Have you ever ran into religious people who are really going through it? You know those people who are always having a hard time with life, how they used to act is hanging around them like a bad odor, and they can't seem to get forgiven of it. They are doing the best they can, which is never good enough. They don't know which way to go, they are sick, broke, bound and surrounded by the cares of this life. They have a form of Godliness, but deny God's power to do anything about it. They are trying to establish their own righteousness, aka (the best they can). They really love their darkness more than the light, and if they would get honest, He would set them free. I know, I used to be one of them. I pray for mercy for them and that the Lord would find them, like He found me, and set them free.
If they could only meet the Jesus I serve. You see, I serve Jesus Christ the Messiah, the son of the living God, the one who forgives all my sins, and heals every sickness. The one who lived on this earth without sin (Mr. Perfect Jesus) and can show me how to do it too. He redeems my life from destruction (curse of poverty, debt, lack, depression, anxiety), and crowns me with loving kindness and tender mercies. He satisfies my mouth with good things, so my youth is renewed like the eagles. He set me apart. He made me a Holy Nation, a peculiar people, He delivered me from the control and dominion of Satan, and transferred me into the kingdom of the son of his love. He took down the middle wall of partition, and made my nigh by His blood. He gave me every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, and strengthened me with might by His spirit in my inner man, this same spirit raised Jesus from the dead. Who can be against me? Who can be my foe? He disarmed principalities and powers, and made a show of them openly. He triumphed over them in it and set a liberty them that are bruised. He healed the broken hearted, and delivered the captives. He said, "Go and sin no more." Jesus died and suffered our punishment, to give us His life. He descended to the deepest place and ascended to the highest of highs, so no matter where you are, He can find you, there is no place that He has not been and He can reach you. His hand is always outstretched before you, just grab it. Let him take the heavy burdens of this life and give you his easy yoke and light burdens. "Come to me," Jesus said, "All who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
