What is the big issue???

Nobody knows better than oneself that there is something inside us that needs to be filled.
At some point in our lives we come to a place where we take stock of our lives and look back to see what we have amounted to. Many people call this a mid-life crises, but it does not depend on your age. It is only a crossroad where you get faced with the big question in life – “What am I here for?” That eternal calling in our hearts that tells us we were made for so much more.

People can find temporal fulfillment in many things like; alcohol, drugs or sex but nothing can fill a hole that only God can fill.

God has made provision for us to fill this void in our hearts. You see, God is a just God and when Adam sinned against God in the Garden of Eden, then justice needed to be executed and the Bible says in Rom 6:23 ”For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” So a just God has to execute justice. In Romans 3:23 the Bible says “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” which means because we sinned should die, but John 3:16 says” Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. God sent Jesus to the cross to die in our place, so that we do not need to.
This means God has already made provision and the only thing you have to do about that gift is receive it!!

Maybe you are thinking that your sin is too much and God will not forgive you then read this story about a woman who was caught in the act of adultery in John 8:

John 8:3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
John 8:4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
John 8:5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
John 8:6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
John 8:7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

John 8:8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
John 8:9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
John 8:10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
John 8:11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

You see, Jesus was the only one who had the right to throw the first stone at her. He did not do it, neither will He condemn you when you come to him.

What must I do?

Romans 10:9 says” If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is the Christ and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, then you will be saved.”

So if you want to fill the void in your heart permanently, read this prayer out loud.

Father, I come to you in the name of Jesus and I know that I am a sinner. Lord I believe that you raised Jesus from the dead and I confess that Jesus is the Christ. Lord Jesus come and take over my life, be Lord of my life. Thank you for dying in my place on the cross and that I may have eternal life because of that. I am sorry for my sins, forgive me please. Thank you that I can now know that I am saved. Amen.
