Jesus is the Great I am of it...(seven statements of Jesus being the I am)

Jesus can create whatever you may need…

Jesus said unto them, I am the Bread of life: he that cometh to Me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on Me shall never thirst...John 6:35…but whosoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall become in him a well of water springing up unto eternal life...John 4:14

 

Jesus is the door into the safety of the sheepfold…

Jesus therefore said unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the Door of the sheep. All that came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. I am the Door; by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and go out, and shall find pasture. The thief cometh not, but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly...John 10:7-10

 

Jesus is the Light of the world which shines in the darkness created by the evil one…

Again therefore Jesus spake unto them, saying, I am the Light of the world: he that follows Me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life...John 8:12

 

Jesus is the Truth the source of all Truth which created all things created…

Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way (The Path to God), and the Truth (Source of all Truth), and the Life (Eternal Life given with God): no one cometh unto the Father, but by Me...John 14:6

 

Jesus is the good shepherd who laid down His life to supply the needs of His sheep…

I am the Good shepherd: the Good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep. He that is a hireling, and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, beholds the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and flees and the wolf snatches them, and scatters them: he flees because he is a hireling, and cares not for the sheep. I am the Good shepherd; and I know mine own, and mine own know Me, even as the Father knows Me, and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep...John 10:11-15.

 

Jesus is the Resurrection of new life…

Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth on Me, though he die, yet shall he live; and whosoever lives and believeth on Me shall never die. Believe you this? ...John 11:25-26.

 

Jesus is the True Vine…

I am the Vine, you are the branches: He that abides in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit: for apart from Me you can do nothing. If a man abide not in Me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If you abide in Me, and my words abide in you, ask whatsoever you will, and it shall be done unto you...John 15:5-7.

 

Have you been born of the water and the Spirit…yes or no?

Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except one be born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, You must be born anew. The wind blows where it will, and you hear the voice thereof, but knowest not whence it cometh, and whither it goes: so is every one that is born of the Spirit...John 3:5-8. And Peter said unto them, Repent you, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him...Acts 2:38-39.

 

After Jesus was raised from the dead he came to His 11 disciples…

And afterward he was manifested unto the eleven themselves as they sat at meat; and he upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them that had seen him after he was risen. And he said unto them, Go you into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieves (chooses to ignore or not to the do the will of God in order to be saved) shall be condemned...Mark 16:14-16.

 

Jesus is the Judgment Seat…

For to this end Christ died and lived again, that He might be Lord of both the dead and the living. But you, why dost you judge thy brother? or you again, why dost you set at nought (make your brother nothing) thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of God. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, to me every knee shall bow, And every tongue shall confess to God. So then each one of us shall give account of himself to God...Romans 14:9-12. …and to you that are afflicted rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with the angels of His power in flaming fire, rendering vengeance to them that know not God, and to them that obey not the gospel (good news Jesus died and was raised so you will never have to choose an immoral deed) of our Lord Jesus: who shall suffer punishment, even eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of His might, when He shall come to be glorified in His saints, and to be marveled at in all them that believed (because our testimony unto you was believed) in that day...2 Thessalonians 1:7-10.

 

Are you prepared…if you were to die today…would you pass through the Door…or are you already in the sheepfold and remaining faithful…yes or no?

 

Prayer

Father who is in Heaven…please create through Jesus whatever we may need for our soul to remain faithful and our needs be supplied so our soul may proser and be in health…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

We are all just children in diapers before God...

We are all just children in diapers before God…

In that hour came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And He called to Him a little child, and set him in the midst of them, and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye turn, and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven…Matthew 18:1-4.

 

Which one of us can look at God and say why have you made me this way…we all must be like the child and say teach me better…I am but in diapers before You the Almighty please reveal the truth to me so I can learn to be like You…Daddy…Abba.

 

If you adopt (receive) a Child for Jesus then you receive Jesus…

And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receives Me: but whoso shall cause one of these little ones that believe on Me to stumble, it is profitable for him that a great millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be sunk in the depth of the sea...(to die rather than to tempt a believer) Matthew 18:5-6. Wherefore let him that thinketh he stands take heed lest he fall. There hath no temptation taken you but such as man (any in mankind) can bear: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that ye may be able to endure it. Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry...1 Corinthians 10:12-14.

