“JESUS CHRIST THE SAVIOR, WHO SAVES US FROM ALL EVIL.”



John 4:42 records a powerful confession from the people of Samaria. They said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of what you said, for we ourselves have heard Him and we know that this is truly the Savior of the world.” 


This statement shows a move from secondhand faith to personal conviction. They did not depend only on another person’s testimony. They encountered Jesus for themselves. Through hearing Him, they recognized His identity and mission. Jesus was not only a teacher or prophet to them. He was revealed as the Savior of the world. 


This means His saving work is not limited by tribe, nation, or background. He came for all people. True faith is born when a person personally meets Christ and understands that He alone has the power to save. 


Luke 2:10 -11 tells us about the announcement of Jesus’ birth. The angel spoke words of comfort and joy, saying that a Savior was born, who is Christ the Lord. 


From the beginning, Jesus was clearly identified as a Savior. Christmas is not only about celebration. It is a reminder that God sent help to humanity. The birth of Jesus was God’s answer to fear, sin, and separation. The good news is for all people, meaning no one is excluded from His saving grace. 


Jesus Christ is the Savior. Biblically, a Savior is one who rescues, delivers, redeems, and restores. Matthew reminded us that Jesus was named so because He would save His people from their sins. Sin brings danger, bondage, and destruction. Jesus saves us by removing us from that danger. He breaks the power of sin and restores us to life and fellowship with God. 


Evil, in the Bible, has two clear meanings. First, it is a heart and life direction that opposes God’s will and righteousness. Second, it is anything bad that causes harm, pain, sorrow, destruction, or death. This includes suffering such as diseases and accidents. 


When Jesus taught us to pray, He said we should ask to be delivered from evil. This shows that evil is real, but also that deliverance is available. Jesus, the One who was born, is the Savior who rescues us from sin, from evil, and from its effects. In Him, we have hope, safety, and eternal life. 


Prayer: Lord Jesus, our Savior, deliver us from all evil and lead us into Your  life.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

WISDOM TO MAKE RIGHT DECISIONS

  James 1:5 NKJV says, “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.”   God is the true source of wisdom. This verse begins by saying "if any of you lacks wisdom,"  meaning God knows there are moments when even His children do not understand what to do. Wisdom is not automatic. It must be asked for. God welcomes you to ask Him because He gives generously. He does not judge, condemn, or shame you for not knowing. He does not accuse you for lacking understanding. Instead, He gives freely, kindly, and without reproach. And the promise is sure, it will be given. God never lies. When you ask in faith, He releases divine wisdom to guide you in your decisions. When you want to make any major decision in your life pause and ask God for wisdom. Our minds are limited but God knows everything. He knows the future. He knows how things will turn out after you make that decision. What looks right to you ma...
