I do hope that you are going to be blessed with the contents. I believe God will do something good in your life today. I encourage you to read the Word of God and allow the Spirit of God to show you all the great things He has for you. God will do it but you must believe. All things are possible to him who believe Amen! Agape greetings to you in the Name that is above every name, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, the resurrected Son of the Living God. JESUS IS LORD! It is a great joy for me to share this brief message with you in this issue of Agape Ki Awaaz. In John 10:9-11 (NKJV), Jesus says, 9 I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. Jesus said that the devil steals, kills and destroys. Whatever satan touches he attempts to destroy because satan is against mankind. He opposes men and tries to destroy them in every way he can. He tries to build in people the kind of life that has seed of destruction in it. It is the kind of life that crumbles that will not endure. In contrast, Jesus said, I am come that you might have life and have it more abundantly. This is a new kind of life. Life of fullness and that has real joy in it. It goes down into the innermost part of our being and changes the person we are into the person God expects us to be. It is life over, above and beyond anything that human beings ordinarily know; life that includes real salvation, real spiritual change and deliverance. This abundant life that Christ gives delivers us from sin, from sickness, from demons and from fear. This life puts a shine on our face, a sparkle in our eyes, a song in our soul and glory in our life.
The giver of abundant life is Jesus, our Lord. He is the Door that leads to the abundant life. We must enter this Living Door by faith. Ephesians 2:8-9 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. God does not push or force us through the Living Door, Christ Jesus. When we do enter in and receive Him as our own personal Savior, we are saved. After salvation we keep going through Him to find blessings and answers to our prayers, because Jesus then becomes our intercessor, advocate, high priest and lawyer interceding for us to the Father. Jesus is our Savior and Healer. 1Timothy 2:5 For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, Jesus then tells us what the thief the devil tries to steal the Word from us and keeps us from the will and blessings of God for our lives. The devil tries to keep us from having the abundant life in Christ. The devil tries to kill the Word and us if he could. Not just kill, but he would like to destroy us in hell. The devil is the author of evil things. Ephesians 2:2 in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, The Bible warns us in 1 Peter 5:8 (KJV) Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. The reason the devil is roaring, is because Jesus pulled all his teeth after our Lord s death on the cross, His burial and triumphant resurrection from the dead. The devil is defeated by Jesus! Jesus is the one who said in John 14:6 that "I am the way, the truth and the life." He is the Lamb of God who takes away all our uncleanness the sin of the world. Jesus the Living Door, the Good Shepherd tells us why and what He came to do in our lives. Just to name a few: (1) He came to bring us salvation. 1 John 5:11-13 11 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God. (2) He came to bring us healing. 1 Peter 2:24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness by whose stripes you were healed. Matthew 8:17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying: He Himself took our infirmities. And bore our sicknesses. (3) He came to bring us prosperity. 3 John 2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers. Philippians 4:19 And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. 2 Corinthians 8:9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich. He did it for you! He did it for me. John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 6:37 All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out. Romans 10:13 For whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved. Romans 10:9-11 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame. This that puts you on the right path to ABUNDANT LIFE.
