The scripture for today is one of the words I love in the bible. These are the words that testify about Jesus Christ as the beginning and the end. The alpha and the omega. The way, the truth, the life, the power and everything! Let us read and absorb.
John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was fully God.

6 A man came, sent from God, whose name was John.7 He came as a witness to testify about the light, so that everyone might believe through him. 8 He himself was not the light, but he came to testify about the light. 9 The true light, who gives light to everyone1 was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was created by him, but the world did not recognize him. 11 He came to what was his own, but his own people did not receive him. 12 But to all who have received him – those who believe in his name – he has given the right to become God’s children

We saw his glory – the glory of the one and only, full of grace and truth, who came from the Father. 15 John testified about him and shouted out, “This one was the one about whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is greater than I am, because he existed before me.’”

- 1Tim 6:16 He alone possesses immortality and lives in unapproachable light, whom no human has ever seen or is able to see. To him be honor and eternal power! Amen;
- 1John 4:12 No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God resides in us, and his love is perfected in us;
- Matt 11:27 All things have been handed over to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son decides to reveal him.;
Wow Amen! These scriptures testify about our Lord Jesus Christ as the promised savior and the Holy One who would rescue us. Brothers and Sisters I hope we have welcomed Christ in our lives for the word of God or the bible talks about him. He is the ONLY option and our greatest gift we can get from our father in heaven. May the words speak to us and ignite our vision in the greatness of our Lord Jesus Christ who removed his Godliness and lived as human to save me and to save YOU.
If you have not yet received Jesus as your savior and be part of your life. I want you to say this prayer -
Father in Heaven I thank you for your greatness and your love to us. I thank you for your wisdom and grace. Lord God I am accepting Jesus Christ as your son and our savior.
Lord Jesus Christ, I thank you for your sacrifice on the cross to save me. I BELIEVE in you Lord that you are MY savior and the way to righteousness. Lord Jesus I am accepting you as my savior and my guide towards heaven. Lord, I am asking for your forgiveness for all the sins I have done, I know now that the reason you died is because of ME. I am now asking for your grace to give me the Holy Spirit to guide me in my quest to be righteous. Starting today Lord lead me the way and guide me in my journey with you until the day we meet in person.
Amen.
