THE PLACE WHERE JESUS CHRIST IS LORD
Ambassador for Christ Ministries, Inc.
1 John 4:13-21 NIV
13/ This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit. 14/ And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. 15/ If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God. 16/ And so we know and rely on the love God has for us.
God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. 17/ This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. 18/ There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. 19/ We love because he first loved us. 20/ Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen. 21/ And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister.
MATTHEW 20:26-28 KJV 26/ ............whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; 27/ And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: 28/ Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
MATTHEW 25:34-40 NKJV* 34/ Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: 35/ for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; 36/ was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’ 37/ “Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? 38/ When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? 39/ Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40/ And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’
LOVE IN ACTION
1/ I love the LORD, for he heard my voice;
he heard my cry for mercy.
2/ Because he turned his ear to me,
I will call on him as long as I live.
8/ For you, LORD, have delivered me from death,
my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling,
9/ that I may walk before the LORD in the land of the living.

John 14:23, 24 NJKV 23/ Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him. 24/ He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father’s who sent Me.
MATTHEW 22:37 thru 40 NKJV
37/ Jesus said to him, You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. 38/ This is the first and great commandment. 39/ And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40/ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.
WITH THE HELP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
I KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS
Jesus loved me in the depth of my sins. He changed me and now I'm born again.
O how I love Jesus, because he first loved me!
1 PETER 4:8
******************
Jesus Anointed by a Sinful Woman
LUKE 7:36-48 NLT
36/ One of the Pharisees asked Jesus to have dinner with him, so Jesus went to his home and sat down to eat. 37/ When a certain immoral woman from that city heard he was eating there, she brought a beautiful alabaster jar filled with expensive perfume. 38/ Then she knelt behind him at his feet, weeping. Her tears fell on his feet, and she wiped them off with her hair. Then she kept kissing his feet and putting perfume on them. 39/ When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this,he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know what kind of woman is touching him. She’s a sinner!” 40/ Then Jesus answered his thoughts. “Simon,” he said to the Pharisee, “I have something to say to you.” “Go ahead, Teacher,” Simon replied. 41/ Then Jesus told him this story: “A man loaned money to two people—500 pieces of silver to one and 50 pieces to the other. 42/ But neither of them could repay him, so he kindly forgave them both, canceling their debts. Who do you suppose loved him more after that?” 43/ Simon answered, “I suppose the one for whom he canceled the larger debt.” “That’s right,” Jesus said. 44/ Then he turned to the woman and said to Simon, “Look at this woman kneeling here. When I entered your home, you didn’t offer me water to wash the dust from my feet, but she has washed them with her tears and wiped them with her hair. 45/ You didn’t greet me with a kiss, but from the time I first came in, she has not stopped kissing my feet. 46/ You neglected the courtesy of olive oil to anoint my head, but she has anointed my feet with rare perfume. 47/ “I tell you, her sins—and they are many—have been forgiven, so she has shown me much love. But a person who is forgiven little shows only little love.” 48/ Then Jesus said to the woman, “Your sins are forgiven.”
JUDE 1:24 NLT
Now all glory to God, who is able to keep you from falling away and will bring you with great joy into his glorious presence without a single fault.
I give my personal testimony below, with hope that someone who might have been written off as useless, worthless, and hopeless, will come to know that there is much hope for you. You are needed, useful, priceless, and wanted by God to live a blessed life full of joy, peace, and love with the hope of a bright, glorious future in Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world. I pray you will come to know that you are deeply loved by God the Heavenly Father, through God the Son-Jesus Christ-the Word of God, revealed to us by God the Holy Spirit who comforts, guides, and leads us into all truth.
ONE GOD IN THREE PERSONS
MY PERSONAL TESTIMONY
Many years ago before I received salvation, my precious mother {now deceased}, whom I love very much, said to me, "Janice, why don't you just die and give everybody a break. There is no hope for you! You have been everywhere for help. You have tried everything: rehabilitation centers for alcoholics, AA {alcoholics anonmous}, hospital detox, phychiatric counseling, and even different churches. There is no hope for you! Just die! DIE!!!
I had been diagnosed as an incurable alcoholic, that would never be able to live independently.
