HAVE YOU DONE ANYTHING WRONG?

JEREMIAH 2: 35

"You say, I have done nothing wrong. Surely God is not angry with me. God Says, Now I will punish you severely because you claim you have not sinned!"

Are you a sinner? Have you done anything wrong in God's eyes? How many times have you had someone tell you, "I am a good person". How many times have non believer's asked, why do bad things happen to "Good People"? The One Truth Today is that no one is good, no one is without sin! Many people think that they have done nothing wrong in God's sight. Many believe that God is not angry with them and they have done nothing that they need to be punished for. That is the precise reason that God will punish you severely, because you claim that you have not sinned! HAVE YOU DONE ANYTHING WRONG?

No one is Good, no not one! You had better acknowledge that you are a sinner and that you have done many things that are wrong. You are a sinner and you need a Savior. That lie, that you have not sinned, even to yourself, will separate you from God. If you are without sin then the Lord will allow you to throw the first stone at another sinner. There was no one left then and there is no one living now that can condemn others. No one can say I have done nothing wrong, I have never sinned! In Matthew, Mark and Luke we read that no one is Good, but one, and that is God! In Romans we learn that all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God.
HAVE YOU DONE ANYTHING WRONG?

The important truth to grasp here is that we are all sinners and none of us are good, or God!
If you say you have done nothing wrong you deserve to be punished severely by God. If you say you have never sinned you are equating yourself to God. That will make God angry! There is a way to have all of your sin washed away. Repent and confess to the Lord all of your sins and ask for His Forgiveness and Mercy! Your sins will be covered by the blood of Jesus Christ the Lord God. God will tell you to go and sin no more. God wants us to turn around from our sinful ways and make a straight path to His Kingdom. That is the "Good News", for all people.
HAVE YOU DONE ANYTHING WRONG?

GOD KNOWS YOU!

JEREMIAH 1: 5

"I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb! Before you were born
I set you apart."

Have you ever felt like nobody really knows you? Have you ever felt isolated and alienated from your family and friends? Do you think that anybody really understands you and what you truly think and believe? How many people have come and gone in your life without really knowing or understanding you? How many "friends" have you had that are now just a memory? Has there been anything in your life that is stable and constant? Our One Truth Today can remind you of something you can always rely and depend on! Before you were born God set you apart! GOD KNOWS YOU! God knew you before you were formed in your mother's womb!

In case you failed to realize it, God knew you spiritually, before you became a physical reality in your mother's womb. God knew you before the moment of your conception! God knew us from the beginning of time. Our spiritual component existed before our physical earthly flesh was conceived and formed. GOD KNOWS YOU as a separate and unique individual. So much for the pro abortionists who insist they are only removing a blob of tissue from the mother's womb. That blob of tissue has a spirit and is an individual human being, fighting for his life!
God knows the truth, that abortionists take a life, one that what was know from the beginning of time and had been set apart by the Lord. What do you think the Lord's reaction will be to all those involved in interrupting His Will? Thou shalt not kill, especially those that can not defend themselves.

As with any sin, if you confess it to the Lord, and ask for forgiveness, you can obtain mercy and by Saved. If you have been connected to an abortion in any way, Repent, Confess your sin, ask for Forgiveness, beg for Mercy and Salvation. Do it right now before it is too late! If we ask sincerely for forgiveness of our sins, the Lord is faithful to forgive us. If you do not confess your sins, there will be consequences during your life here on earth and in the time to come.
You will be rejecting the free gift of life and forgiveness that the Lord offers to all people. You will have separated yourself from Him. GOD KNOWS YOU, He knows you are a sinner and He is ready to forgive you and Save you, if you let Him. After all God knew you before He formed you in your mother's womb. Before you were born He set you apart. Come to the Lord Now!

WHO MADE THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH?

ISAIAH 66: 2

"My hands have made both heaven and earth; they and everything in them are mine. I, the Lord, have spoken!"

Men have been asking the same question since the beginning of time. Who made the earth and who made the heavens? Little children as well as intellectuals and scientists have sought the answer to this question. Man has proposed so many theories, all that have been proven wrong over time. Have you ever wondered and asked the question, how did we get here and who made us? There is only one correct answer and it is found in our One Truth Today! God spoke through His Prophet and told us the Truth. "My hands have made both heaven and earth' they and every thing in them are mine". The Lord has spoken!

