Finding Strength In Jehovah God Through His Son Jesus Christ

“O Lord, you have searched me and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely, O Lord”.

The psalmist continues, “You hem me in–behind and before; you have laid your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain. Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to heaven you are there; If I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. If I say ‘Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become the night around me,’ even darkness will not be dark to you. For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb”.

The psalmist concludes by saying, “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! Away from me, you bloodthirsty men! They speak of you with evil intent; your adversaries misuse your name. Do I hate those who hate you, O Lord, and abhor those who rise up against you? I have nothing but hatred for them; I count them as my enemies. Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive ways in me, and lead me in the way of everlasting” (Psalms 139:1-24).

The heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, bladder, and brain, are just some of the many organs and systems that help to make up the human body. The human body had a master designer and creator that formed us in such a way until the psalmist was moved to say ‘…I am fearfully and wonderfully made.’ Jehovah God (Yahweh/YHWH), is our great and awe inspiring creator who created us in such a grand way until no one to this date has been able to completely understand the workings of the human body…and that’s putting it modestly.

When a child is conceived no one understands how he/she is formed in the womb. No one. There are very intelligent men who have sought to find out how a baby is formed in the womb and no one fully understands to this day. No one has been able to explain what all take place in the development of a fetus. It is simply amazing and truly unknowable how we are created, but it is no mystery about who created us.

“Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over earth, and over all the creatures that move along the grounds’ ” (Genesis 1:26). If you believe in the “Holy Scriptures” then it is no doubt in your mind that God created man in his own image and likeness.

My point tonight is that we have been thoroughly blessed above and beyond all of God’s creation. Our very being is owed to the one true God that is creator of all things that is and ever was. As a master craftsman He and He alone is responsible for our existence; however, if you read carefully the twenty-six verse in the first chapter of Genesis it reads: ‘Let us make man in our image, in our likeness…” Who was Jehovah God speaking with and why?

The answer can be found in the book of Colossians, chapter one, verses fifteen through twenty: “He (Jesus Christ, Son of God) is the image of the invisible God, the first born over all creation. For by Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by Him and for Him. He before all things, and in Him all things hold together. For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through His blood, shed on the cross” (Colossians 1:15-20).

We live in a highly technological age like never before; computers that do calculations in a nanosecond, but as sophisticated as all the new and innovative technology that man has built, it still pales a distance second to what Almighty Jehovah God has created: the heavens and the earth is all part of His creation. The trees, plants, and animals are all part of His master creation. If you were to look at the sea and all the marvelous creatures that He created that live there, how could you not be amazed?

Satan the devil, the arch enemy of Jehovah God has sought to discredit the one true God in every way that he can; he go about falsely accusing God for all the imperfections in man and all that is wrong with the world since its creation. The definition of his name accurately describes him, for he go about slandering Jehovah God and blames all evil and wickedness on God when in reality he is the author of death; slayer of mankind, and is the true source behind all evil and wickedness.

Satan the devil is responsible for all sickness and diseases; all suffering and inhumanity; all wars and the hardships war bring, as well as hatred and death. Jehovah God is love (1John 4:8) and He created man to live and love and enjoy life. Death never entered in His heart for mankind (although He did warn Adam about the consequences of sin-death), it was His will that we live forever–not grow old and die. But through mankind own rebelliousness sin entered into the world and death is the consequence of sin.

Satan, lured Eve into rebelling against Jehovah God’s commands by accusing God of being a liar, when in fact, he was the one lying (Genesis 1:1-24). It was never God’s will that mankind live a short miserable life fill with sadness and hardships; it was God’s will that we would live and experience love, joy, and happiness and share in a loving relationship with Him. We were created for His glory; we were created to honor and worship Him above and beyond everything else.

In conclusion, although mankind is in a fallen state and has been since our first parents Adam and Eve defiantly rejected God’s command and instead followed the prince of darkness, bringing about separation from God and eventually death–both spiritual and physical.

Jehovah in His immeasurable love for mankind made provisions for sinful man to receive salvation and redemption in spite of his sins, and be reunited with Him through His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ (John 3:16).

Because of His unyielding love for mankind God sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, into the world to become a sacrifice for our sins; it was the precious blood of Jesus Christ that washed our sins away. We have been cleansed from all unrighteousness by His blood, not by anything we have done or shall do. Jesus Christ alone is responsible for our redemption-our salvation. He willingly accepted death on the cross for the remission of our sins-not His.

If you are living outside of Jesus Christ here’s an opportunity for you to receive Him as your Lord and Saviour right now. You don’t have to be in some fancy building and you don’t have to leave the comfort of your home or if you are homeless that’s quite alright too. Jesus Christ is reaching out to you right this very second and He loves you so much until He died on the cross for you and me and all of mankind.

Please pray with me: Holy Father, I come before you as humble as I can and I bow down asking for forgiveness for all my sins and transgressions that I have sinned against you Holy Father. Father, I repent of all my sins and I ask that Jesus Christ will come into my life and be my Lord and Saviour. I believe that He died on the cross for my sins and I submit wholeheartedly to you Father God. In Jesus name I pray amen.

The “Holy Scriptures” tells us in the book of Romans 10th Chapter and the 9th verse that if we confess with our mouth and believe in our heart we shall be saved. Hallelujah! Praise God Almighty! Now continue to pray and study the word of God; speaking to God from the bottom of your heart and He will give you His Holy Spirit to guide you and lead you into living a “Holy” and acceptable life before Him and man.

After receiving Jesus Christ, you need to be baptize in water in order that your sins be washed away. Please, do not neglect to do this even if you are not affiliated with a church. You can be baptize in your home or anywhere the “Holy Spirit lead you to do so. Continue to pray and Jehovah God through His Son, Jesus Christ will guide and lead you into doing God’s will. Amen.

If you received Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour earlier on but at some point in time turned back to follow Satan, allow me to extend a warm and sincere invitation for you to return to your lord and master. Jesus is a loving and forgiving saviour that extend welcoming arms to you and all that have backslid into darkness. Forgiveness is just a heartfelt prayer away.

Please pray with me: Holy Father, in the name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, I humbly ask for forgiveness for all the sins and transgressions I have knowingly and willingly committed after receiving Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour. Have mercy upon my soul and wash me again in the precious blood of the Lamb, Jesus Christ, and create in me a clean heart, and renew a right spirit within me. Amen.

May the Great God Almighty continue to keep you until we meet again. In the name of Jehovah God and our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ may the peace of God abound with you more and more each day. Amen and amen.

Note: Please understand that over time new revelations are given to me to pass on to all that take the time to read the articles/sermons that I post. Therefore, I believe it is imperative that I share these revelations to all who will listen.

In this article/sermon as with all my articles/sermons I use the name Jehovah when referring to the one true God, and I use the name Jesus Christ when referring to the Son of God. However, I want to set the record straight now, and correct this error.

The true historic name of the Father is “Yahawah” spoken in the ancient Hebrew tongue; Jehovah is a translation of that name. Jesus Christ is a modern day misinterpretation of the messiah “Yahawashi”. It is important that we learn to call upon the true name of the Father and the Son. Thank you.

This sermon can be used by all churches, individuals, and organizations that carry the gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; however, this sermon; body of work, cannot be reproduced in part without the express written consent of the author. This sermon cannot be used for sale and/or profit.
