Jesus wants you to be a link in His endless timeless chain of salvation!

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God. Ephesians 2:8 NKJV

None of us, not your Pastor or the person who led you to Christ ever did anything to earn God’s grace. Jesus saved us. We did not save ourselves. God holds out His gift of salvation to all people who call on the name of Jesus Christ!

Since no one can earn God’s gift no one will be denied salvation. It is God’s desire for all people to enter a saving relationship with Jesus. We should never think we are better than people who are not saved.

God saved us from death and eternal separation from Him so we can live in His presence in unending joy!

If I could share one simple truth with people who do not know the Lord I would say, “Jesus loves you.” “The Lord created you to live in a loving relationship with Him!”

A barrier came between God and man!

God made a way for that barrier to be broken down. We can be blessed with an intimate loving relationship with Jesus today. The way to reconciliation with God is faith in the risen Lord Jesus Christ!

God is alive. Jesus wants to walk beside us today. Jesus wants to show unsaved people the way to eternal life. Jesus is calling us to be a link in His endless timeless chain of salvation!

Each one of us is called to lead other people to faith in Jesus Christ! Sharing the Lord with other people is a gift of God! It is also a responsibility entrusted to us by God!

It is by the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ and not of ourselves that we can lead people to faith in the Lord. Jesus reaches out to people through us!

The God who created us in His image and Likeness is calling you into an intimate loving relationship with Jesus Christ today!

If you do not know the Lord He is speaking to you today. He is saying, “My precious child, I love you!” “In my right hand is the gift of eternal life.” “Come to Me so I can walk beside you today and with you in eternity!”

If you know the Lord you are His workmanship created for good works which He prepared, so you could walk in them, so that other people can receive the gift of God!

Do not boast. Do not get puffed up with pride. Serve the Risen Lord Jesus in humility and faithfulness!

Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!

Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune telling. This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation.” And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out that very hour. Acts 16:16-18 NKJV

The slave girl was speaking the truth. She was possessed by an evil spirit. The evil spirit was drawing people away from Christ!

This attack came as God’s servants went to prayer. The enemy of our souls attacks when we step out in faith. Satan seeks to distract us. He wants us to focus our attention on things other than Jesus.

The devil perverts the truth. He uses it against us. No one can serve two masters. This girl was speaking the truth about Paul and his companions while practicing witchcraft. When people claim to speak for God we must consider how they live.

The girl followed the disciples for several days before they cast the demon out of her. It is important for us to wait on the Lord before stepping out in faith. The bible tells us Paul was greatly annoyed by this girl. Paul was not fearful. The Lord was with Him!

Paul and Silas were put in jail. The owners of the slave girl were angry at the loss of income when the demon was cast out of her. While Paul and Silas were in jail they shared the gospel with the jailer. His entire household was saved.

God uses Satan’s attacks for His glory and our salvation!

Satan is a real being. He takes people captive to do his will. There really are demons who seek to destroy God’s people and bring destruction to our world.

We have nothing to fear from the devil or his demons when we live according to God’s will. We have nothing to fear from anyone or anything when we step out in faith to serve Jesus!

Jesus wants us to fear Him and Him alone. He wants us to know His power and authority are unequaled in all of creation.

God wants you share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the people in your life. Jesus wants you to walk in great boldness because He is with you everywhere you go!

Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!

Jesus wants you to be a link in His endless timeless chain of salvation!