One thing is for certain, no man or collection of men could ever bring anything, let alone the heavens or the earth into existence. A power much greater then ourselves is responsible for our existence. There are a number of abandoned and ridiculous ideas that have been put forth over the centuries, none of which has even a grain of truth. All of them require more "faith and belief", then the Word of God and His Truth. The Lord has said, "heaven is my throne and the earth is my footstool". Compared to God what kind of house can a man build? Man can not create anything from nothing! We can not even speak forth dirt! All of mans theories have one thing in common, they exclude God as the Creator of the Universe. Humanism, as with all of man's religions have one thing in common. They all die and pass away. God remains eternal!

If your little child asks you, who made the heavens and the earth, what will you tell them? Are you going to acknowledge the God that made you and the Universe, or are you going to take the position of the humanists and exclude God? Are you going to condemn your children to death and damnation forever, in favor of another ridiculous and unbelievable theory of man? If you choose to reject God and His Word, the results are predictable, but do you have the right to make your children suffer along with you. Why is it that rebellious men will entertain any form of outrageous theory, such as the "big bang", instead of the Truth? WHO MADE THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH? God tells us He spoke them into existence and everything belongs to him. That includes you!

WE RELY ON JESUS CHRIST!

PHILIPPIANS 3: 3

"WE RELY ON WHAT JESUS CHRIST HAS DONE FOR US! We put no confidence
in human effort."

When the chips are down, and the rubber meets the road, who do you rely on? Do you rely on
yourself and what you are capable of doing? Do you rely on your parents or your family and friends? Do you rely on the government of some authority figure? When you need help in a critical matter, even one involving life or death, who do you rely on? The One Truth Today has the correct answer for all believer's. WE RELY ON WHAT JESUS CHRIST HAS DONE FOR US! You can put no confidence in human efforts! Human effort will fail in the end, every single time! If you want to be Saved from any dilemma, or find the answer to any question you may have, remember what Jesus Christ has all ready done for you. Only Jesus Saves!

If you are depending on anything in the flesh to come to your rescue, you are in for a bitter disappointment. Human effort is incapable of solving the human condition. There is no outward privilege , or external appearance, or physical advantage that will allow us to depend
on ourselves or any other human being. Your mommy or daddy can not Save you, even if you cry out to them! Our flesh, like our lives, is fleeting and deteriorating and in the end there is one thing that happens to us all, inevitable death! It does not matter what you think or believe
the truth is you can not save yourself and no human can save you. WE RELY ON JESUS CHRIST!

As Christians, we worship Jesus Christ the Lord God in Spirit. It is by the Grace and Mercy of the Lord that we will be Saved. We need to exult and Glorify the God who Loves us and will Save us! We can put no pride in ourselves or any other human effort. If you want to rejoice, then Rejoice in the Lord and His plan to Save you and give you new and eternal life.
You can rely on the Promises of God. You can have confidence in the Good News of Jesus Christ! He has all ready paid the price and His blood is the Sacrifice for our lives. Can you say, WE RELY ON WHAT JESUS CHRIST HAS DONE FOR US? Put no confidence in human efforts for they fail every time. Who do we rely on, Jesus Christ the Lord God!

GOD IS WITH US!

MATTHEW 1: 23

"Look the Virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a Son, and they will call Him Immanuel , which means GOD IS WITH US!"

The most important statement ever made. GOD IS WITH US! The God who made the Universe and everything in it came to earth in a human body, as a child. Jesus Christ the Lord God became flesh and dwelt among us. He was the child of a Virgin and the Holy Spirit. He was given the name Immanuel, which means, GOD IS WITH US! If you can grasp hold of and believe the awesome power of our One Truth Today you will be Saved. The God of the Universe will come into your heart and dwell with you. The Holy Spirit will guide you and lead you in a path of righteousness. We may never completely understand the plan of God but we do know that Jesus Christ was sent to the earth to Save us from our sin and give us new and eternal life. The most wonderful thing of all is that GOD IS WITH US!

Have you grasped the importance of the One Truth Today? God not only did appear here on earth in the body of a child. Jesus Christ the Lord God is here with you right now! Not only that but He has promised never to leave or forsake His children and believer's! The Lord will be with you and in you and beside you throughout the remainder of your life here on earth. Then He will take you into heaven to be with Him eternally upon your passing. God will Save us from death and give us new and eternal life. It is so much to grasp and understand and it is awesome. It requires faith to believe in Him and His promises and to accept the Good News!

