1 Corinthians 6:20 (NKJV) For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.
My relationship with God is not for sale. It is a gift. I couldn't buy it. There was nothing I could do to earn it. You and I have to believe it, accept it, and receive it.
Accept what Christ did when He died on the cross and rose up out of the grave to new life.
Believe Jesus came to earth to be our Savior, Messiah and Redeemer.
Receive the free gift of Salvation.
Jesus paid for my sin just like He paid for yours. When we accept it, believe it and receive it, the promises of God are given to us.
Having a relationship with God means it wasn't just an introduction. It is so much more. I am a child of God. I have access to my heavenly Father every minute of every day. He is not too busy for me. He is proud of me. He listens to me and I have learned to listen to Him. I walk in the fullness of what I know about Him, so I can know Him more. I do not want to be like the Children of Israel who only knew the works of God. I want to know God like Moses.
Psalms 103:7 (NKJV)
He made known His ways to Moses,
His acts to the children of Israel.
Moses went to God to speak to Him and for God to speak to him. I want to know when God is calling me to sit with Him. I want to go up the mountain or into the tent. I want God and I to have a special bond where I know His presence, even if I haven't spotted Him yet. I have access to Him everyday and He has access to me. He is here for me and I am available for Him. He listens to me and I listen to Him. He invites me to join Him and I participate. He blesses me and I am a blessing to Him. He pours his love into my life and I am a tree bearing the fruit of His goodness to others. My relationship with Him cannot be contained. As I sit in His presence, He fills me up. As I pour His love upon others, He pours more into my life. My cup runs over with His mercy, kindness, peace and joy. His love knows no end. I receive and take action in the beautiful relationship He offers. He leads me into triumph and I follow after Him. His protection is without error. The reason I can totally surrender to His leading is because He will always lead me in the direction that is best for me. He works things out in my favor. I didn't say perfect. My life is far from perfect. However, God is the perfect in all of His ways. I wish I followed EVERY time but I am human and my will gets in the way. Sometimes it is my unwillingness that gets in the way. I just don't want to, today or in that moment. But God, always works things out for my best, with my willingness to walk in His perfect plan, for my life. This is and can be true for your life. My Salvation, bought by the obedience of Jesus Christ to take my place of punishment upon the cross, cannot be bought by another. Jesus already paid for me and I am God's child. My relationship isn't for sale. Thankfully, Jesus paid for all of us. We all have access to a relationship with God. I am thankful God had a plan of redemption when He created human beings. I am thankful for Jesus' obedience to be our sacrifice. He paid for you. He paid for me. We were bought with a price. Thank you, Jesus!
Father, again, I am in awe of You. Before you even created the first human, You had a plan for our redemption. Because You gave me a choice You knew I would need a Savior. I would need Your Son, Jesus Christ, the King of kings, the Great I AM. He is the Prince of Peace, the Lion and the Lamb. He is my Redeemer, my Rock and my Strong Tower. Thank you for Your amazing love! I am overwhelmed! You loved me before I knew love. Because of Your love, I am able to love. I will worship You all the days of my life, in Jesus' name amen.
