AMERICA – Jesus Is God’s Gift

Jesus Christ did not come into the world to condemn. Jesus came as a gift, a precious gift desiring to be given to all who will receive Him.

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 that person, and they with me.

Picture a friend standing just outside your door holding a beautifully wrapped large box! Wouldn’t you be eager to invite him in and receive his gift?

Now picture Jesus, desiring to be your best friend, offering you a more beautiful gift, one that will last a lifetime!

Jesus, that friend outside your door, is waiting for you. In fact He’s always there – waiting – waiting to be invited in so that you may receive the blessing of His gift.

Jesus offers you salvation.

The precious gift Jesus offers is His free gift of salvation, and you can receive it right now! “Here I am!” says Christ our savior. He desires to enter your heart right now. Invite Him in.

What a wonderful time – right now, during the month of His birthday celebration – for you to invite the Savior of the world into your life and accept His free gift. Jesus loves you. Jesus is waiting for you to receive Him.

No need to clean yourself up before allowing Him into your heart, He already knows you inside and out. He is eager to help you overcome any aches you’ve suffered through and any mess you are in right now. Simply say:

“Jesus, I need you, please come in.”

Jesus, God’s gift of salvation to us, also offers hope, comfort, peace, love. He is the calming factor when I’m stressed. He can help you as well!

Jesus offers Hope

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Jesus offers Comfort

Corinthians 1:3-4 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.

Jesus offers Peace

John 14:27: Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

Jesus offers Love

Mark 12:28-31 …Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”

Jesus offers Salvation

2 Timothy 3:15 For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Jesus wants a relationship with you right now. There are no catches or good works to do. And don’t be concerned about feeling guilty or broken from complicated circumstances. Jesus loves you anyway. Life on earth isn’t perfect or pure and Jesus understands.

I encourage you right now to open wide your heart and invite Jesus inside.

ARE YOU A FOLLOWER OF JESUS?

If you’re uncertain you’ve ever invited Jesus into your heart – now is the perfect time. Pray this sinner’s prayer found at Gotquestions.com. Only through Jesus Christ can you receive the redemptive hope that He alone offers.

“God, I know that I am a sinner. I know that I deserve the consequences of my sin. However, I am trusting in Jesus Christ as my Savior. I believe that His death and resurrection provided for my forgiveness. I trust in Jesus and Jesus alone as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you Lord, for saving me and forgiving me! Amen!”