Mary was overcome by the Holy Spirit and conceived a Son, even though she was a Virgin. This is just as the prophecies had foretold and were now fulfilled. One of the names that they called Him was Immanuel, which means that GOD IS WITH US! Jesus Christ embodied that fact and all of this was well documented and witnessed. Can you imagine holding the God of the Universe in your arms, probably no more than you can imagine that Jesus Christ is here with you right now, close at hand. We will all worship the Lord of the Universe and we should all seek Him and believe on Him. The only gift you can give to God is your eternal soul. You do not even have to go anywhere, because GOD IS WITH US!

GIVE ME THE RIGHT WORDS!

EPHESIANS 6: 19

"Pray for me. Ask God to GIVE ME THE RIGHT WORDS so I can boldly explain God's mysterious plan, that the Good News is for Jews and Gentiles alike."

The One Truth Today is a prayer that all of us have made at one time in our lives. GIVE ME THE RIGHT WORDS! Many are afraid to share the Good News and the plan of God for fear that they will be inadequate in doing so. They can feel frustrated in their ability to explain the mysterious plan of God boldly. Jesus Saves, is a simple concept but can be explained in a variety of ways and the results will vary with the message. It may seem complicated to us as we try to enlighten one that we care about. Stop for a moment and remember that the Holy Spirit is the one who will work on the hearts of those who will listen. As believer's we have a heart for others and we want to share the Mercy, Love and Salvation of our Lord. We need to pray the same prayer today, GOD, GIVE ME THE RIGHT WORDS!

God has the power over life and death for every individual and He has asked that we go into all the world and share His Gospel! We yearn for the ones that we love to find the Truth and come to a knowledge of Jesus Christ the Lord God! We want to share eternal life in Heaven with the ones that we love, so the stakes are high. May the Lord hear our prayer so that He may GIVE ME THE RIGHT WORDS, to explain boldly the Good News for all people! We must have the freedom to utter and proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We have solved the mystery of life and death and that is why we believe. We know the Lord had a plan from the beginning to Save us from our sins. All we have to do is believe in Him and accept Him into our hearts and lives!

If you are intimidated or frightened to share the Gospel, call upon the Holy Spirit to lead you and guide you and to GIVE ME THE RIGHT WORDS! The plan is for all people, Jews, Gentiles and everyone. Sometimes the simplest explanation from the least educated person can be more powerful than Evangelistic fervor. If you are yoked with the Lord, no burden is to heavy and no task impossible to accomplish. Remember it is the Spirit of the Lord that moves on the hearts and minds of others. You know that plan and you know the outcome. Share it with those you love and care about and in fact with all the world. You can boldly explain the plan of God that encompasses the Good News if you ask the Lord to GIVE ME THE RIGHT WORDS!

BE PERSISTENT IN YOUR PRAYERS!

EPHESIANS 6: 18

"Pray in the spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and
BE PERSISTENT IN YOUR PRAYERS!"

How often do you pray to the Lord? How often should we pray to the Lord? Do you pray to the Lord at all times? Do you pray to the Lord on every occasion? In short are you PERSISTENT IN YOUR PRAYERS? The One Truth Today has the correct answer to the above questions, read it again. First of all, we need to pray in the Spirit at All Times. We need to pray in the Spirit on Every occasion. Not just some times, or when it is convenient or when we feel like it, we need to BE PERSISTENT IN OUR PRAYERS, at all times. Now we understand why we are admonished to Stay Alert. Saying it another way, we are to pray without ceasing! Make it a habit to pray for everything and every time. There is great power in Persistent Prayer in the Spirit.

Praying is talking to and telling your Father in Heaven the things that are on your heart at that moment. There should be no end to the dialogue between you and your Lord. God answers our every prayer and many times we have not because we ask not. Keep on talking, keep on telling and keep on asking. Like any habit it becomes stronger with repetition and you will build a muscle of persistent praying. We should pray without hesitation and as a way of life.
BE PERSISTENT IN YOUR PRAYERS!

Ask God for His blessing and His leading in your life. Always acknowledge at the end of every prayer that your request is "IF GOD IS WILLING". Be persistent and do not be afraid to ask for the same thing on a number of occasions. The answer can be yes, no or be patient, but there will be an answer. God knows the best plan for our lives and we do not. Even though we may not know the plan, we know that God has a Good Plan for our eternal lives. Pray in the spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert, and BE PERSISTENT IN YOUR PRAYERS!
