Jesus is the
LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS
Jer
23:6
6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel
shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD
OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
Jer
33:16
16 In those days shall Judah be saved, and
Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be
called, The Lord our righteousness.
Matt
5:6
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst
after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Matt
5:10
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for
righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Matt
5:10
20 For I say unto you, That except your
righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye
shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Matt
6:33
But
seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things
shall be added unto you.
Luke
1:74-75
74 That he would grant unto us, that we being
delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all
the days of our life.
John
16:8-12
8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world
of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father,
and ye see me no more;
11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world
is judged.
Acts
17:31
31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which
he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained;
whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from
the dead.
Rom
1:17
17 For therein is the righteousness of God
revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
Rom
3:21-26
21 But now the righteousness of God without the
law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith
of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no
difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the
glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the
redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation
through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of
sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteo
Rom
4:3-8
3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed
God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.
4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not
reckoned of grace, but of debt.
5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on
him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness
of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
7 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are
forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not
impute sin.
Rom
4:9-13
9 Cometh this blessedness then upon the
circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was
reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.
10 How was it then reckoned? when he was in
circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.
11 And he received the sign of circumcision, a
seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised:
that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not
circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:
12 And the father of circumcision to them who are
not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of
our father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised.
13 For the promise, that he should be the heir of
the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the
righteousness of faith.
Rom
4:16-22
16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by
grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only
which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is
the father of us all,
17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of
many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead,
and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he
might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So
shall thy seed be.
19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not
his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the
deadness of Sara's womb:
20 He staggered not at the promise of God through
unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;
21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had
promised, he was able also to perform.
22 And therefore it was imputed to him for
righteousness.
Rom
5:17-21
17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by
one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of
righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment
came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free
gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made
sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence
might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so
might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our
Lord.
Rom
6:13-23
13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of
unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are
alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for
ye are not under the law, but under grace.
15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not
under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves
servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto
death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants
of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was
delivered you.
18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the
servants of righteousness.
19 I speak after the manner of men because of the
infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to
uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members
servants to righteousness unto holiness.
20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were
free from righteousness.
21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof
ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22 But now being made free from sin, and become
servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting
life.
23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of
God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Rom
8:4-11
4 That the righteousness of the law might be
fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the
things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the
Spirit.
6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be
spiritually minded is life and peace.
7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God:
for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot
please God.
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit,
if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the
Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead
because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus
from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also
quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
Rom
10:4-13
4 For Christ is the end of the law for
righteousness to every one that believeth.
5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is
of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.
6 But the righteousness which is of faith
speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven?
(that is, to bring Christ down from above:)
7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is,
to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even
in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the
Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the
dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto
righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on
him shall not be ashamed.
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and
the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the
Lord shall be saved.
Rom
14:17
17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink;
but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
1
Cor 1:30
30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God
is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
2
Cor 5:21
21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew
no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
2
Cor 6:14-18
14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with
unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and
what communion hath light with darkness?
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or
what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with
idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell
in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my
people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye
separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive
you,
18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be
my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
2
Cor 9:9-12
9 (As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he
hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever.
10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both
minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the
fruits of your righteousness;)
11 Being enriched in every thing to all
bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.
2
Cor 11:15
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers
also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be
according to their works.
Gal
2:21
21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if
righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
Gal
3:6-9
6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was
accounted to him for righteousness.
7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith,
the same are the children of Abraham.
8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would
justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham,
saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with
faithful Abraham.
Gal
5:5
5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of
righteousness by faith.
Eph
4:23-24
23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God
is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Eph
5:8-11
8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye
light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness
and righteousness and truth;)
10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful
works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
Eph
6:14-18
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about
with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the
gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith,
wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword
of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication
in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication
for all saints;
Phil
1:11
11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness,
which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
Phil
3:9-14
9 And be found in him, not having mine own
righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of
Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:
10 That I may know him, and the power of his
resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto
his death;
11 If by any means I might attain unto the
resurrection of the dead.
