"Freedom and Confidence"

“Freedom and Confidence”

In Him and through faith in Him we may approach God with freedom and confidence.    Ephesians 3:12



In years past, and today also, men and women have and are sacrificing for the LIFE, LIBERTY, and the PURSUIT of HAPPINESS for their fellow Americans.  Jesus said: “No one has GREATER LOVE than this, that someone would lay down his life for his friends.”  (John 15:13) And many American soldiers have done that, in order to provide FREEDOM for their FAMILIES and FRIENDS. 



Because God so LOVED the World, He gave His ONLY SON, Jesus, to DIE, for the SINS of ALL MANKIND, and to provide a WAY for MANKIND to be able to approach God, with FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE.  And in Jesus and through FAITH in HIM we have the ability to have FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE to come to God, in PRAYER, as a part of our WORSHIP experience, and to establish a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP, with our CREATOR.  We have the FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE to express our LOVE and DEVOTION to Him, and to offer up to Him intercessory prayer requests, which is PRAYING for OTHERS. 



All of this is made POSSIBLE, because of GOD’S ABUNDANT MERCY, His AMAZING GRACE, and His UNFAILING LOVE, that was exemplified through the SACRIFICE of our LORD JESUS CHRIST, who LAID DOWN His LIFE, so we might have FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE with GOD.  Do you have that FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE with God?



If you have NOT TRULY GIVEN your HEART and LIFE to God, then you do NOT have that FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE, because you are clinging to your sinful lifestyle, and are in BONDAGE to your sins.  In order to have that FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE, you first MUST have a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with God.  And to do that you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in HEAVEN, making intercession for you, before God.  Then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and the FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE to approach GOD with a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with Him, and receive HEAVEN as your ETERNAL HOME.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!
