She Rises She Can

1. Believe

The word “believe” in the Bible means more than simply agreeing in our minds that something might be true. It means “trust”—that we believe so strongly in God that we are willing to commit our lives to Him and live the way we know He wants us to live. Believing in Jesus is an action word. You cannot just say it, you have to act on your beliefs.

” To believe in Christ is to commit our lives by faith to Christ—to trust Him personally as our Lord and Savior. John 3:16- “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”

2. Receive

“ Yet to all who received him” So when we look at this verse in the sense of receiving Christ- it is by the definition of receive- To acquire him, To permit him to enter into your life To come into possession of him.

Receiving Christ is a choice that you have to personal make. Choosing to receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior is the most important decision you’ll ever make! God’s Word promises, “If you declare with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in our heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. (13) For, everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”(Rom. 10:9–10,13). By His grace, God has already done everything to provide salvation. Your part is simply to believe and receive.

3. Become

“He gave the right to become the children of God.” It is a privilege to be a part of the family of God. If God wanted to hide we would have never found him. He chose to make himself available and we responded. That is the only good thing we did concerning salvation. 2 Corinthians 5:17- “Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away, and look, new things have come.” There is a new birth that allows us to begin again with a new relationship with Him. The old things that shackled us, he wants to take out of our lives. The things that separated us from God. The new things that come into our lives is the new mind, the new priorities we have that draw us closer to God.

In the transformation process, a believer is given the power to overcome because He has become a child of God. Some things will happen instantaneously! Some things will be a process of you falling and getting back up- not because He fails but because we are weak. Some things, it will be His will that we will deal with some things all of this life!

Prayer: Lord Jesus, I have offered myself as a living sacrifice, to believe in you, receive you and become your child. In Jesus Name I pray. Amen!
