Romans 6:11 – Be ALIVE TO GOD, alert to Him, through Jesus Christ our Lord!
When we gave our lives to the Lord, we were given a new clean slate Romans 5:1 says, Therefore being justified.. (just as if I have never sinned!) by faith we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. We need to understand what took place when the Lord Jesus Christ died on the cross. Jesus was…
Jesus says in John 3:8 (NIV) “The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone BORN OF THE SPIRIT” Jesus is saying two very important things here: 1. The work of the Holy Spirit in bringing a person…
If you have given your life to Christ, you have experienced a new birth. When you became a new creation, you were born into a family. Jesus said: John 3:3 Except a man BE BORN AGAIN he cannot see the Kingdom of God. This statement almost seems to have shocked Nicodemus, and so he logically asked…
2 Corinthians 5:17 (NIV) “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” The Living Bible puts it this way: “When someone becomes a Christian he becomes a brand new person inside. He is not the same any more. A new life has begun!” When people…
When you were born into God’s family you didn’t realise or recognise the privileges and the inheritance that are yours, that God is your Father, that Jesus is your Elder Brother and that you are part of the Royal Family of God.

Being born physically into an earthly family is a total miracle! A new person has come to join a family! It is something that is completely beyond human comprehension or description. Being born spiritually into God’s “forever family” is also a total miracle! To see a person recognise that they have received new life from…
We must never limit God. He is able and will deliver you! Psalm 27:3 Yes, though a mighty army marches against me, my heart shall know no fear! I am confident that God will save me. If you had a mighty army marching against you, you would have reason to fear. But as we begin to…
This is a great promise. God knows our situations. He knows the kinds of fears you and I battle with. And He wants to be the one who takes care of us. Matthew 10:29 – 31 Not one sparrow (What do they cost? Two for a penny?) can fall to the ground without your Father knowing it. And…
Fear is different for different people. Some people fear crime and violence. Others fear death. Other people fear financial failure or disaster. Still others fear rejection. Another fear is the loss of a loved one. For these people this fear is very real. Fear can paralyze us. The saying goes: ‘Paralyzed with fear’. But God does not want us to fear. God…
This was one of my own earthly Father’s quotes: ‘It will be worth it all when we see Jesus’ – Pastor Ed Roebert, 17 November 1991 You may be hesitant to let God use you, BUT it will all be worth it when you see Jesus. Perhaps you have been used by God, but now you are…
