Romans 6:11 – Be ALIVE TO GOD, alert to Him, through Jesus Christ our Lord!
Sin is a strong force. Sin is not only bad things that we do, it is also a power that begins to take hold over our lives and ultimately control us. God wants us to experience His power in us to overcome the habit of sin. This results in victory over the power of sin. This is…
Jesus set the example. We need to live our lives in and through Jesus. If we do this we too can confront all aspects of life and have victory. 1 Corinthians 15:57 How we thank God for all of this! It is he who makes us victorious through Jesus Christ our Lord! Romans 8:37 but…
There are TWO IMPORTANT THINGS that we need to do in order for our sins to be placed on Jesus and for us to be rated as righteous by God. 1. WE MUST CONFESS OUR SINS! John 1:9 “If we CONFESS our sins, He is faithful and justto forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from…
HERE IS HOW WE BECOME PART OF GOD’S FAMILY Step 1. ADMIT that YOU HAVE SINNED and that you are therefore not His child. No one is “born” a Christian. This is why Jesus said we must be “born again”. 1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive…

Every one of us, like Adam and Eve, have chosen to sin and disobey God! Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” Romans 3:10-12 “As it is written: “There is none righteous, no, not one; There is none who understands; there is none who seeks after God. They have all…
Notice what Adam and Eve chose! Genesis 3:3-6 “But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die.’” Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. For God knows that in the day you…
If you sense that God’s wave of repentance is beginning to stir in you, don’t resist it. Get alone in some place if possible and as He brings before you the sins you have committed LIST THEM on a sheet of paper. Then CONFESS each sin as a sin to the Lord. Be specific. Ask for…
This is perhaps the most frightening aspect about repentance. You see, you cannot repent whenever YOU want to! It’s like catching a wave. If you launch yourself in front of the wave too soon, the wave washes over you. If you move too late you also miss the wave. Be sure to repent when God’s…
The clear message of the OLD TESTAMENT is “TURN” Deuteronomy 4:29-31 But from there you will seek the Lord your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.
