Dec 11 The One and Only






I had a dream last night that was so funny. We were having a holiday dinner with just a couple of friends.  I was serving a small turkey and it was browning nicely in the oven.  Things began to get a little tense as more friends began to arrive than I had planned for.I asked my husband to run to the store and purchase another turkey that I could cook. When he returned I opened the bag and was shocked to see the words Squirrel meat! Really! I honestly think it also said, Not road kill, as if that would make it better! Dreams are funny! My husband went back to the store and this time returned with fresh salmon. Then I woke up! What I wanted was turkey, it was the one and only thing that I asked for! 

I have know idea what the meaning of that was, but then this morning I thought about Jesus being our one and only.

He is the one and only, the one that the Prophets foretold the one to come
the one and only son
the one to come
the one and only one to forgive us of our sins
There is no substitute for Jesus!

Many have claimed that Jesus is one of many good teachers and prophets.
Lot's of people will say all roads lead to heaven-That is not true! It's not what the bible says! Jesus is the only way to heaven. He says that He is the way, the truth and the life. He is the only son of God who took our sins upon himself, becoming sin for us.  There is only one Jesus, He is the one and only!

I wonder if you know Him today?

Maybe you have run to things to make your life better, to satisfy the longing in your heart, to try and save you from you habits, addictions and needs. There is only One that can do all of this. The one and only Jesus, the lover of our souls the satisfier of our hearts, the sin bearer that can make us clean, who can give us a relationship with God, The one and Only, His name is Jesus.

He became my One and Only when I was 14. I heard a message about God being the ultimate father who would never leave us or forsake us, who wanted to wrap His arms around me and always be with us. If I wanted to I could be His daughter.  Jesus the One and Only embraced me that day and has been with me  ever since. 
I wonder if you know the One and Only? 

The bible says, believe that Jesus is the One and Only Son of God, that He died for your sins on the cross and that God raised Him from the dead ,then you will be his child. 

Prayer

Jesus the One and Only Son of God, we worship you. We thank you for coming to earth so that we would know God better. We thank you that you are the one and only substitution for our sins. We thank you that you took that upon yourself so that we might be loved, be whole and have eternity.  We confess that we have tried to replace you with other things and with other people.  Today we declare that you are the Son of God, the One and Only and we worship you. 

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:14

Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. John 3:18

This is how God showed His love among us: He sent His one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.  1 John 4:9

How about you when did Jesus become your One and Only?
