Ask people if they believe in God and many will tell you “Yes, I believe in God.” Ask them if they are saved and many will also say, “Yes”, yet they have no concept of God’s plan of salvation or the sacrifice that Jesus paid to save them. It is not enough to believe in God (the devil believes in God!) and you don’t get to heaven without repenting and confessing that what you truly deserve is hell! Sanctification is an event, not a process. Tell me about God’s plan of salvation.
When a person is saved, they become spiritually born and are joint heirs with Christ. Don’t underestimate the significance of what Jesus Christ did for us! The Son of God emptied Himself of His glory to become a humble man (Philippians 2:6-8) and die in our place. There are ten thousand times ten thousand … and more … reasons to love Jesus and be thankful for His sacrifice!
When Jesus comes to live in your heart, you will know it! You might not remember the exact day nor hour, but you will want to tell the whole world! You will want to share your testimony with others … tell them what Jesus has done for you and how He has changed your life! If you can’t or won’t share your testimony, chances are it is because you don’t have one. No, it isn’t a personal story … because it’s not about YOU, it’s about HIM!
Your salvation should give you a burning desire to tell others about His saving grace so they won’t spend eternity in hell! In fact, God commands us to go and tell -- Mark 16:15 - “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”
You're rich in love and You're slow to anger;
Your name is great and Your heart is kind!
For all Your goodness, I will keep on singing.
Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find.
Bless the Lord, oh my soul! Oh my soul!
Worship His Holy name! Sing like never before,
Oh my soul, I'll worship Your Holy name.
And on that day when my strength is failing;
The end draws near and my time has come,
Still my soul will sing Your praise unending.
Ten thousand years and then forevermore!
Writers: M.Redman and J.Myrin
Psalms 7:17 - “I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.” Sing His praise for 10,000 years! Sing like never before and worship His holy name!
