hello cell ! :D hope you guys have had a good week.
there'll be no cell this coming friday, cause its the fourth week. so yea, take a break on your fridays. stay home the night watching videos, playing your games whatsoever. (:
anyway, here's a verse which has spoken to me these few days.
23for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
Romans 3:23-24
we all need to recognise we have fallen short of the glory ! that no matter what you do, you can never be made righteous. your self efforts, your works, can never make you righteous. its not how much you serve in church that makes your righteous. the blood of Jesus makes you righteous ! and you are justified FREELY. by his grace, that came through Jesus Christ ! there're no conditions on whether GOd justifies you or not. doesnt mean a sin like lying, it'll be justified, but if you steal, you wont be justified. you are justified FREELY ! no strings attached. thats how good god is.
and the word 'justified' means, you have been given the right, to claim what is yours in Christ ! you have been given the right ! given, not earned ! given, not given and taken as god wishes ! its GIVEN. God says he wants you to prosper. YOU WILL PROSPER. he says you will be healed of any sickness, claim that ! you have the right, to claim it. you dont have to go to god, trembling in fear, praying that he might heal you. you dont need to do more good when you're sick, or when you need god's help in your exams, so that god will help you. He will ! because you have been justified ! not being justified. you are already justified ! so claim all that God promises in Jesus. AMEN.
