Have you ever heard the phrase ‘what’s happening’? Well, what happens when the party’s over? What happens when you’ve gone home and you’re all alone and your ‘friends’ aren’t there to ‘comfort’ and ‘encourage’ you? What happens when the so-called fun is gone and the memory wears off and is not enough to sustain you? What happens when the alcohol wears off, the drugs wear off, and you can’t escape anymore? When will you stop running and face reality? we'll all have to give an account of our lives someday!

Well, I’ve got some good news for you! Although we've all broken God's holy righteous law, He still loves us! (though he hates our sin). God sent his son Jesus to save us from his wrath, which we deserve. We have all sinned, and the wage for sin is death.

God sent his word to heal us of our sin sick hearts. Jesus became the sacrifice for our sin, he paid the price to redeem us from this curse we were born with, and to set us free from the grasp of the devil...  (the devil is a LIAR!!!)

God is offering you eternal life. He offers you forgiveness and cleansing. He will make you brand new. you can be redeemed from the pit, from hell's eternal torment if you repent...

Do you ever wonder what that lonely feeling is?; that depression; that emptiness that you’ve been trying to fill; that craving... And all the parties, drugs, alcohol, sex, & even religion can’t satisfy it. That is because it is a deep seated hunger for God. Yet the devil has lied to us to get us trapped by all of his counterfeits.

Jesus said ‘the thief (Satan) comes only to steal, and kill, and destroy; I came that they might have life, and might have it abundantly. {John 10:10} Did you notice the word 'might'? (it depends on your response to His grace). Everyone has become a slave to one sin or another, at some time in life. However, we are still without excuse. In John 8 Jesus said ‘if the... son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.’ and also ‘if you abide in my word, then you are truly disciples of mine; and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

That's GOOD NEWS!

In John 4, there was a woman drawing water out of a well. She was unsatisfied however. She was still thirsty. Jesus offers living water that becomes a well spring of life from within. He said 'if anyone is thirsty, let them come to me and drink...'{John 7:37} Jesus wants you to know Him! God wants your heart, not your pretending, religious attitude! {1 Sam 15:22}

The choice is yours, the counterfeit of the devil, or reality with God.

Isaiah 55:2 says

"Why do you spend money for what is not bread, And your wages for what does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good, And delight yourself in abundance."

Here is what you must do:

Recognize that you are a guilty sinner who has broken God’s law

Realize that God is holy and just and would be righteous if He did send you to hell.

Know that God is merciful, that He loves you and wants to forgive you, He sent his son Jesus to die on the cross in your place.

Know also that Jesus has risen from the grave. He is alive! He will give you eternal life!

Now ask him to forgive you and save you; and you’ll be born-again.

Jesus has promised that if you would repent (that is turn away from your sinful lifestyle) and commit yourself to Him that when you call on His name sincerely He will save you!

Know that today is the day of salvation, tomorrow is not guaranteed.

Pray this prayer (or one like it) from your heart:

If you’ve received Jesus as Lord and Saviour you need to read the bible daily and obey it...
You should also try to find a church that teaches the whole counsel of God’s word.

Let us know how God has touched your life today.
