Glorious Day - Raised To Life - Romans 4:25

This is Namma for Christ with the thirtieth inspirational message dated Tuesday, April 30, 2013. The title of this message is, "Glorious Day"- Raised To Life - Romans 4:25 ". The scripture for this message comes from Romans 4:25  (as found below): 

Romans 4:25

New International Version (NIV)

²⁵ He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.

The Christian group, "Casting Crowns" sing a beautiful, anointed inspirational song entitled, "GLORIOUS DAY".  In this song, the following lyrics are repeated:


"Living, He loved me,

Dying, He saved me,
Buried, He carried my sins far away...
Rising, He justified freely forever,
One day He's coming...
Oh glorious day, oh glorious day!"

These lyrics describe the Christian believers' HOPE IN CHRIST! ONE DAY - JESUS IS COMING BACK! OH GLORIOUS DAY! (SEE BELOW SCRIPTURE - REV. 1: 7-8)

Revelation 1:7-8

King James Version (KJV)

⁷ Behold, He cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see Him, and they also which pierced Him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of Him. Even so, Amen.
⁸ I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

 Romans 4:25 states that JESUS was "delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification." Our sin debt was paid in full by our "sinless" Savior, Jesus Christ. 

JESUS WAS RAISED TO LIFE FOR OUR JUSTIFICATION - BECAUSE OF HIS GREAT LOVE FOR US!

JESUS PAID IT ALL!

As the "chorus" (below) of the famous Christian hymn,  "JESUS PAID IT ALL" remind us:

Chorus:
Jesus paid it all
All to Him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain
He washed it white as snow

(The words to the song "Jesus Paid It All" were written by Elvina Hall (1818-1889) in 1865.)

NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH....PUT YOUR TRUST, FAITH AND "HOPE" IN JESUS CHRIST! HE LOVES YOU! HE IS WITH YOU! YOU ARE NOT ALONE! 

BECAUSE OF WHAT JESUS DID FOR US - WE CAN FACE WHATEVER COMES OUR WAY - WITH JESUS ON OUR SIDE! HEBREWS 13:5 CONFIRMS WHAT THE LORD PROMISES: 

Hebrews 13:5b

King James Version (KJV)

 ...He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

Please enjoy the included  inspirational song and video (with lyrics) of  "GLORIOUS DAY" performed by the Christian group, "Casting Crowns":

Brighter Day-God's Love -Tell the Story- Psalm 78: 6-7

This is Namma for Christ with the twenty-ninth inspirational message dated Monday, April 22nd, 2013. The title of this message is, "Brighter Day-God's Love...Tell the Story-Psalm 78: 6-7 ". The scripture for this message comes from Psalm 78: 6-7 (as found below):

Psalm 78:6-7

King James Version (KJV)

⁶ That the generation to come might know them, even the children which should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children:
⁷ That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments:

When you have GOOD NEWS....what do you do with it? YOU TELL SOMEONE!!! YOU SHARE GOOD NEWS WITH SOMEONE THAT YOU KNOW! THIS IS WHAT GOD WOULD HAVE US TO DO WITH "THE BIBLE" - HIS HOLY WORD! SHARE THE GOOD NEWS...TELL THE STORY!

Our scripture comes from Psalm 78: 6-7 (as provided above) whereas  the psalmist called God's people to never tire of  "telling  the story" of God's redemptive acts to future generations. Below I included the verses in Psalm 78 that precede the previously given scripture - please read Psalm 78: 1-5 verses (listed below):

Psalm 78:1-5

King James Version (KJV)

78 Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth.

