A Plea To Young People

The greatest choice of any young person now, is to give his or her life wholly and solely to the Lord.  It will save them unnecessary burdens.
A study proved that 88% of all conversions occur before age 19 and 68% occur between 9 and 14.
80% of school students who graduate without Jesus will never be saved and children ages 5-13 have a 32% probability of being saved. 14-18 have a 4% probability and 18 plus have a 6% probability.  What this means? The longer you go without Jesus, the less chances you have because the enemy, Satan keeps blinding their eyes with the pleasures of this world.  I entreat all young people today, do not burn your candle for the devil and blow the smoke of a wasted life in the face of God.  He wants you now because you are strong to carry His message far and near. Do not waste your energy, your vim and vitality for old Lucifer, the devil and be like that a 94 year old man who got saved at a nursing home.
Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them (Ecclesiastes 12:1).
Daniel was a young prince of Judah when he was captured by Nebuchadnezzar in 606 B.C.  Daniel had to decide whether he should partake of the food and drink that was set before him.  However, Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the Kings meat, nor with his wine (Daniel 1:8).  Daniel asked for a more wholesome and healthy food, and guess what, he got it. His determination not to violate his conscience marked him as a youth with a bright future, and what a future it was.  Young people, dare to be like Daniel, dare to stand alone, do not follow the crowd, be determined to give God a chance in your life today.

Nailing My Sins To His cross

That day when they crucified my Saviour, He was willing to pay all the cost.  When they drove the nails through His body, they were nailing my sins to His cross. Oh the shame of it, my sins crucified Him that day, my sins were to blame.  Forgive me Lord I pray, I will live so the world can know that I love You for nailing my sins to the cross. Although this was centuries ago now, and I was not even living at all, The Bible says Jesus died for all sinners.  This includes me, Oh praise His dear name.  Thank you Jesus!

I Look To You, Dear Lord

You are my hope, the Lord of my life.  I wait on You and move cautiously in my decisions.  I am not ashamed to trust in Your guidance, Lord.  Instead I feel thankful for the trust in You.  I am filled with peace.  Throughout the day my thoughts often turn to You for direction and strength.  In quiet and confidence I find the strength only You can give. You, dear Father, are my Rock and my defender; I shall not fear.  I know I believe, and I am persuaded that You keep me close to You day by day. I look to You.  I doubt not in Your unfailing love for me.  Thank You.  In Jesus' name.  Amen.  Anita Corine Donihue

Laying Crowns At Jesus' Feet

Image
Revelation 3:11, "Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown."It is possible to earn a crown and then to lose it again.  Wouldn't that be a terrible tragedy? May God grant that it will not happen to us.  John 19:5 tells us of a mock coronation when they crowned the Lord Jesus with a cruel crown of thorns.  What a demonstration of the depravity of fallen man.  In Revelation 4:10-11, the elders take their crowns and give them to Jesus saying, "Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power."  I want to have crowns to lay at His feet at that time.  O the utter shame of a Christian who does  not have at least one crown to lay at His feet.  He wins the crown for us as we yield to Him.  The crown is rightly His, for He has won.  I desire to be able to lay many crowns at His blessed feet. What about you? Some of the crowns are: Crowns for runners: 1 Corinthians 9:24,25 Crowns for soul winners: 1 Thessalonian
