Jesus I trust in You!

Today is Divine Mercy Sunday.  We celebrate the truth that God's mercy is limitless and endures forever.

"Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.”  And with that he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit.  If you forgive anyone’s sins, their sins are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.”
(John 20:21-23 NIV)

"Stop doubting and believe.”  Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”  (John 20:27-28 NIV)

ABC OF MERCY:
Ask for Mercy.
Be Merciful.
Completely trust Jesus for Mercy.

I shall not die but live, and declare the works of the Lord.

To share your faith, all you need is Jesus.

"They couldn't take their eyes off them—Peter and John standing there so confident, so sure of themselves! Their fascination deepened when they realized these two were laymen with no training in Scripture or formal education. They recognized them as companions of Jesus."  (Acts 4:13 MSG)

"But Peter and John replied, “Do you think God wants us to obey you rather than him?  We cannot stop telling about everything we have seen and heard.”  (Acts 4:19-20 NLT)

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy!

"Jesus said to them, Bring some of the fish which you have just caught."  (John 21:10 AMP)

"Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” None of the disciples dared ask him, “Who are you?” They knew it was the Lord.  Jesus came, took the bread and gave it to them, and did the same with the fish."

"This was now the third time Jesus appeared to his disciples after he was raised from the dead."  (John 21:12-14 NIV)

Let not your hearts be troubled.

"And Jesus said to them, “Why are you troubled? And why do doubts arise in your hearts?" 
(Luke 24:38 NKJV)

"Look at my hands. Look at my feet. You can see that it’s really me. Touch me and make sure that I am not a ghost, because ghosts don’t have bodies, as you see that I do.”
(Luke 24:39 NLT)

"Then He said to them, This is what I told you while I was still with you: everything which is written concerning Me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled."  (Luke 24:44 AMP)

Why are you scandalized by my suffering? Read the Scriptures.

There is a divine necessity that Jesus must suffer.  No cross, no crown is also a divine law.

"Then Jesus said to them, “You foolish people! You find it so hard to believe all that the prophets wrote in the Scriptures.  Wasn’t it clearly predicted that the Messiah would have to suffer all these things before entering his glory?”
(Luke 24:25-26 NLT)

"They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?”
(Luke 24:32 NIV)

“It is true! The Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon.”   (Luke 24:34 NIV)

Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.

Do you know for certain that Jesus is both God and Savior?  This truth can make you free.

"Therefore let the whole house of Israel recognize beyond all doubt and acknowledge assuredly that God has made Him both Lord and Christ (the Messiah)—this Jesus Whom you crucified."  (Acts 2:36 AMP)

"Peter’s words pierced their hearts, and they said to him and to the other apostles, “Brothers, what should we do?”   (Acts 2:37 NLT)

"And Peter answered them, Repent (change your views and purpose to accept the will of God in your inner selves instead of rejecting it) and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of and release from your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."    (Acts 2:38 AMP)

God raised this Jesus; of this we are witnesses.

“Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a Man attested by God to you by miracles, wonders, and signs which God did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves also know."
(Acts 2:22 NKJV)

"This Jesus, when delivered up according to the definite and fixed purpose and settled plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and put out of the way [killing Him] by the hands of lawless and wicked men.  [But] God raised Him up, liberating Him from the pangs of death, seeing that it was not possible for Him to continue to be controlled or retained by it."
(Acts 2:23-24 AMP)

“God raised Jesus from the dead, and we are all witnesses of this."  (Acts 2:32 NLT)
