“For there is no distinction between Jew or Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:12-13
Two nights ago, one girl cried out to the Lord to come into her life. She was broken and repented of the sinful life that she had led and became born again in the spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Becoming born again is something that we all have to attain to assure ourselves that we are going to heaven. It is not a direct physical rebirth but it is a spiritual rebirth. This rebirth is the most important part of our existence because it allows Jesus Christ; who died for all sins; to come into our lives.
Two years and fifteen days ago was the day that I asked Jesus to come into my life. I saw the meaning of life and could not live it alone. I needed a Savior, a King and a best friend to save me from the life that I was in.
I get teary eyed every time I think of that moment because it was the greatest day of my life. It was the day that every single person can attest to in my life where I became a different person. I ran away from the lustful life that I was engulfed in. I was convicted of my drinking problem. I became aware that money was my god. I was unveiled to my selfish ambitions in life and most of all I saw that Love was who Jesus was and is.
The reason that I go into this is because every time I am given a chance to share the Gospel of Christ, I remember the day that I was saved. I remember that it was the beginning of a new life.
Two nights ago I sat at the open air outreach crying out to the Lord in prayer for all those that were hearing the Word of God from one of the racers. Everything seemed to be coming against us at that moment as Mormon missionaries circled the event, kids screamed out of control and our translator seemed to forget his language.
If you know me, I have a huge heart for Mormons. The second that I saw them I wanted to talk with them but every time that I stood up, it was as if the Lord just sat me right back down. The word that I kept getting was that my job was intercession. As soon as all the commotion seemed to wind down, I hear my name called out from the loud speaker. Chad can you come assist!
I jumped to my feet as I realized why the Lord had kept me in that spot. I hit the stage and I gave the gospel with all of my heart. The translator seemed to remember his language again and the distractions seemed to die down. The Lord was moving and calling His children to him. One bold woman came to the front weeping for her Father to come into her life.
This woman is now connected with a church that is 100% in love with Jesus Christ. I am overjoyed that the Lord has brought us to partner with Christian Center of Omeptepe and know that He will continue to move in miraculous ways.
God Bless
