Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
God does not want to condemn you, He wants to save you, i have had a pretty awful full of sin life aswell. i have basically broken all the ten commandments but when GOD saved me, and i decided to walk with HIM, be dilligent in reading HIs word, and praying, He removed my anger, He helped me with countless sins that i struggled with, and yet i am a work in Progress and when you give ALL YOUR HAVE AND ARE TO CHRIST right now and decide to live for HIM, He will do the very same for you, He will cleanse you of your sins, and wash them all out.
1Jn 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
1Jn 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
JESUS can change you, and HE values you more than you think.
Heaven rejoices when you REPENT (Change your mind), and showing dilligence to follow HIM no matter WHAT.
GOD LOVES YOU
Heaven rejoices when you do this first:
If anyone serves Me!
Joh 12:26 If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there also My servant shall be. If anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.
To serve Jesus is to follow Him, His great example of holiness, purity, and moral fortitude; they both go hand in hand, where serving Jesus constitutes the whole existence and being of the soul!
To serve Jesus, we must use all of our life to minister to Him, in all our thoughts, words and deeds, that should be brought forth in all purity, sincerity and love, where the greatest joy we can muster in our short lives is built upon our service to Him, and receiving the honor of almighty God!
There is nothing more satisfying in this godless world than offering up our whole life to God, by serving and ministering to Jesus, as we follow Him through the good and bad things that will occur throughout our life.
Now some teach that serving Jesus is not the gospel, and if we even try, we are out of the will of God, and taking matters into our own hands, but this couldn’t be farther from the truth!
Many also teach that if you do not belong to the organized church, and serving God through their various ministries, then you are in great sin and disobedience, because they see heart purity and obedience to Jesus as works and unable to be obtained this side of heaven. Where works unto God are good outer works such as serving at the church dinners, or cleaning the church parking lot, and giving tithes and teaching in various ministries.
Rom 14:18 For he who serves Christ in these things is well-pleasing to God, and approved by men.
But lo and behold, not many have any idea what it means to serve and obey these things of God from the heart, where the heart is made pure through the repentance process, now broken and made acceptable to God, cleansed and purged from all evil, guile, hate, envy, and lust, a ready vessel, walking the crucified life unto God in service and honor!
This is what true service to God is, a cleansed and purged mind, set free once and for all from the corrupting influence of sin, now walking in His glorious light, standing strong against the wiles of the devil, where everything you do, think and say is a sweet smelling aroma to God, coming from a heart devoted to Him, walking in newness of life, where the renewing of the mind has taken place, now totally focused on obeying the Lord from a heart made pure through faith!
But with this faithful service comes many hardships and trials promised by Jesus:
Joh 15:19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
Joh 15:20 Remember the word that I said to you; the servant is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they have kept My saying, they will also keep yours.
A true servant knows His master, and obeys all His commands, thus becomes a true friend of Jesus Christ, a bondservant, no greater than Jesus, and will receive persecution and disdain, because Jesus wasn’t send to remove any of our trials for His name sake, but to give us strength to be a strong servant through them all, bold in His name and power, remembering what He and many of His true followers went through to endure to the end and receive their prize of eternal life!
Joh 14:15 If you love Me, keep My commandments.
Joh 15:10 If you keep My commandments, you shall abide in My love, even as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.
Rev 22:14 Blessed are they that DO his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Jesus said “TO DO” but rebellious mankind says “I CANT” Jesus said “FOLLOW ME” mankind says “ITS TOO DIFFICULT” Jesus said “SERVE AND OBEY” mankind says “THIS IS NOT THE GOSPEL, OBEDIENCE ISNT NECESSARY OR A MANDATE AND SERVING CHRIST IS IMPOSSIBLE “!
1Jn 3:24 And he who keeps His commandment dwells in Him, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit which He gave to us.
