“Just Jesus!” is a phrase that repeats in my mind often…. Jesus makes so many things possible! Picture Courtesy of the Author.
When you see the words “Just Jesus,” what thoughts comes to mind? Does it make you think of one specific thing that “Just Jesus” is capable of doing? Does it make you think of how “Just Jesus” knows the real you? Does it bring to mind something that “Just Jesus” could have made possible in your life? Does it speak to your heart in any specific way at all? Pondering questions like these can help stir our hearts, as we reflect on all that Jesus means to us personally.
This phrase has been repeating in my mind for several years, and the words continue to come to my mind at the strangest times… in the middle of the night, the middle of the day, or even when I am writing: “JUST JESUS!” pops into my head, reminding me of all that He makes possible!
Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life! ~
“Just Jesus” ~ Keep that phrase repeating as you read this column…
Jesus is the hope of the world, and He is the one and only Son of God. He is the Savior, the Messiah, the Promised One; and He came to make forgiveness possible to all who would believe in Him.
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begottenSon, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”John 3:16
Jesus spoke with authority as He spoke to the disciples in John 14:6 saying, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
There were no other options offered in His declaration! Jesus made it very clear that He is the one and only way to Heaven.
Sadly, in today’s world, there are many teachings regarding other ways for a person to enter Heaven. But make no mistake! There is only one way to the Father in Heaven, and it is stated clearly by the words of Jesus in the Bible for all to see. Don’t be misled by false teachings… Read the Bible for yourself!

Jesus Himself Sent Out Disciples For the Harvest ~
In Luke Chapter 10, Jesus sent out disciples to reach the harvest, and said that they should pray that the Lord would send more workers into His fields. Jesus emphasized the importance of spreading the Gospel, and it certainly holds true today. It is of the utmost importance that we boldly share our faith in Jesus!
Excitingly enough, as I was thinking about this, I was reminded that I am called to be one of these workers! As a believer, I am a disciple of Jesus, so His words “Now Go…” apply to me. And the same is true for you, if you are a follower of Jesus Christ! Together, we are all called to be a workers, sharing Jesus with the world. We are on a mission to spread the hope of salvation and eternal life to all who will listen!
Jesus said the words that the harvest is great, many years ago, and it’s definitely easy to see just how great the harvest is all these years later. “This world really needs Jesus for so many reasons!”

Just Jesus ~
According to Jesus, we need to pray for more worker’s who will boldly share the faith we believe in, so I am sharing this post as encouragement for us to do just that!
Jesus is coming back, and our mission is to tell others!
I can honestly say that, “If the Holy Spirit can use me to reach just one soul with the truth of Jesus, it will be worth it! However, I pray for much bigger things! My hope is that He allows me to reach thousands upon thousands for Him! AND I KNOW THAT NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD!” I am asking and believing for a large harvest!
The world needs to know that “Just Jesus” can save them from their sins! Nothing else! “Just Jesus!” ~ I intend to tell them!

Please know that Jesus paid the price for all sins, big and small, known and unknown. Jesus offers Salvation freely. We can’t earn it, and we don’t deserve it. Only choosing to place our faith in Jesus as our Savior assures us of forgiveness, and eternal life in Heaven.
If you have not yet placed your faith in Jesus, please don’t wait… Today can be the day of Salvation! Jesus loves you!
Here is a quick reference for any who want to know how to accept Jesus:
ADMIT that you have made mistakes/sinned, and that you need a Savior.
BELIEVE that Jesus is the one and only Son of God, who was born, died on the Cross, and was resurrected to life and then Repent and ASK JESUS TO FORGIVE YOU.
CONFESS that you believe in Jesus and have accepted Him as your personal Savior.
