Free, it is Free.

God gave us everything free of cost
Just imagine what will happen if God woud have tagged a price for oxygen we breathe? Or if God tagged a price for water we drink?
Though we humans sell it for money; God has given us many things for free and these free things are eternal
Lets read in our bibles now;

  • Free will
John:7:17 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)
17 If any man desires to do His will (God’s pleasure),
 he will know (have the needed illumination to recognize, 
 and can tell for himself) whether the teaching is from God 
 or whether I am speaking from Myself 
 and of My own accord and on My own authority.
  • Free Gift:
Romans:5:15-17

15 But God’s free gift is not at all to be compared to the trespass 
  [His grace is out of all proportion to the fall of man].
  For if many died through one man’s falling away (his lapse, his offense),
  much more profusely did God’s grace and 
  the free gift [that comes] through the undeserved favor
  of the one Man Jesus Christ abound and
  overflow to and for [the benefit of] many.

16 Nor is the free gift at all to be compared 
  to the effect of that one [man’s] sin.
  For the sentence [following the trespass] of one
  [man] brought condemnation, whereas the free gift
  [following] many transgressions brings justification 
  ([j]an act of righteousness).

17 For if because of one man’s trespass
  (lapse, offense) death reigned through that one,
  much more surely will those who receive
  [God’s] overflowing grace (unmerited favor)
  and the free gift of righteousness 
  [putting them into right standing with Himself]
  reign as kings in life through the one Man Jesus Christ
  (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
  • Free Inheritance:
Galatians:3:18

18 For if the inheritance [of the promise depends on observing]
  the Law [as these false teachers would like you to believe],
  it no longer [depends] on the promise; however,
  God gave it to Abraham [as a free gift solely] by virtue of His promise.
  • Free Salvation and Free Grace:
Ephesians:2:7,8

7 He did this that He might clearly demonstrate
 through the ages to come the immeasurable (limitless, surpassing)
 riches of His free grace (His unmerited favor)
 in [His] kindness and goodness of heart toward us in Christ Jesus.

8 For it is by free grace (God’s unmerited favor)
  that you are saved 
  ([c]delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation)
  through [your] faith. 
  And this [salvation] is not of yourselves
  [of your own doing, it came not through your own striving],
  but it is te gift of God;
  • Free Access to God
Ephesians:3:11-13

11 This is in accordance with the terms of the eternal
  and timeless purpose which He has realized and carried
  into effect in [the person of] Christ Jesus our Lord,

12 In Whom, because of our faith in Him,
   we dare to have the boldness (courage and confidence)
   of free access 
   (an unreserved approach to God with freedom and without fear).

13 So I ask you not to lose heart
   [not to faint or become despondent through fear]
   at what I am suffering in your behalf. 
   [Rather glory in it] for it is an honor to you.
  • Free water of Life:
Revelation:22:17 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMP)

17 The [Holy] Spirit and the bride
  (the church, the true Christians) say,
  Come! And let him who is listening say,
  Come! And let everyone come who is thirsty
  [who is painfully conscious of his need
  of those things by which the soul is refreshed, 
  supported, and strengthened]; 
  and whoever [earnestly] desires to do it,
  let him come, take, appropriate, 
  and drink the water of Life without cost.

There was a man who wanted to go to another country in search of a job, but he had no other options but to travel in a ship; so he some how gained some money to buy the ticket to ride in that ship.

ship

The day of departure had come and he bid farewell to his friends and family.
When he went to the ship he noticed all the people were happy and some where singing, some started to read books, some went to dance, and as you know there are many entertainment in the ship because it takes a many days even months to reach the destination.
So, our friend as soon as he boarded the ship found a nice place near the side of the ship so he was enjoying the nature.

But when it was time to have dinner he did not go the dining hall because he did not have enough money to buy food for himself so he just simply quit it.
Next day our friend was so much hungry he cannot control his hunger; so he went to his bed and cried and cried thinking his poverty.
He prayed to Jesus to help him in this situation; then he slept.Free it is free

That night the captain of that ship came to meet the passengers and when he came to our friend; the captain said Mr. why are you so sad are you not feeling well?
Our friend replied Sir, I am alright, thanks for your concern
Captain: Are you enjoying the trip?
Our friend said with tears in his eyes But Sir, actually,…Sir I have no money to buy food so I just came here to sleep.
Captain said: If that is the case can I have your ticket please;
Our friend gave him the ticket; the captain said well; this is your ticket only,Did you saw the back side of your ticket?
He said No,sir.
MR. When you got your ticket you have paid money for both travelling and food just turn it sir, the ticket has free food because it is already paid; so you do not need to pay now.
Can you imagine how our friend would have felt and what could have been his immediate reaction?
God has given us many things for free it is our duty to claim it for oursleves and our family.

Mercy me, Lord

Billy had recently built a church in order to preach the gospel to those who stood in need of its saving power. The chapel had been substantially built and completely furnished except for one very special piece of equipment — A PULPIT.

Completely undaunted, Billy set out to find the pulpit that he believed the Lord had laid up for him somewhere in that town in which he lived, but no pulpit was apparently forthcoming.

He happened into the local auction rooms, and as he strolled among the rows of discarded furniture his eyes fell on two large corner cabinets, beautifully carved and greatly resembling the pulpits in many of the Methodist chapels in Billy’s day.

“If I could just lay my hands on one of those cabinets,” he thought to himself, “I could cut a space in the side, hang a door over the space, put a Bible board on the top, and I would have my pulpit.”

