To Know About Jesus Four things God wants ME to KNOW
I am saved 1. I am SAVED
He who believes in the Son
has eternal life John 3:36 If I believe on Jesus, I have everlasting life. I know because God says so in His Word. 2.I can overcome the TEMPTATION There has no temptation taken you, but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted abouve that you are able: but will with the temptation also make a way to escape that you may be able to bear it 1 Corinthians 10:13 "No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man…"
Other believers are tempted with the same
things that tempt me. "God is faithful…"
• God always does what He says He will do.
• God always keeps His word. • I can count on the fact that God is faithful. "Who will not allow you to be tempted above that you are able…"
God promises that He will never let
me be tempted more than what I can handle. But will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it."
God will always make a way for me to
escape out of temptation, so that I do not have to sin. As long as I am in the world, I will be tempted. But temptation is not sin. Jesus was tempted by Satan, but He did not sin. I sin only when I give in to temptation. 3. He will FORGIVE when I SIN "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9). What should I do when I sin?
• TELL Him that I am SORRY for what I did
• CONFESS my sins to God • He FORGIVES me • MAKES me clean again BECAUSE Jesus died for my sins. No matter how many times I sin, God promises to forgive me when I confess my sins to Him. God’s love for me never changes. 4.He hears and answers my prayers. "Casting all your care upon Him; for He cares for you" (1 Peter 5:7).
