Jesus, I Want To Come Home

"Jesus, I want to come home!" - that is what we all say with our hearts when we accept Him as our Lord and Savior. We were deep into sin and we had no real solution for our troubles, and then we had a revelation of Jesus Christ! Someone talked to us about Him, or we heard a sermon in church or on tv, maybe it was radio program and you heard the testimony of someone who was struggling just like you, and their words touched your heart.



Did you know that your confession of faith in God is something very special in God's eyes; you touched His heart when you said "yes" to his invitation. It was a miracle that only God could have done; human beings are very broken, weak, and hard hearted, we live to obey our own desires, and we must learn to be selfless and compassionate.

Matthew Chapter 19 16-2



16 Just then a man came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?”



17 “Why do you ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”



18 “Which ones?” he inquired.



Jesus replied, “‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, 19 honor your father and mother,’ and ‘love your neighbor as yourself.’”



20 “All these I have kept,” the young man said. “What do I still lack?”



21 Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”



22 When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.



23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven.



24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”



25 When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”



26 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

What was Jesus saying here? He was not saying that the rich could not be saved, but that He is the only way that they could be saved. It was not that the rich man wasn't a 'good' person, it was that he allowed His wealth to blind Him to the Real Treasure in this life, Jesus Christ, and it is only by the power and authority of the Lord that any of us wake up from our slumber and see His light.

I just saw a video about a woman who tried to witness to a homeless atheist. She told Him that she did not have any money, but she wanted to give Him a bible, but He refused to take it. She tried to leave one near Him, but He told her to take it away, and give it to someone who could use it! Somewhere, in the recesses of his heart, he knew that the Word of God was real, that it was the truth, and yet he chose to refuse it for himself; that is why there are many 'good' people in hell, who believed their 'goodness' would get them into heaven, but how could they get to heaven if they never knew God or His Son, Jesus Christ?

Please listen, you must know the way to heaven, you must seek Him with all of your heart, and accept His Son, Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, for the time is growing short; no one will be able to seek Him out once He comes for His church and He leaves the rebels and the unbelievers here with the devil and his demons for the final judgement.



He protects this world right now with His love, and His Holy Spirit will not leave until every child of God has been collected from the four corners of our world.



I can say with faith and belief that this time of favor and grace is quickly running out, so there is only one very important thing that you must do right now:

Look up to heaven, and say with all of your heart, "Jesus, I want to come home!"
