“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28

Are you overwhelmed? Jesus is given an open invitation to everyone to drop those burdens upon him and he will give us rest. This might seem too good to be true, how can Christ take away all our burdens? He is the same one who took on the sins of the world, so we can be free

The first part of the scripture says “Come to Me”, first thing we need to do to receive peace is come to Christ. As God said if you draw near me, I will draw near you (James 4:8). We can’t expect God to fix anything if we are distant from him. Come to God through Jesus Christ in prayer and worship

Second part Jesus says is “All of You”. Jesus didn’t say some of you can be saved he said everyone. Don’t let anyone or anything stop you from building a relationship with God. Don’t let religion or man-made rules dictate your personal relationship with your Lord and Savior.

Often people feel inferior or not worthy to sit at the Lords table. However, this is blasphemy! Jesus laid down his life for everyone, Everyone who calls upon the name of The Lord shall be saved! (Romans 10:13)

The final part is Jesus says “I will give you rest”. The original Greek word for Rest is “Katapausis” meaning a “calming” or “resting place”. God knows our burdens and wants to give us a “resting place” a “calm from the storm”. This can only be found through Jesus Christ, who is the “Prince of Peace” and can calm every storm in Jesus Name Amen

Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies Proverbs 31:10

Today we celebrate the birth of my beautiful wife, Heidi. The scripture asks who can find a virtuous wife? I have found a virtuous woman and feel blessed to have her as my wife and best friend. Together we make a great team and share the same core values. Our family means everything to us, and Heidi keeps us all together

The heart of her husband trusts in her, And he will have no lack of gain. Proverbs 31:11

My heart fully trust in Heidi, I know she will always have my back and be there for me. We have been together now for 19 years. We have basically grown up together, been through graduating college, starting our careers, building a house, raising children. We have done and accomplished so much together I lack nothing.

She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life. Proverbs 31:12

Heidi brings me good ever since we met. Without her my life would be empty and incomplete. And the best is still yet to come! God has blessed us with a wonderful family and I look forward to our future of milestones and accomplishments.

Yes, every marriage hits bumps in the road but as God says “Love never fails”. When you build your family on “The Rock” you will always have a solid foundation for the storms.

So today we celebrate the birth of Heidi ,my virtuous wife, the love of my life, and best friend! Love you!

For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39

What can separate you from the love of God? When Jesus said, “It is Finished” at the cross he created a new covenant that can never be separated from us. Death was defeated, Jesus conquered the grave!

Satan wants to separate you from God, he’s going to put things in your life to become stumbling blocks. Sometimes those stumbling blocks can seem insurmountable. But we must remember that nothing can separate from the love God has given us through his Son Jesus Christ. There is nothing Satan can do to you that wasn’t defeated at the cross.

These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world, you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

Jesus said in this world you will have problems but have peace knowing that he has overcome the world! There is nothing that can’t be overcome including death. This may seem hard to understand, but when you understand Gods redemption plan for us, it makes perfect sense.

So whatever you’re going through today, have peace knowing nothing, in this world can separate you from the glory and love of God through Jesus Christ. You are an overcomer in Jesus Name Amen

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies, and everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die. Do you believe this?” John 11:25-26

Do you believe this? Millions of people around the world just celebrated Easter, the resurrection of Christ. But how many of those people truly believe in the resurrection? How many of those people truly believe Jesus defeated sin and death on the hill at Calvary?

Jesus spoke these words right before he resurrected Lazarus from the dead. With the powerful words “Lazarus come forth” the breath of God was put back into Lazarus who was dead for four days. The same power of God that spoke the Heavens and Earth into existence, can make the dead come back to life

Jesus said “ I AM the resurrection” question is do you want eternal life? Or have you fallen for the same deceit Satan has spoken since the beginning, “You surely won’t die”. Don’t believe the lies of Satan, there is no walking dead. Dust you were formed from and dust you will return (Genesis 3:19)

However, there is a living God, who will give you eternal life. Everyone who believes in Christ will never die, do you believe this? Do you understand what was accomplished for you at the cross? Accept Christ as your Lord and Savior, he is the resurrection in Jesus name Amen

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8

Do you need a reason to feel thankful today? Look no further than the love God demonstrated to us on the cross. Even though we were wretched sinners, Christ still died for us. Even though it was our lawlessness that put Christ on the cross, he still laid down his life for us. Even though Jesus has all power and authority over Heaven and Earth, he still died for us, because God loves us.

Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. Romans 5:9

Still not feeling thankful? How about the next scripture, Christ not only dies for us sinners, but we are now justified by his blood. By the blood of Christ, you are now redeemed. No power or evil is greater than the blood of Christ. The blood that was flowing from the cross, by sinful men, has the power to justify us and set us free!

And because of all of us, because of the love God demonstrated through his Son, we are saved by the wrath of God. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is life through Jesus Christ ( Romans 6:23) Gods love and gift has delivered us from the wrath of death.

Is there any greater love, than the love of God demonstrated through Jesus Christ? Rejoice and be glad for you are redeemed in Jesus Name Amen

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. John 3:16

Why did the crucifixion have to happen? Because God so loved the world! Often people try to portray God, our Father, as angry vengeful God. But our Heavenly Father loves you enough, to send his only Son to die for your sins. As Jesus said there is no greater love, than to lay down your life for one’s friends (John 15:13)

Whoever believes in him (Jesus Christ) shall not perish but have eternal life. No matter what your going through, rejoice knowing that your faith in Christ will grant you eternal life. Many will try to overcomplicate this or even downplay it. But through Christ you are redeemed!

Gods only “begotten” Son, the original Greek word for “begotten” is “monogenes” The word “monogenes” means “One of a kind pertaining to a relationship” ,“unique”, “one and only”

There is only one Messiah, Son of God, his name is Yeshua (Jesus). This is no other hence the wording “Begotten” or “Monogenes”. Jesus is the only one who could have laid down his life and saved the world. Nobody else could have accomplished what he did for us already. And nobody else can accomplish what he can still do for you today!

“For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. John 3:17

God the Father didn’t send Jesus Christ into the world to condemn it but to save it. Through the love of Christ, we can all be redeemed and inherit eternal life. It’s important to understand this message and understand who Christ is for all of us in Jesus Name Amen