² I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old:
³ Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.
⁴ We will not hide them from their children, shewing to the generation to come the praises of the Lord, and His strength, and His wonderful works that He hath done.
⁵ For He established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which He commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children:

PLEASE NOTICE "WHY" WE SHOULD SHARE WHAT GOD HAS DONE: 

Psalm 78: 7 -

^{7 "}That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments"

If we want what is best for ourselves, our children, and others...LET US INSPIRE FAITH, OBEDIENCE, AND HOPE IN THE LORD! IF WE "WANT" THE BEST FOR OUR LIVES AND THOSE WHOM WE LOVE, LET US "GIVE" THE BEST - LET US TELL GOD'S STORY...BECAUSE OF HIS LOVE FOR US - HE HAS DONE SO MUCH FOR US.....LET US SHARE WHAT GOD HAS DONE!

Below are the lyrics to the included inspirational song and video, entitled, "Brighter Day" by "Kirk Franklin and the Family". This song has lyrics that state: "Because of  YOUR LOVE...LIFE HAS BRAND NEW MEANING!"   GOD HAS BEEN SO GOOD TO US! WE MUST SHARE HIS WORD WITH OTHERS - ESPECIALLY OUR CHILDREN - SO ONE DAY, THEY CAN SHARE IT WITH FUTURE GENERATIONS!

BE BLESSED!

"Brighter Day" by "Kirk Franklin and the Family" lyrics

When I close my eyes and think of you
And reminisce on all the things you do
I can't imagine my life without you
It's like paradise now I know that it's real (um)
It's a mystery for someone to give their life just for me
What you did on Calvary
Makes me wanna love you more

[Chorus:]
I never knew I could be so happy
And I never knew I'd be so secure, because of your love
Life has brand new meaning
It's gonna be a brighter day, brighter day

Never thought that I would smile again
I never thought the dark clouds would end
Never thought that I could have a friend
That would keep me never leave me alone (um)
Jesus you're my everything
The only one that makes my heart sing (heart sing)
Now I know what real love means
It's everlasting, lasting.

[Chorus]2 times

[Bridge:]
Nothing can compare to the joy ya bring an ever lasting love affair
Jesus my life will never be the same, I found someone who truly cares

(music)

[Chorus:]
I never knew I could be so happy
And I never knew I'd be so secure, because of your love
Life has brand new meaning
It's gonna be a brighter day, brighter day
brighter day, brighter day

brighter day, brighter day (repeat 20 times)

(chorus)

How He Loves - JESUS LOVES YOU! JOHN 15:9

This is Namma for Christ with the twenty-eighth inspirational message dated Saturday, April 13th, 2013. The title of this message is, "How He Loves - JESUS LOVES YOU! JOHN 15:9". The scripture for this message comes from John 15:9 (as found below):

John 15:9

King James Version (KJV)

⁹ As the Father hath loved Me, so have I loved you: continue ye in My love.

This message is about LOVE. This is not about any ordinary love...this is about the TRUE LOVE that JESUS, OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, HAS FOR "YOU"! 

In our scripture in John 15:9, JESUS SAID, "As the Father hath loved Me, so have I loved you: continue ye in My love." 

This is not love that is based on what you do...JESUS LOVES YOU!
He died for us on Calvary's cross and rose again on the third day (for your sins and mine - for ALL who would believe in HIM!)

Please do not  focus on yourself or your problems!  FOCUS ON JESUS! PRAY TO HIM! HE IS YOUR SAVIOR! YOU ARE NOT ALONE! GOD IS WITH YOU - IN WHATEVER YOU ARE GOING THROUGH! TRUST IN HIM AND HAVE FAITH IN JESUS! HE WILL HELP YOU WITH "WHATEVER" YOU NEED! NO PROBLEM IS TOO BIG FOR THE LORD TO HANDLE!
HE LOVES YOU SO MUCH! HE HAS A PURPOSE "SPECIFICALLY" FOR YOU! SEEK THE LORD (IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY). REMEMBER WHAT JESUS SAID IN JOHN 15:13 -

John 15:13

King James Version (KJV)

¹³ Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

JESUS WANTS TO USE YOU (AS HIS VESSEL) TO SHOW OTHERS WHAT HE CAN DO THROUGH YOUR LIFE ...IF YOU LET HIM IN YOUR HEART! YOU WILL BE BLESSED AND YOU WILL BE A BLESSING TO OTHERS!

