Why Should We Make Jesus The Lord Of Our Life?


We follow Jesus because He is Our Savior,

“He will save His people from their sins” (Matthew 1:21). Sin is disobedience to God’s law (1 John 3:4).

All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God ( Romans 6:23.)

The wages of sin is death. We sinned, all of us ought to be punished eternally, because we have disobeyed God. but Jesus , our Savior , who did not sin, save us from this punishment and give us eternal life. He died for us, and by this it demonstrates God’s love for us.

“There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12).

Jesus Is the Divine Son of God

The Father said about Jesus, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!” (Matthew 17:5).

If we believe in Jesus, we can have life in His name.

Though Jesus died, He was raised from the dead. His resurrection, along with His other miracles and the prophecies He fulfilled, prove that He is the Son of God, because He is God’s Son, He possesses “all authority in heaven and on earth,” so we should make Him the Lord of our Life and obey all His commands.

Jesus will come again and we must all appear before the judgment seat one day.

Jesus’ words will judge us in the last day (John 12:48). We need to learn His will and follow His way now.

We must follow what He teaches or we will be destroyed (Acts 3:22,23). Jesus’ teachings are truth, and anything different is considered as error.

To be freed from sin, we must obey what Jesus teaches us.

To be Jesus’ disciple, we must die to self and follow Him (Matthew 16:24,25), but most people want forgiveness and blessings only, they do not want to give up their own fleshy desires and live according to Jesus’ teachings. This is not true discipleship.

To be a true disciple of Jesus, we must always give top priority in

serving our Lord.

We should present our bodies “a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God… And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind…” (Romans 12:1,2).

True disciple of Christ is total sacrifice, total transformation of self, total lifetime commitment.