Shortly afterwards I overdosed on alcohol and drugs. Someone called my mother who lived almost one hundred miles from me in another state. She immediately drove to where I was and put me in a hospital where I went into a coma. While in the hospital bed, I didn't know I was in a coma. In my mind I was talking to my mother and her best friend who were standing by the bed gazing strangely at me. I didn't realize at first that they couldn't hear me; but I could hear my mother and her best friend saying, it looks like she {my mother} won't have to worry about me anymore. I heard a doctor say I had brain and liver damage and that the chances of me coming out of the coma weren't favorable. In the coma I was screaming don't you know I can hear you!??? No one could hear me scream! Suddenly I went to a place of total darkness, completely devoid of any light, filled with an overpowering presence of fear and torment; although my body had never left the hospital bed. I tried to see my hands and feet or any part of my body or anything, but it seemed like the deepest blackest pit had swallowed me up. There was no light to see anything! An indescrible state of fear gripped me as I thought, I must be dead! I screamed,
JESUS! JESUS! JESUS!
TO BE CONTINUED
MY PERSONAL TESTIMONY CONTINUED
I was in total darkness before I cried out the name JESUS! JESUS, the name that I now, truly know from personal experiences, has all power in heaven, on earth, under the earth, and in every place of existence there is; just as the scriptures teach us, HIS NAME IS ALL POWERFUL & ABOVE EVERY NAME.
For so many years of my life, not knowing how to, and being unable to, truthfully face the memories of painful, tormenting, events in my life, I believed it was my responsibility to keep secret and protect the reputation of those who abused me. I was told to do this by a well renowned Pastor of a Baptist church & also by police officers whose help I sought. I use to do my best to block out the emotional pain and memories of the abuse, with alcohol and drugs. These painful memories were now swimming around and around in my soul or mind, with no escape or relief from them. Remembrances of years of pain and suffering I also caused my loved ones, and others to go through because of my wrong doings, were being played out in my mind as well. Then I remembered the times I angrily and sometimes fearfully, denied and turned away from JESUS, seeking acceptance by others who didn't believe in Him. I cried, O Lord, help me, save me. I'm so sorry for all of the wrong things I've ever done in my life, to others and to you, please forgive me.
TO BE CONTINUED
MY PERSONAL TESTIMONY CONTINUED
When I cried out the name JESUS, light broke through the darkness. Although I don't recall seeing anyone, I had a knowing in my soul and spirit that I was in the presence of JESUS who was in the light speaking to me, telling me He has loved me with an everlasting love, and that my sins are forgiven. There are no words to adequately describe the joy and peace in His presence. He told me He has much work for me to do; and as I am strengthened to strengthen others and tell them about Him. The light snached me out of the darkness and hurled me back into my body still laying in the hospital bed.
TO BE CONTINUED
MY PERSONAL TESTIMONY CONTINUED
I have not ceased to tell others about JESUS since that personal encounter with Him many years ago. He healed my body. I am completely healed of brain and liver damage. He restored my soul; showing me the right way to think and to live by His teachings in the Bible.
JESUS delivered me from a fearful spirit and gave me His spirit of power, love, and a sound mind.
JESUS healed my broken heart, just like the Bible says He does.
He took away my hurt and pain and replaced it with such joy and peace that the human mind can not grasp it. He delivered me, or set me free from alcohol and drug addiction, demonic possession, oppression, and so many other unclean bondages over the years.
Psalm 34:19 NKJV
19/ Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
But the LORD delivers him out of them all.
Without condemnation of my sinful life, but with loving kindness, Jesus drew me into His light of love.
I am
And You are Too!!!
PSALMS 27:10 KJV
When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.
HEBREWS 13:5
For He Himself has said,
************************************************
MATHEW 28:20 NKJV
"I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Amen.
********************************************************************
Psalm 139:7, 8 NKJV
7/ Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
8/ If I ascend into heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.
If there is anyone wanting to receive salvation, healing or deliverance,
Oh!!! Won't you Cry out to JESUS and let HIM save, heal, deliver and set you free from all, or any destructive bondages? I'm a witness that knows He can and will, because JESUS did it for me, He'll do it for YOU too!
JESUS LOVES YOU SO MUCH!
For hurting loved ones of those in bondage to destructive addictions, be encouraged to keep holding on and not give up on them. Your love and prayers for them may be the only thing keeping them alive. I pray for Father God to give you strength to endure whatever pain you go through with them, until their breakthrough/deliverance comes. Holy Spirit of the Living God fall fresh on the brokenhearted, calling out to you for help. For You are a very present help in time of trouble. Comfort the hurting. Save, strengthen, heal, deliver and set captives free. Rain down from heaven the anointing, that destroys yokes. Bless your people I pray, in Jesus name. Amen
Psalm 23 NKJV
1/ The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2/ He makes me to lie down in green pastures: He leads me beside the still waters, 3/ He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. 4/ Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For you are with me; Your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 5/ You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. 6/ Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
