Daily Devotional with Pastor Mike Okonkwo MFR

           You Can Call On Him

“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Romans 10:13
 What a beautiful scripture we have today. Notice that this scripture is a qualifier for everyone. Oftentimes people discount themselves from coming to God because of the mess they have made of their lives. The devil jumps on your shoulders and tells you, there is no need trying, don’t even make any attempt, there is no use, you are not good enough to approach God. I want you to know that all these satanic suggestions are not enough to stop you.
 God specializes in making messages out of messes. Your mess is a message to someone. The text today says “whosoever” calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Whosoever means anyone: man or woman, boy or girl, educated or illiterate, rich or poor, irrespective of your social status or financial status. The gospel is for “whosoever”.
 No matter your condition, failure, mistakes or disadvantages.  You are included in “whosoever”. You can be saved. Just call upon the name of the Lord. The son of man came to seek and to save those that are lost (Luke 19:10). If you have not yet given your life to Christ, right where you are, you can surrender to Him today, just turn to the last page and pray that simple prayer and you will be surprised that He will come into your life and make His abode in you and your life will never be the same again.
 But that does not end there, also I encourage you to find a Bible believing church, a place where Jesus Christ is preached, the Holy Spirit is given absolute liberty and the word of God is the final authority. You need a church to help you grow for everything that is born must grow. If you need my recommendation, I gladly recommend to you any TREM branch close to you. You can get all the addresses from the website: www.trem.org.
 There is hope for you today; you are qualified to call on Him.
