Laying Crowns At Jesus' Feet


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 Thessalonians 2:19
  • Crowns for anticipators: 2Timothy 4:8
  • Crowns for faithful ones: James 1:12
  • Crowns for true pastors. 1Peter 5:4
  • Crowns for all of the redeemed, crowns of gold. Revelation 4:4
How many crowns do you expect to win?

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!

God's Image in You... Priceless!‏ By Robert A. Schuller "God said, 'Now we will make humans, and they will be like us. We will let them rule the fish, the birds, and all other living creatures.'" - Genesis 1:26 (CEV) A speaker began his seminar by holding up a twenty-dollar bill and asking who in the room would like it. Of course, nearly every hand went up. "I'm going to give this to one of you as soon as I do this..." he said - whereupon he wadded the bill into a tiny ball and rolled it around between his palms. "Anybody still want it now?" he asked. The same hands went up. "Okay, what if I do this?" he asked, dropping the wadded-up bill on the floor and stomping on it with his shoe and grinding it into the carpet. "Anybody still want this badly treated twenty-dollar bill now?" he asked. Again, all the hands went up. The speaker's point quickly became obvious. The value of the twenty-dollar bill was not dependent on
