him, Behold, thou art made whole:
sin no more, lest a worse thing
come unto thee (John 5:14). Jesus
never told people to do something
they couldn’t do without providing
them the power they needed to do it.
People can live free from sin through
the power of the divine blood and the
power of the Holy Ghost if they want
to. If they choose not to, they can
expect even worse consequences to
come upon their life.
You Must Be Born Again
12
Jesus answered and said unto
him Nicodemus, Verily, verily, I
say unto thee, Except a man be
born again, he cannot see the
kingdom of God (John 3:3). The
born-again experience is not being
physically reborn but spiritually
reborn. Your inner man, not your
outer man, is reborn and made new
through the power in the divine blood
of Jesus.
When Jesus was on Earth, He
performed many wonderful miracles—
healing all manner of sickness and
disease, walking the waters, calming
the angry seas, multiplying the
loaves and fishes, delivering the devil
possessed and so much more—but the
greatest miracle was the miracle of
salvation. There is no greater miracle
than when men, women, boys or girls
humble themselves before Him; and
He forgives them of their sins and
makes them new. Then they have the
power to go forth free from sin.
The power over all sin was born
over 2000 years ago in Bethlehem,
yet so many who profess to be
Christians deny the Virgin Birth. That
is deceit because they are denying
the divinity of Jesus Christ and the
power in His divine blood. That leaves
them with only a form of godliness
that Paul spoke of. Having a form
of godliness, but denying the
power thereof: from such turn
away (II Timothy 3:5).
Find Jesus Today
People today are forever searching
for God’s reality and power and His
miracle supply, and they continually
come up lacking. They never find
Jesus for their needs even though the
Word of God declares, My God shall
supply all your need according to
his riches in glory by Christ Jesus
(Philippians 4:19). Many people need
to stop in their tracks and examine
the path they are traveling. Are they
following in the footsteps of Jesus and
living like Him, or is there sin in their
life? Have they truly taken up their
cross and denied self?
When you walk in the footsteps
of Jesus, the Lord becomes easy to
find. The Word says, Draw nigh to
God, and he will draw nigh to you
(James 4:8). But you must make
the first move to search Him out and
draw nigh unto Him.
Friend, are you following in the
footsteps of Jesus? When you look
into the mirror of God’s Word, do
you see the reflection of Jesus or the
reflection of your selfish ways and
desires? Do you see the image of
Jesus and God’s true righteousness
and holiness or an image of sin and
disobedience?
If there is anything in your life
unlike Jesus, there is power in His
divine blood to set you free and
give you a new life. Say the sinner’s
prayer located on page 6 of this
magazine, and that divine blood will
set your feet on a new path that leads
to Heaven.