12 Not as though I had already attained, either
were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for
which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
13 Brethren, I count not myself to have
apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind,
and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the
high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
1
Tim 6:11-12
11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and
follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on
eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good
profession before many witnesses.
2
Tim 2:22
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow
righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a
pure heart.
2
Tim 3:16-17
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God,
and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in
righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly
furnished unto all good works.
2
Tim 4:7-8
7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my
course, I have kept the faith:
8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of
righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day:
and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
Titus
3:4-7
4 But after that the kindness and love of God our
Saviour toward man appeared,
5 Not by works of righteousness which we have
done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration,
and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus
Christ our Saviour;
7 That being justified by his grace, we should be
made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
Heb
1:1-10
God,
who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers
by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his
Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the
worlds;
3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the
express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power,
when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the
Majesty on high;
4 Being made so much better than the angels, as
he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
5 For unto which of the angels said he at any
time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to
him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
6 And again, when he bringeth in the
firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship
him.
7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his
angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God,
is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated
iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of
gladness above thy fellows.
10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the
foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:
Heb
5:13-14
13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in
the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of
full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to
discern both good and evil.
Heb
11:7
7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things
not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house;
by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which
is by faith.
Heb
12:11
Now
no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless
afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are
exercised thereby.
James
1:19-20
19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man
be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
20 For the wrath of man worketh not the
righteousness of God.
James
2:23-24
23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith,
Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was
called the Friend of God.
24 Ye see then how that by works a man is
justified, and not by faith only.
James
3:17-18
17 But the wisdom that is from above is first
pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good
fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace
of them that make peace.
1
Peter 2:24-25
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body
on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by
whose stripes ye were healed.
25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now
returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
1
Peter 3:14
14 But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake,
happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;
2
Peter 1:1-10
Simon
Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained
like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour
Jesus Christ:
2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through
the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
3 According as his divine power hath given unto
us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of
him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and
precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature,
having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to
your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance
patience; and to patience godliness;
7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to
brotherly kindness charity.
8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they
make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our
Lord Jesus Christ.
9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and
cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence
to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall
never fall:
2
Peter 3:13-14
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look
for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for
such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot,
and blameless.
1
John 2:29
29 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that
every one that doeth righteousness is born of him.
1
John 3:7-11
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he
that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the
devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was
manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin;
for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10 In this the children of God are manifest, and
the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God,
neither he that loveth not his brother.
11 For this is the message that ye heard from the
beginning, that we should love one another.
Rev
19:7-9
7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to
him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself
ready.
8 And to her was granted that she should be
arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness
of saints.
9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they
which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me,
These are the true sayings of God.
Rev
19:9
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white
horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in
righteousness he doth judge and make war.
Gen
15:6
6 And he believed in the Lord; and he counted it
to him for righteousness.
Ps
15
15 Lord, who shall abide
in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh
righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.
3 He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor
doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.
4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but
he honoureth them that fear the Lord. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and
changeth not.
5 He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor
taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be
moved.
Ps
17:15
15 As for me, I will behold thy face in
righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
Ps
18:20
20 The Lord rewarded me according to my
righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
Ps
23
he
Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he
leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the
paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy
staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the
presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all
the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
Ps
24:3-6
3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or
who shall stand in his holy place?
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who
hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receive the blessing from the Lord,
and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 This is the generation of them that seek him,
that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.
Prov
21:21
21 He that followeth after righteousness and mercy
findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
Isa
32:17-18
17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace;
and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
18 And my people shall dwell in a peaceable
habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places;
Isa
41:10
10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not
dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea,
I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
Isa
42:6-10
I
the Lord have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will
keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the
Gentiles;
7 To open the blind eyes, to bring out the
prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison
house.
8 I am the Lord: that is my name: and my glory
will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.
9 Behold, the former things are come to pass, and
new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.
