Who will be saved?



Have you ever wondered who will be saved? Or have you asked yourself if you will be saved? If you are interested in knowing also, then we share the same curiosity. Just tonight, the LORD JESUS has answered my curiosity. He revealed to me who will be saved and what attitudes we should develop in order for us to be saved.

Two hours ago, while I was contemplating on what to write for this blog, I had this very interesting and important revelation from the LORD JESUS. He told me that only those people who know and consider themselves as His slaves, have a servant's heart, act like one, and walk humbly with Him will earn a seat in His kingdom. He doesn't like those who are proud. He opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble (James 4:6). He reminded me of this verse in Matthew 23:12 which say, “For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

Being humble is knowing that you are just a mere creation of the LORD JESUS and you belong to Him who is your Master, and is greater than you. It is also acknowledging that we are sinners who need forgiveness and mercy of our LORD. That is why we should repent, turn to Him, and submit to His lordship. In case you do not know, the LORD JESUS is humble too. He said this in Matthew 11:29, “Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” Therefore, He wants us to be like Him. Let us meditate on this verse found in Ephesians 5:1-2 which say, “Therefore be imitators of GOD as beloved children. And walk in love as CHRIST loved us and gave Himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to GOD.”

Humility means acknowledging the fact that we can do nothing without the help and guidance of our LORD JESUS. The LORD JESUS says this in John 15:5, “I am the vine, you are the branches. If you remain in Me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” Humility also means submitting to JESUS' lordship, honoring Him and acknowledging Him as the Most High GOD, and having the fear of committing sin. Servants fear their Master, as a result, they are quick to listen and quick to obey. They are completely surrendered to their Master's will and they don't think of their own happiness but the happiness of their Master. They don't think of themselves. They always think of the well-being of their Master first. We should imitate them. For us to be humble, the LORD JESUS reminded us of this verse in Romans 12:3 which say, For by the grace given to me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.” Also, keep this verse in Romans 12:16 in mind which say, “Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, snobbish or high minded, but readily adjust yourself to people and things and do humble tasks. Do not overestimate yourself or be wise in your own conceits.”

Therefore, let us consider ourselves as LORD JESUS' slaves, develop a humble attitude, have a submissive heart, fear the LORD, and become quick to listen and obey so that we will be saved. Thank you so much, my dear reader, for taking your time reading this article. May you be blessed with an obedient, submissive, and thankful heart. I love you with the love of the LORD. God bless you. LORD JESUS, thank You so much for revealing this words of wisdom to me. I love You so much. All glory, honor, highest praises, and thanksgiving belong to You, my LORD. Amen.

Is JESUS our GOD?

Have you ever asked yourself who JESUS is? And, have you ever wondered if He is our GOD?  If your answer is yes, then this article is for you. By the way, I used to believe that the LORD JESUS is just the Son of GOD and not GOD Himself. But, after attending some church services in a Christian Pentecostal church in college, I started to question who the real GOD is and what is His Name. Fortunately, last night that question was answered and revealed to me by the LORD JESUS. As I was reading an article about baby JESUS on the Bible app for kids which is called Superbook, I ran across a verse found in 1 Corinthians 12:3 which says tbis, "So I want you to know that no one speaking by the Spirit of God will curse JESUS, and no one can say JESUS is LORD, except by the HOLY SPIRIT." We can learn from this Bible verse that JESUS is our One and Only True Living GOD. And, no one can confess that He is GOD except when the person is guided by the Holy Spirit. On the other han...

The Gift of Salvation: The True Meaning of Christmas

Christmas is fast approaching and some people think Christmas is about receiving gifts. They think about the presents, the decorations, and the parties. They are missing out on what Christmas is really about. The true meaning of Christmas is the gift of salvation. It's about knowing that the world is full of despair and knowing that there is someone out there waiting to save you. It's about not being alone. It's about waiting for someone to come and show you the true meaning of Christmas. And only JESUS has made the biggest move to save us from all the troubles that we experience everyday. The true meaning of Christmas is the gift of salvation. This is the reason why the Christmas tree is decorated with evergreen and holly, because these plants represent eternal life. The Christmas tree is also decorated with other greenery because it represents the nature of the world. The Christmas tree is decorated with lights and ornaments, because they represent the light o...

What is JESUS’ will for us?

I spent my life looking for answers on what is JESUS’ will for me and what should I do with my life. I yearn for a happy, content and fulfilled life and I have this deep longing inside me for a better purpose. Until one night, while I was praying JESUS revealed to me His will. He told me that His will is to save us because He loves us so much. Check this verse in  1 Timothy 2:3-4 which say, “This is good and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.” Since JESUS’ ultimate will is to save us, He wants us to receive His gift of salvation. We first have to believe that He died on the cross to save us from hell and sin. We should as well make a firm decision to turn away from sin and obey Him. Then we should establish a loving and faithful relationship with Him above others. Take note of this verse in Matthew 22:37-38 which say, “ And he said to him,   “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with a...
