Let's Talk About Jesus

Let's Talk About Jesus
By Dona Hatherley

Let's Talk about Jesus, The King of kings is He, The Lord of lords supreme, Throughout eternity, The great 'I am the way, The truth, the life, the door.' Let's talk about Jesus more and more.

This chorus I learned as a child was ringing in my heart one morning and would not leave me until I actually talked to Jesus and asked what it was He was saying by way of this song.

It is noted by His Highest Majesty when we talk to one another about Him whether by voice or email or courier. It is recorded and referred to by the Lord betimes. There are rewards for favourable talks about Jesus, Father Jehovah and Holy Spirit. He hears, He blesses. Malachi 3:16 (King James Version) Public Domain [A Public Domain Bible] [KJV at Zondervan] http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?book_id=46&chapter=3&verse=16&version=9&context=verse

16Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.

Jesus said that if He were lifted up He would draw all men unto Him. To lift someone up denotes praise and boasting and exalting with words of their good deeds. Are you drawn to someone who is held in high esteem by your neighbour? Is there an urgency to get to know a person who others adore, love and talk about constantly? Do you feel compelled to ask for more information regarding this wonderful acquaintance?

Let's talk about this Prince from Heaven who came in the form of the most vulnerable of humans, a baby. His purpose was hidden from the majority but the few who were clued in sought Him as Heaven's precious gift to mankind. Jesus was in danger His whole life under Roman rule and kept a low profile until His ministry time at the age of thirty three.

During His preaching,teaching and healing period He was courageous, brave and bold as a lion of Judah. No one compared to Him as was testified by friends and foe alike.~John 7:46 (King James Version) [A Public Domain Bible] [KJV at Zondervan]

46The officers answered, Never a man spake like this man.(After being unable to arrest Jesus) John 6:68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. ( Here the disciples had to choose to remain with Jesus after others left Him)

It is comforting to know that there is no other to look to for salvation, deliverance and redemption. I was glad to hear that He was the one and only to have to go through for my peace, joy and love. What a relief to not have to search any further for the door to Heaven and God the Father of us all. The truth of His message hit home in my heart and spirit.

Follow Me was His simple command. Do what I do and say! Trust Me! Believe in Me! We need this plan more than ever in a day when chaos breaks into our lives and we do not know which way to turn. Jesus said if two or three are gathered in His Name, He would be there in the midst. Wow !

Imagine being in the presence of our king just because we want to be. There is not a monarch on the earth that can bless his or her people that way. Knowing that He will come to us as often as we gather in His name is an awesome privilege the few take advantage of but the majority of believers miss out on.

Jesus the Christ, Son of the Living God and Father of us all, our Creator is waiting to hear His name not in a curse or slang way but in a loving, devotional atmosphere as when Benny Hinn has a crusade. Let's talk about Jesus more and more to have His presence and to receive

His rewards for the faithful. To fear Him is to revere Him. What is not to love in such a Savior? What is not to talk about when we are so loved that He came to die in our stead?
