Come to Jesus Today

PRAY OVER THIS

“Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.”

Ephesians 5:25-27

 

PONDER THIS

Who is the bride of Jesus? It is the Church. The Church is not the building, but the people. Don’t abuse the bride of Christ. Jesus loves His bride. He loves us. He’s working on us that He might present us to Himself a spotless bride, without blemish or any such thing.

God wants you saved, He wants you to be a part of the Church, His bride. He wants you to know Jesus. And He’s saying to you, “If you’ve never come, then come now.” It is beautiful to be a part of the Church, the bride of Christ. If you have come, hear Jesus calling, “Go tell the others. Tell them that I’m not dead, but I’m alive. I am now at the right hand of the Majesty on high. I have made provision for you. And I want you to come and live with Me forever.” This is the hope and calling we have. Jesus is the only hope of a dying world!

How have you cared for the bride of Christ, the Church? How can you do so in the future?

Why do we often struggle with loving the bride of Christ?

PRACTICE THIS

Pray for your pastors, ministers, members, and volunteers at your church.
