Have Everlasting Life.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16. (KJV).
Have You personally accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?
Are You Sure?
Don’t just say a mental yes.
Be Sure.
It is an important event that you must know about.
Don’t just assume that you are a child of God.
You must know when you personally met Him.
It’s never too late to do that today if you are unsure.
Simply Invite Him into your Life.
Surrender the Lordship Of your Life to Him.
“For here is the way God loved the world—he gave his only, unique Son as a gift. So now everyone who believes in him will never perish but experience everlasting life.”
Do you believe in Jesus?
Maybe you say yes, definitely.
When you believe in Jesus, you also follow Him.
You also obey Him.
You do as He asks you to do.
Are you willing to do everything He asks from you?
Do you want eternal life rather than perish?
When last did you proclaim Jesus to your friends? To those you work with or meet at social occasions? Do you listen to the voice of Jesus?
“Based on what was handed down to us by those who from the start were eyewitnesses and proclaimers of the message.”Luke 1:2 (CJB)
Daily be an eyewitness for the Lord.
Daily be a proclaimer of the Lord.
Application to the Christian life:
Believe in Jesus.
Follow Him.

And Joseph and his mother marvelled…
“And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord;.”
Luke 2:22 (KJV)
“And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him.”
Luke 2:33 KJV
Yes, It was Father’s Day.
Just Yesterday.
Pastor, You did not send out a message to the Fathers?
But Why?
It is always challenging to coin or package the work of parenting to either of them alone.
God, in the beginning, created Man.
From him, he made Eve.
To both, He gave them the assignment to Dominate and Multiply.
We thank God for the Fathers
We Praise God for the Mothers.
One of them alone cannot get the job done.
When the Angel first visited Mary, she communicated what she encountered to Joseph, his fiancé.
When Joseph thought of abandoning the relationship, God spoke to him in a dream.
Both got the message.
It’s a joint assignment.
Joseph and his mother jointly took the child Jesus for dedication.
They were both available to listen and keep their child’s destiny in their hearts.
“And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth. And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him. Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the Passover.” Luke 2:39-41 KJV
Many love to quote and confess that the child grew and waxed strong….
It is predicated and embedded in the fact that both father and mother were present in that child’s life.
As we commend the fathers on Father’s day, let us use it as an opportunity to communicate it again and again, both father and mother are required.

What is inside you?
“All these evil things come from within and defile the man.” Mark 7:23. (KJV).
What plans do you and your friends make?
Did you notice everything you do, is because you thought about it?
Sometimes you see or hear something which gives you a thought.
That thought becomes a desire and develops into a plan.
All you need to do is to execute the plan.
Everything originates within you.
“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.” Philippians 4:8(KJV)
If you are pure of heart, pureness will come from you.
If you have an evil heart, you will do evil things.
What would you like to be? Pure or evil?
Guard your thoughts.
Subject them to the authority o the Word.
The Holy Spirit will help you.
Application to the Christian life:
Let your heart be pure.
Bring forth fruits of the Holy Spirit.
Think about God’s purpose.

Do you have what you need?
“For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.” Mark 4:25. (KJV).
That seems unfair.
Why should the person who already has, receive more?
Why must the person who does not have, lose even the little bit he thought he had?
When a person has much, he uses it, and it increases.
When a person has little, he either saves it from fear it will damage or mess it up because he does not know how to treat it.
God gave you talents.
He expects you to increase those talents.
If you do not use your talents, they will be taken away from you.
If you can sing but never do, you will eventually be unable to sing so beautifully anymore.
If you cannot sing, you practice singing.
Eventually, you will be able to sing.
Do you want more talents?
What are you going to do about it?
Step out in faith today.
Use those talents God has given you.
Don’t be afraid of human judgment.
Daily Increase in your skills.
Glorify God with all that you have.
Application to the Christian life:
Use the gifts God gave you.
Work for God, and do not be afraid.

What do you do with the seed?
“Hearken; behold, there went out a sower to sow.” Mark 4:3. (KJV).
Have you been told?
That You need to accept Jesus Christ in your heart?
You need to invite and accept Him as your Lord.
Did a friend tell you about Jesus?
Where did you hear about Jesus for the first time?
What did you do when you first heard about Jesus? Did you get excited?
Do you want to hear more?
Did you apply the words you were told?
What did your friends do when you told them about Jesus?
Do you discuss the words of Jesus when you can do so?
How fertile is your heart to the word of God?
Let the seed of the word of God grow in your life.
Also, share the Goodnews of the kingdom.
Tell someone today …what?
At least One Good thing God has done for you.
Yes, tell someone today about that great thing God has done for you.
Application to the Christian life:
Have a fertile heart.
Allow God’s word to germinate in it.
Bring forth fruit of the Holy Spirit.