Included is a song and video (with lyrics) of an anointed song, "HOW HE LOVES", by the Christian group, "The David Crowder Band". I  included the written lyrics below - because the song is so beautiful and inspirational.
(I do not own the rights to this song.)

BE BLESSED!

How He Loves (lyrics) - David Crowder Band

He is jealous for me, loves like a hurricane, I am a tree, 
Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy. 
When all of a sudden, I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory, 
And I realize just how beautiful You are, 
And how great Your affections are for me. 

And oh, how He loves us oh 
Oh how He loves us, 
How He loves us all 

He is jealous for me, Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree, 
Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy. 
When all of a sudden, I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory, 
And I realize just how beautiful You are, 
And how great Your affections are for me. 

And oh, how He loves us oh, 
Oh how He loves us, 
How He loves us all 

He loves us, 
Oh how He loves us, 
Oh how He loves us, 
Oh how He loves. 

And we are His portion and He is our prize, 
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes, 
If His grace is an ocean, we're all sinking. 
And heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss, 
And my heart turns violently inside of my chest, 
I don't have time to maintain these regrets, 
When I think about, the way... 

That He loves us, 
Oh how He loves us, 
Oh how He loves us, 
Oh how He loves. 
Yeah, He loves us, 
Oh how He loves us, 
Oh how He loves us, 
Oh how He loves. 

Yeah, He loves us, 
Oh how He loves us, 
Oh how He loves us, 
Oh how He loves.

JESUS IS THE WAY - JOHN 14:6 (HE IS EVERYTHING TO ME)

This is Namma for Christ with the twenty-seventh inspirational message dated Wednesday, April 3rd, 2013. The title of this message is "JESUS IS THE WAY - JOHN 14:6  (HE IS EVERYTHING TO ME)" . The scripture for this message is found in John 14:6. Please read below:

John 14:6

King James Version (KJV)

⁶ Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.

JESUS IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE!

THERE ARE "NOT" MANY PATHWAYS TO THE SAME DESTINATION!  JESUS IS THE ONLY  WAY TO GOD!  Jesus was born, lived and was crucified  at Calvary (for our sins). He was resurrected three days later, conquering sin and death - because of God's great love for us - as John 3:16 states:

John 3:16

King James Version (KJV)

¹⁶ For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Salvation is found only in Jesus Christ:

In Acts 4: 8-12, Peter (who was with John) told the rulers, the high priest Annas, and the elders of Israel - that "salvation" is found only in Jesus Christ: "There is no other name under heaven given to mankind whereby we must be saved". (Please read below - Acts 4: 8-12)  : Peter said this after the lame man was healed (in Acts 3) at the gate of the temple called Beautiful:

Acts 4:8-12

New International Version (NIV)

⁸ Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them: “Rulers and elders of the people! ⁹ If we are being called to account today for an act of kindness shown to a man who was lame and are being asked how he was healed, ¹⁰ then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed.¹¹ Jesus is

“‘the stone you builders rejected,
    which has become the cornerstone.’

¹² Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”

Whatever your need - Jesus is the answer!

Included is an inspiring video and an anointed song performed by Gospel artist  Tye Tribbett and his choir G.A. (Greater Anointing)  entitled "Everything Part 1 & Part 2".

In the included song, the lyrics state that JESUS IS EVERYTHING TO ME....What is HE to you?

CALL HIM! Yield to HIM! PRAY TO HIM! JESUS LOVES YOU! HE WANTS WHAT IS "BEST" FOR ALL OF GOD'S CHILDREN! HE WANTS TO BE "EVERYTHING TO YOU". HE WANTS YOU TO FULLY DEPEND ON HIM. HE WANTS TO USE "YOU" AS HIS VESSEL FOR HIS GLORY!

JESUS IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE - JOHN 14: 6  

 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.
