lord Jesus. Oh, yes, that is correct, every day we get to spend on the green side of the grass is a bonus day given to us by our Lord Jesus. Thank You, Jesus, for another day on earth. Please pray today for Salvation through Jesus and pray that God uses you to help others to become saved.

February 29, 2012 Jesus still heals! Matthew 8:5 - When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, asking for help. 6 "Lord" he said, "my servant lies at home paralyzed and in terrible suffering." 7 Jesus said to him, "I will go and heal him." (NIV)

Hebrews 13:8 - Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. (NIV)

I want to ask you this today, do you really think anything more about Salvation when we have Salvation Wednesday each week? I started this online years and years ago, sort of a mid-week thing to take the place of the missing Wednesday Night church services and prayer meetings. While some churches still have those services, a lot of churches do not. Salvation is the most important reason that I step out for Jesus, it is the Good News we are to spread. Today I want to talk to you about Salvation. First are you saved? How dare you ask me if I am saved, some of you might say! Of course I am saved!! So why do I ask all of you today if you are saved? I gave you that answer the other day when I told you that I love you very much. If I did not love you, I would not care if you have been saved, born again. If Jesus did not love us, all of us, He would not have died for us on the cross. If God our Father did not love us, He would not have sent Jesus, His one and only begotten Son to died for us so that we might live.

John 3:16 - "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. (NIV)
So again I ask you, are you saved? Do you understand what it means to be saved? If you are not sure, or you have questions please, please, either call me, 717 991 0754 (my personal cell phone number) or email me. One time I asked my pastor that question, I said "Pastor, do you know Jesus?" "Are you saved?" At first he was taken back, sort of upset, but later on even preached on the fact that I cared enough to ask him. But, wait, this is not about me, it is about all of you and your salvation. If you are saved, praise the Lord, and then my question to you is this. Do you have enough guts, no let me change that word, do you have enough love for others to just plain ask them, ARE YOU SAVED? Then you need to even go farther, and maybe ask if they even know what it means to be saved. Some people think Heaven just happens!! WRONG!!

I want you to look around and open your eyes and see what is going on in the world. Jesus said there would be wars and rumors of wars and we were not to be alarmed for these things would happen. He talked about people being hungry and storms and earthquakes.

But folks, I think we have gone way past things that just upset God, the murder of the unborn, men wanting to marry men and women wanting to marry women and some churches even saying it is ok. Folks, ask your children, be sure they know Jesus, talk to them about being saved. Talk to your friends, pray about it, be bold, don't hold back... Today is Salvation Wednesday on this line, and I am not asking you to send this message to ten people and back to me to be blessed, what I am asking is first for you to address yourself and be sure you are indeed saved. Do you love Jesus? Have you confessed to Him that You love Him? Do you now work for Him? After you have done that I ask that you just ask one person today, and a couple this week, are you saved? Ladies, maybe when you are in the seat at your hair dresser. Maybe sitting in a waiting room at the doctor's office. On the work place, at break time, don't be afraid to ask. What if no one cared enough about you to tell you about Jesus... How about it... Today is salvation Wednesday, pray for salvation for someone and then put feet on those prayers and get out and get someone to the feet of Jesus. Remember you cannot save them, but you can be the middle person for God... Someone please say amen...

Dear Father in Heaven, Thank You for loving me enough to send Jesus to die for me, Dear Jesus, thanks for loving me enough to die for me to save me from my sins... Forgive me of my sins, dear Lord. And now, Lord, help me love others enough to care for them to be sure they are saved... Help me share the biggest blessing You have given me, Salvation through Jesus. Help me share it. In Jesus' name, help me share it... Amen.

Now go forth and remember it is Salvation Wednesday, try to bring someone to the feet of Jesus, maybe just maybe it will be your own self... Remember if you have questions, call... I love ya, Pastor Dan.
