ANTIDOTE TO CRISIS

Romans Chapter 5: 3-4
We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance.   And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation.

Are you lost,alone & have no place to turn for help?  There is someone you can turn to in your darkest moment.  His name is Jesus Christ.  The Bible says, "Come unto me, all ye who labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28
  On August 13, 1995 I found myself lost and hurting in the darkest moment of my life with no where to turn.   I cried out to God and ask Him to give me a sign and prove to me that He was real.  When I dried my eyes from my tears I saw a sign at the intersection of the Interstate that read "Christ is the Answer."  God proved to me that day that He was not only real but He had the answer for any problem or dilemma that I had or would ever have.  This life is full of problems, trials, and misery and many have gotten caught up in the   coronavirus panic.  The greatest weapon we have for fear is faith. I want to encourage you to take up the whole armor of God for your protection.  Read Ephesians Chapter 6: 10-20 we can be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.  Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. We are in a war right now and we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual host of wickedness in the heavenly places.  

  So take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand this virus attack. We have the Antidote to this crisis,  "Christ is the Answer!!" 
 Do you have confidence in your salvation?  If not, then I want to lead you in a prayer that will give you the confidence and endurance that you need.  
​
Pray this prayer with me; Heavenly Father, I invite Jesus Christ into my life as my Lord and Savior.  I believe Jesus Christ died for my sins and was raised from the dead on the third day.  His blood was shed so that I could be forgiven and I surrender my life to you Jesus and I accept You as my Lord from this moment forward.  I receive the forgiveness of sins through your shed blood, Jesus.  Take out my old heart, Lord give me a new heart, a new spirit, a new life and I will follow you, with your help, by your grace, all the days of my life, in Jesus name, amen.