 

Will you receive your own kids in your household in Jesus name by teaching them the truth about Jesus being the only way of salvation…yes or no?

You cannot be the tempter teaching children (believers) to sin or make them fall and please God…it betrays innocent and causes you to shed “innocent blood”. Any believer which falls…it causes Jesus to bleed more for them because they fell…or perhaps they never return from the false teaching or perhaps they will learn the truth and be saved. Whosoever goes onward and abides (lives it out) not in the teaching of Christ, hath not God: he that abides (lives) in the teaching, the same hath both the Father and the Son...2 John 1:9.

 

Having Jesus means you will have the necessities of life…

Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to Me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on Me shall never thirst...John 6:35. But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, shall He not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles (unbelievers) seek; for your heavenly Father knows that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first His kingdom, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Be not therefore anxious (worried) for the morrow (future): for the morrow (future day) will be anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof...Matthew 6:30-34.

 

If you change your now then you change your future…get the first things right and the big things you worry with will work out…obey Jesus in the little things called the truth and He will handle the big things. Do you want to go to heaven and have Jesus as the Good Shepherd looking after your soul…yes or no?

 

Jesus can create you whatever you may need…

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The Same was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him; and without Him was not anything made that hath been made. In Him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in the darkness; and the darkness apprehended (comprehended) it not...John 1:1-5. All things have been delivered unto Me of my Father: and no one knows the Son, save the Father; neither doth any know the Father, save the Son, and He to whomsoever the Son wills to reveal Him. Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke (Teaching of the truth which sets you free from evil) upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek (obedient) and lowly (humble) in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke (truth) is easy, and my burden is light...Matthew 11:27-30. For it became Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the Author of their salvation perfect through sufferings…Hebrews 2:10.

 

Jesus suffered the scourging, the death of the cross and was raised from the dead in order to be The Author of Salvation. Have you asked the Good Shepherd of souls to Author you a plan of redemption, reconciliation with God and a plan of salvation…yes or no?

 

Prayer

Our Father who is in Heaven…please meet our needs we know You know what we need more than the things we worry about…please continue to raise us in Christ just like children in diapers…In Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

A test…are you self righteous…do you have faith...

A test…are you self righteous…


And he spake also this parable unto certain who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and set all others at nought (nothing):

…Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee (preacher), and the other a publican (government employee…politician).


The actions of the Pharisee…the preacher…

The Pharisee stood and prayed thus (this way) with himself, God,…I thank thee, that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners (those which require service through forcible or political means), unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican (a traitor to Jews…a roman employee).

(Listen to his resume)…I fast twice in the week; I give tithes (a tenth) of all that I get.


The actions of the Jewish publican…

…But the publican (a Jew which could only feed himself by being a roman government employee), standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote his breast, saying,

(The publican’s resume)…God, be thou merciful to me a sinner (traitor).

I say unto you, This man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalts himself shall be humbled; but he that humbles himself shall be exalted.


Jesus teaching in the same setting of how a child should receive the Kingdom of God…

…And they were bringing unto him (Jesus) also their babes, that he (Jesus) should touch them: but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked (forbade) them. But Jesus called them unto him, saying,

…Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall in no wise enter therein...Luke 18:9-17.


Do you seek position with man or do you seek God’s service…

Are the self-righteous…thinking your past resume will get you into Heaven Or are you a sinner who needs to be taught how not to sin and is looking for forgiveness?


The self-righteous was thinking his works was all he needed…he was not seeking God or forgiveness but believed he had already won the entrance into Heaven…he was not asking God to meet his needs spiritually but was “reminding” God how much he sacrificed for God’s service. Whereas the publican…knew he needed God or else he would not make it…notice the text said…the Pharisee prayed with himself…he was so full of self, God would not entertain his prayer…the publican was just the opposite he came to the temple to seek God and to learn better.


Jesus said to his disciples in the same setting to receive the kingdom of God like a child…going daddy bless me I know not what is good for me…this was the intentions of the parents…humble opinion…like saying please bless them.


Do you seek God like a child…looking to God to learn and be forgiven…yes or no?


Prayer

Father please bless us so we not offend You in word or deed…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
