Are you making opportunities to obey the Spirit and teach the world about who God is? It’s kind of a big deal if you think about it. If you’ve been saved by God, that means you were rescued from death–plucked from the fiery pit of Hell and turned from a wicked and sinful monster into a saint. But Jesus didn’t sacrifice himself to turn you into a decoration (like the statues you see of dead people). He gave his life so that you could have life, and then he said it’s your turn now! Go into all the world and save some people! Don’t waste the precious gift you’ve been given…spread it around. There’s more than enough to go around. God doesn’t want anybody to die without him. If you’ve found God’s grace don’t hide it, divide it!
If you haven’t been saved, that means you’re still dead in your sins. And you probably already know exactly what I’m talking about. Your own conscience is probably telling you exactly what it is that is keeping you apart from a relationship with your Creator. Today is the day of salvation. Make the choice to leave your sins in the past and to start living for God, and you will find a life more amazing than anything you’ve ever known. It’s not always easy. In fact, Jesus guarantees that you’ll face persecution if you live life his way. But it is so worth it! To actually live in relationship to God and know his presence in your life outweighs all the troubles you could ever face. And we haven’t even gotten to Heaven yet. That’s the icing on the cake of a real relationship with Jesus! Make the decision to find forgiveness and turn your life around and live by the awesome power of the Holy Spirit. You won’t be disappointed!
