"We Have Found the Messiah!"


“We Have Found the Messiah!”

 

 

Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus.  The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah” (that is, the Christ).  And he brought him to Jesus.          John 1:40-42a

 

This is the reason I do these devotions.  To let people know that, I have FOUND the MESSIAH! The ONE, TRUE MESSIAH, who is the KING of KINGS and the LORD of LORDS.  The ONE and ONLY ONE who can FORGIVE and TAKE AWAY the sins of mankind.  The ONLY HOPE for a lost and dying world.  Have YOU found the MESSIAH? 

 

Andrew, the brother to Simon Peter was with John the Baptist when John saw Jesus, and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world.” Two of John’s disciples, one being Andrew, left John and followed Jesus. 

 

The FIRST THING Andrew did was to find his brother, Simon Peter, and tell him, “We have found the Messiah!”  Then Andrew didn’t leave it at that, but he BROUGHT Peter to Jesus.  Have YOU found the ONE and ONLY MESSIAH, the Lord Jesus Christ?  If you have then you should be bringing people to Him, so they too can tell others that, “they have FOUND the MESSIAH!”  This is also one BIG indication that your SALVATION is a HEART THING, and NOT just a MIND THING.  It MUST be a HEART THING!  “For with the HEART a person BELIEVES, resulting in RIGHTEOUSNESS.”  (Rom. 10:10) Andrew didn’t waste any time finding his brother to share the GOOD NEWS, and neither should we. 

 

If you have NOT FOUND the MESSIAH, then you are LOST and headed for a place called Hell, the place of perpetual torment, torture, pain, agony and despair for ALL of ETERNITY.  However, you NOW have the opportunity to change that destination, because I’m here to tell you that, “I have FOUND the MESSIAH,” and He wants me to tell you that He wants to SAVE you from your sins and for you to be rescued from the eternal flames of Hell.  In order for that to happen, you MUST come to Him with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, CONFESSING your sins to Him, and asking Him for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU, and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION and be able to tell others; “I have FOUND the MESSIAH!”  Do it NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and coming SOON!”
