FRESH DEW
YouCANDoit! BySis.RickiFuller
WSince last week, how has your thinking with GOD been? Have you taken time to spend with our Intercessor, The Lord Jesus Christ, thanking Him and ‘speaking your thang’ to Him? Do you recognize and accept that you are extremely special to GOD? Who else do you know that would send his child (his most cherished person) to live among a confused and, at times, a vile people?

Not only was Jesus Christ sent to earth to merely live among us. His coming to earth was the absolute best thing that could have happened for people throughout the entire earth.
As a matter-of-fact, Romans 5:19 suggests that due to Jesus having lived and taught on earth, those of us who believe Him are made acceptable to GOD! Succinctly speaking there are a few Scriptures that indicate Christ-believers/followers are made righteous giving us “right standing with GOD.” (To strengthen this viewpoint, see I Corinthians 6:11 and Romans 8:30 – justified; set right which is what/who you areset right through Jesus Christ!)
Being in right standing with GOD also privileges us to honorably ask GOD for what it is that we desire as seen in Psalm 37:4 and Matthew 7:7-8. Therefore, for the good of the church family and for people all over the world, it is our responsibility to pray asking GOD to correct the pains, injustices and rampant violence everywhere. Wouldn’t you agree that It is our reasonable service to imitate Jesus Christ wherever we are in this world? We talked about ‘speak that thang’ last week. And, this week we are looking at ‘speaking that thang’ from another perspective. As imitators of Jesus Christ, we pray speaking to GOD asking Him to heal us and people in our families, our communities, our State, our country, and the entire world.
Since we are in right standing with GOD by the great sacrifice of Jesus Christ, then we have His Ear because He loves us as indicated in I John 4:16-17. Let’s intentionally take time learning to truly love GOD, and to recognize with open hearts that since we are spiritually born of Him, then that makes us victorious over the world.
With such victory, we can faithfully conquer the world by speaking to GOD through prayer and supplication Beloved, it is up to us to love our fellow human beings and to tell GOD about what we see and feel about their conditions. Speak and do something good every day for strangers and friends alike. It’ll touch their hearts revealing Christ to them. And, it’ll also lift your spirit. Let’s help GOD set this world right. Yes, You CAN Do It!
