JESUS IS THE ONE





DO YOU GET DISCOURAGED AND FEARFUL ONCE IN A WHILE?  WITH THE ECONOMY THE WAY IT IS AND NOW THIS VIRUS, I AM SURE A LOT OF US DO.  HEARING ABOUT SOMEONE IN THE BIBLE LET'S US KNOW THAT WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES THAT HAS A BAD DAY ONCE IN A WHILE. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO STAY IN THAT STATE.  GOD ALWAYS GIVES US A WAY OUT.  AS BAD AS IT IS, WE SHOULD NOT FEAR IT BUT TRUST JESUS TO TAKE CARE OF US.

 

IF SOME OF YOU ARE FEARFUL, LET ME GIVE YOU A FEW SCRIPTURES TO HELP YOU.

 


EXODUS 23:25  And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.
 


PSALM 46:1-3 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.  Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.

 

1ST JOHN 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

2ND TIMOTHY 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.


 

LET'S LOOK AT JOHN THE BAPTIST FOR A MINUTE.  I DON'T THINK HE WAS EVER FEARFUL AS HE KNEW WHO HE WAS IN JESUS BUT I DO BELIEVE HE GOT DISCOURAGED WHEN HE WAS IN PRISON.  THE SCRIPTURE SAYS THAT HE ACTUALLY SENT ONE OF HIS FOLLOWERS TO JESUS AND ASK HIM TO ASK JESUS WAS HE REALLY THE ONE OR SHOULD THEY EXPECT SOMEONE ELSE.  BELOW IS THE SCRIPTURE TELLING ALL ABOUT THIS.



LUKE 7:20-22 When the men came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist sent us to you to ask, ‘Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?’”  At that very time Jesus cured many who had diseases, sicknesses and evil spirits, and gave sight to many who were blind.

So he replied to the messengers, “Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is proclaimed to the poor.



JESUS DID NOT TELL THEM THAT HE WAS THE ONE, HE REFERRED JOHN BACK TO THE SCRIPTURE WHERE IT SAYS IN LUKE 4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted , to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised.  



JESUS JUST TOLD THEM TO GO BACK AND TELL JOHN WHAT THEY HAD SEEN AND HEARD BECAUSE RIGHT THEN HE WAS FULFILLING THE SCRIPTURE. THIS WOULD SHOW JOHN THAT JESUS WAS THE ONE.  SO, WHEN YOU GET DISCOURAGED OR FEARFUL, GET INTO THE BIBLE AND ALL DISCOURAGEMENT AND FEAR WILL FADE AWAY. JESUS IS THE ONE.



GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