10 Sing unto the Lord a new song, and his praise
from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein;
the isles, and the inhabitants thereof.
Isa
45:23
23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of
my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall
bow, every tongue shall swear.
Isa
48:18
18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments!
then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the
sea:
Isa
54:14
14 In righteousness shalt thou be established:
thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror;
for it shall not come near thee.
Isa
54:17
17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall
prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt
condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their
righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.
Isa
58:6-8
6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to
loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the
oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?
7 Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and
that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the
naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own
flesh?
8 Then shall thy light break forth as the
morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness
shall go before thee; the glory of the Lord shall be thy rearward.
Isa
59:16-19
16 And he saw that there was no man, and wondered
that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him;
and his righteousness, it sustained him.
17 For he put on righteousness as a breastplate,
and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of
vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.
18 According to their deeds, accordingly he will
repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he
will repay recompence.
19 So shall they fear the name of the Lord from
the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come
in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.
Isa
61:1-3
61 The Spirit of the Lord
God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto
the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to
the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord,
and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to
give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of
praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of
righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorifie
Isa
61:10
10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul
shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of
salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom
decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her
jewels.
Isa
61:11
11 For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as
the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord
God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.
Jer
23:6
6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel
shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE Lord
OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
Jer
33:15-16
15 In those days, and at that time, will I cause
the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute
judgment and righteousness in the land.
16 In those days shall Judah be saved, and
Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be
called, The Lord our righteousness.
Dan

Prayer of
Salvation
It
is God's will that no one should perish (end up in hell), but that ALL should
come to repentance.
For God so loved this world that He gave His only begotton Son,
that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
God did not send His Son into this world to condemn the world,
but that the world through Him would be saved.
The thief (Satan the devil) comes only for to kill, steal and
destroy. But Jesus has come to give us life, and life more abundantly, until it
overflows.
I urge you to come to the Cross today and receive Jesus as your
Savior and Lord. He will wash away all your sins and make you as clean and
white as fresh snow.
Please do not put it off for another time in the future. I urge
you to not delay. Come to the Lord today and give Him your heart and life. He
will save, and heal you and make you whole.
Please do not delay, because on this earth there are no
guarantees that a person will wake up in the morning. Also, you could be
driving on the highway and be involved in a major collision and be instantly
killed. You may be flying in a jet or aircraft and the plane crashes and
everybody is killed.
A person does not know the exact date that they will die. But
the fact is that every person will eventually taste of death (unless you are
translated to Heaven which is very rare and highly unlikely, although it could
happen for a few that is. it happened for Enoch, Elijah and
Elisha).
Come to the Cross today and do not delay. Time is of the
essence. If you should die not knowing Christ, then you would perish and end up
in hell. Eternity is a very long time. Do not play games with your salvation or
takes unnecessary risks.
Just pray this prayer and mean it with your heart:
Dear Lord Jesus,
I receive You as my Savior and Lord. I give my life over to You.
I believe that You died and rose again, and that if I call on the Name of the
Lord I shall be saved.
I accept you into my heart right now, and confess that You are
Lord and have risen from the dead and forever live to make intercession for
me.
Thank You for washing my heart pure and clean and making me
whole, and for giving me peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Thank You that now I am a new creature in Christ Jesus. The old
has gone and the new has come.
And there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,
who walk not after the flesh (carnality and sin), but walk after the
Spirit. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
If you prayed this prayer, I believe you got born again and are
now heaven bound and will be with the Lord forever and have eternal life. Your
sins are now forgiven. You are accepted in the Beloved.
I would encourage you to find a good Bible based local church to
help you grow in your faith, to learn the Word of God, to praise and worship
Him, and to have fellowship with the saints.
Serving Christ is the best decision you will ever make.
Only Jesus can satisfy your soul, and only He can heal your
heart and make you whole.
He will give you peace you never knew, and sweet love and joy,
and Heaven too, for only Jesus can satisfy your soul.
God bless you!!!
