Gospel
Do you want God to speak to you? If you do, He speaks to you and with you through the Bible. He has given you certain places in the Bible where you will learn from Him how you can be certain to locate Him.
Your Bible probably has a concordance in the back of it. There you will see directions for ways to understand His word. There is a reference there to go to Deut. 4:29. It informs you “…you shall find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and soul.” How do you seek Him? Prayer, reading the Bible, and acting upon what you read.
Another scripture verse is Jeremiah 17:10, “I the Lord, search the heart.”
Under the word “heart” in the concordance, there is a reference to Romans 10:9, which says:
“…if thou shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart, that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved.”
As you read these scripture verses, you will, no doubt, read many other verses; you will be lead by God to read the verses that He wants you to understand because He leads; you follow.
A very well-known verse is found in John 3:16: “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
When I wanted to find the Lord, I first saw the above verse on a large bulletin board. It attracted me to such an extent that I could not get it out of my mind. Then I went to the Bible and prayed about it. From that time on, God led me to search out His Word. I started going to church and read the Bible. I spent much time reading it. I could not get enough of it. God, himself, taught me about His Word. That is the best way to learn. His Word is alive and when you do what it says, you will end up being saved.
I could not understand what the word “saved” meant. “Saved” from what, I wondered. Now I realize that we are saved from Satan and his power. I learned about him also, that he has the power to keep you from learning about Jesus. He does not want you to be saved. He wants you to spend eternity with him in hell.
