The Lord has Sent You an Invitation to Heaven -- Will You Accept It?

Did you know that God has already sent a special invitation to you? He doesn't require that you dress up to approach Him or turn over a new leaf to impress Him. You can come just as you are. Yet this is the most important invitation you will ever receive.

The Lord had His invitation placed in Isaiah 55:6: "Seek ye the Lord while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near". Jesus Himself invites you in Matthew 11:28, "Come unto me, ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest".

Are you afraid to come to Him, fearful that you won't measure up? The truth is, He already knows each of us inside and out--our strengths and potential, our fears and weaknesses. He also knows all the things that we would like to hide from Him...and from the rest of the world! Yet God, who is totally pure and holy and who hates our sins, still loves us. He wants us to turn in belief to Him "from darkness to light... that [we] may receive forgiveness of sins". Jesus said in John 8:12, "I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life".

To make forgiveness possible while still meeting the demands of justice, God's perfect Son, Jesus Christ, died in our place. We no longer have to suffer the punishment we deserve for our sins. Instead, Jesus promises in John 5:24 that "He that heareth my word, and believeth on Him that sent me, hath eternal life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life", from sin's darkness to God's eternal light!

God invites you to enjoy new life in His family, beginning the moment you trust Him as your Savior: John 1:12 says, "But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name". Will you receive Him into your life now--or will you risk missing all He offers you for eternity?

God is inviting you. How will you respond?

If you are willing to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation, please pray with me the following simple prayer: Heavenly Father, I realize that I am a sinner and that I have done some bad things in my life. For Jesus Christ sake, please forgive me of my sins. I now believe with all of my heart that Jesus Christ died for me, was buried, and rose again. Lord Jesus, please come into my heart and save my soul and change my life today. Amen.   

Congratulations on doing the most important thing in life and that is accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour!
