123123 COME TO ME

123123 COME TO ME

“But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life. … “I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive.” (John 5:40, 43 NKJV)

For weeks, I have been hearing  the Lord say COME over and over again!

  • Come,now.
  • Come up higher.
  • Come to me.
  • Come.

Yesterday, I read a devotional and there it was again…

“Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28)

As we drove into downtown Memphis yesterday, I was sharing the devotion about “COME TO ME”  with a friend via email, I looked up and there was Matthew 11:28 again, high in the sky on a billboard.

No sooner did I see the billboard, which Kris did not, and out of nowhere, he started signing, “Come Unto Me”by Charles P. Jones, pub.1908

Come unto Me, I will give you rest;
Take My yoke upon you, hear Me and be blest;
I am meek and lowly, come and trust My might;
Come, My yoke is easy, and My burden’s light.

What in the world?  In amazement I could only respond, “I hear You Lord!”  When I have heard His voice so clearly for two weeks saying, “Come!” I have no other choice but to come and follow Him.  I also have the duty to share with you.  How simply and easy a call for me to share with you TODAY…”123123 Come to Me!”

“Incline your ear, and come to Me. Hear, and your soul shall live.” (Isa 55:3 NKJV)

“Come to Me, all [you] who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”(Mat 11:28 NKJV)

Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, come and follow Me. (Mat 16:24 NKJV)

“On the last day, that great [day] of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.” (John 7:37 NKJV)

“Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” (Heb 4:16 NKJV)

I enCOURAGE you to hear the call of Jesus, “COME TO ME!”  Jesus came so that we could come to Him and have life.  All year I have declared to you, “VIVA MAGENTA:  LIVE. BREATHE. BE.”  Live the magenta colorful life. Live, breathe and just BE.  We can only truly live our very best life by coming to Jesus. He is life, love, and breath.  “COME TO ME,” Jesus.

“Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come into him and dine with him, and he with Me. (Rev 3:20 NKJV)

No kidding, my Bible reading this morning:

“And behold, I AM COMING QUICKLY, and My reward [is] with Me, to give to everyone according to his work. ‘I am the Alpha and the Omega, [the] Beginning and [the] End, the First and the Last.’” (Rev 22:12-13 NKJV)