Billy ran to the auctioneer. “How much do you reckon these cabinets will fetch?” he asked the man. On being told the likely price, Billy fumbled in his pocket and discovered that he had just enough cash to secure one of them for his chapel. “Mercy me,” he thought himself, “the Lord has given it into my hand.”

Next day was auction day and Billy hurried along to the sale. Soon it came the turn of the corner cabinets to go under the hammer.

Billy was so convinced that he would have the piece that he held his money at the ready, but, his heart sank as the bidding rose higher and higher, and far and above, out of his reach.

“Oh well,” he thought again, “the Lord must intend me to have the other one.” But, again, he was doomed to disappointment, for, the second cabinet, too, fetched far more than Billy could offer.

Somewhat at a loss for an explanation as to what the Lord was performing at this particular time, Billy absent-mindedly followed the purchaser of the second corner cabinet out of the auction rooms where the “valuable” piece was loaded on to a small barrow and trundled up a hill to its new owner’s home.

Billy followed!

On reaching the front door of the house, the man turned the cabinet, first this way, and then, that, in an effort to get it through the space, but to no avail. The back door was no more accommodating and the man bad-temperedly announced to his wife that he was going to “chop the thing up for firewood.”

“Please sir,” said Billy, stepping forward from viewing the proceedings, “If it would be more profitable for you to sell the cabinet again, I’ll gladly offer you what I’ve got in my pocket for it.”

“It’s a bargain,” said the man, “and on top of it, I’ll take it on my barrow to wherever you want to have it.”

How Billy danced with joy as the barrow was trundled back down the hill again towards the chapel with him dancing by its side.

“Mercy me, Lord,” he sang, “Mercy me; you knowed that I could never have carried that old cabinet from the auction rooms to the chapel by myself and so, Ye arranged to have it delivered for me. Mercy me!”

Is there way to reach God when I have sinned against him?

Hi friends Jesus loves you

He is more interested in you

He will not cast you away because you have sinned against him

But he longs to hug you and kiss you he expects only one thing from you that you come to him saying Abba father I have sinned against you please accept me as I am

My friend will you come jumping and running to God now

Whatever sin that threatens you now and tells you you are not worthy you are a sinner

My friend reply to it with your heart open to God and open mouth yes I am a sinner that is why I go to Jesus

Jesus Christ came to this world for sinners not for righteous so you are qualified to go to God now

Today is the day when you can be free

Believe and commit your life to God

Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened, and I will cause you to rest. [I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls.]

Matthew: 11:28

“I will get up and go to my father”

Hello friends (Welcome to Glory to God site)

I would just like to ask you to remember the day when you said; “I will get up and go to my father”

Yes, I hope you understand the meaning of that phrase; the day when you came to Jesus and said “Lord, I Love You and Accept you”

When I think of that day my heart cherishes and I am so happy and tears of Joy flows from my eyes and my spirit rejoices 

Maturity in spiritual life is important and also it is necessary to remember your first love to Jesus

Everyone of us has lived a sinful life maybe the extent could differ but yet we have all sinned and lost the glory of God 

But; there was a time when my friends ,my family could not help me and I was in a great need of a break through, I had no way out 

It was a time when my spirit whispered to me Do you remember the love of God that once we had; the love that filled us; the love that was always following us, even when we rejected it and forgot about it 

My spirit started to shout at me and cried and said “I want my savior back” 

I cannot live without Him

So, I decided to search for that love; which I thought, I had lost 

But the truth is I was lost so when I searched with all my heart and strength and spirit the love said “I am with you always, I will never leave you nor forsake you, I have not left you even in those times but you missed to realize that I was around you.”

But yet I have the same Love for you 

Jesus became more real to me and I love him

This is the exact story that Jesus told to the people and disciples when He was in this world as a man


Luke:15:11-24

Then He said, “A certain man had two sons.  

images (2)

 

The younger of them[inappropriately] said to his father, ‘Father, give me the share of the property that falls to me.’ So he divided the estate between them. 

 

A few days later, the younger son gathered together everything [that he had] and traveled to a distant country, and there he wasted his fortune in reckless and immoral living. Rembrandt_-_De_Poolse_ruiter,_c.1655_(Frick_Collection) 

Now when he had spent everything, a severe famine occurred in that country, and he began to do without and be in need. So he went and forced himself on one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to [a]feed pigs.  He would have gladly eaten the [carob] pods that the pigs were eating [but they could not satisfy his hunger], and no one was giving anything to him.But when he [finally] came to his senses, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired men have more than enough food, while I am dying here of hunger!  I will get up and go to my father, and I will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight. I am no longer worthy to be called your son; [just] treat me like one of your hired men.”’ So he got up and came to his father.

But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion for him, and ran and embraced him and kissed him. And the son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight; I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ But the father said to his servants, ‘Quickly bring out the best robe [for the guest of honor] and put it on him; and give him a [b]ring for his hand, and sandals for his feet. And bring the fattened calf and slaughter it, and let us [invite everyone and] feast and celebrate;  for this son of mine was [as good as] dead and is alive again; he was lost and has been found.’ So they began to celebrate.


What Jesus Expects from us is the time we utter these words form our heart soul and spirit ;

I will get up and go to my father, and I will say to him,“Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight. I am no longer worthy to be called your son;”


Jesus will surely accept us.

Because He is waiting for you to say this 

Are you ready?
