Who Will Go? Part 2

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


Like Isaiah, we have saw the grace and mercy of God over our lives. More than that, we have the privileged of seeing God's love for us in so many ways, and the bible tells us that in the greatest act of love in the whole of mankind, Jesus died for us.
Not because He owed us anything, nor was He forced to do it - It was His decision.

We are saved because of this amazing act by a God who loves us so much, but are we as excited as Isaiah? Are we even thankful to God for this life that He has given to us? Maybe we were thankful in the beginning, but through the years, the magnitude of God’s love for us seems to fade away.

Should that be the case?

Remember, God is the same yesterday, today and tommorrow. His love for us doesn't diminish over the years. It may be two thousand years since He died on that cross, but His love for us is still the same now and the day He died at the cross. God doesn't shortchange us, but He wants us to go back to the cross, the very same cross two thousand years ago and seek Him.

Remember the crown of thorns, the whippings, the nails that drove through his hands and feet, remember the blood He spilled, the pain he endured, and remember the victory He gave us all. Remember the day of your salvation, remember the countless number of times you sinned against Him and yet Jesus still rained down His grace and mercy over your life. Remember the love He poured over your life, the best friend who is always there for you. Remember Jesus.

Brothers and Sisters, it's time to stop short-changing God and give Him our best. It will not be easy, but God will provide you with the ways. Believe. Believe God for this generation who will rise up for the King of Glory. It's time for christians all over the world to come together as one in the Name of Jesus. It's time for us to shout to God, "Here am I. Send me! Send me! Send me!"
