GOD-TRACKING IS CALLING ON THE NAME OF JESUS!
by Dudley Anderson GodTracker 642 25 August 2017 GOD-TRACKING IS CALLING ON THE NAME OF JESUS! Romans 10:13 Tammy paused as her eyes moistened. Then she continued, “My father would enter my room late at night when the rest of the house was in darkness. Night after night he came.” She drew a deep breath through a sob. Tammy was telling her story of how, from a young age, she was abused by her father. Her mother was an alcoholic and offered no support. At the age of 17 Tammy left home. At a party one night she was introduced to drugs. “For the first time in my life I felt free of the pain. When I was high, I remembered nothing but when I came down again, the depression was overbearing,” she said. Sadly, Tammy became addicted to heroin and contracted Hepatitis B from contaminated needles. Not yet 22, Tammy had no reason to live. Fear, depression, depravity and disease consumed her. One night, Tammy was planning to take her own life, but she was away from home. Needing a ride back, she’d called her mother. As they drove back to her one-room apartment, an old song was playing on a Christian station on the radio: Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in his wonderful face, and the things of the earth will grow strangely dim in the light of his glory and grace. Tammy now sat, sobbing, on the edge of the bath. She held the grey 9 mill in her hand. But, those words burned within with more intensity than its hot bullet ever could: the things of the earth will grow strangely dim in the light of his glory and grace. “Dear Jesus, help me!” she cried. A true story I once heard, told by a lovely lady called, Tammy. The grace of God and the love of Christ had won the day, that day when Tammy called on the name of Jesus. She had put the gun down and cried out to the Lord she had learned about in Sunday School. Gradually peace filled her heart and miraculously she was delivered from heroin addiction. God did such a great work in Tammy that she was even healed of Hepatitis B; doctors could find no trace of the virus in her body. Today, Tammy shares the love of Jesus everywhere she goes. She says, “Only one person can change your life, and that’s Jesus.” The Scriptures tell us, there is no other name by which we can be saved; saved from fear, depression, depravity and disease. It tells us that the name of Jesus Christ is greater than any other name in heaven, on earth or under the earth. Whatever your calamity, whatever your history, whatever your fear, depression, depravity or disease, call on that name, today. God-tracking is calling on the name of Jesus!
