Jesus' empire is higher than the highest heaven, but He has dominion over the lowest hell as well! He wears that diadem in heaven, that iron crown in hell and also here on earth He is Lord and everything bows to His reign! All things are upheld by the word of His power. Are you wondering what is happening to the world? Be encouraged that Jesus will come and make everything brand new and the glory of this world is already His.

"It is finished". Words that echo throughout eternity! You need to know the power that these words hold. Don't be ignorant of these things. The devil will come after you and when you don't know that this sacrifice has satisfied the demands of the law, then you will continue to live under guilt and return to the spirit of slavery. We are now sons and daughters that cry out 'Abba Father'. But you need to know on which grounds.

Jesus said: "Lord, receive My Spirit". This can be a daily lifestyle for us! God is so willing to take our lives into His hands and to keep it safe for all of eternity. Learn how you can live a lifestyle of surrender through this powerful message by ev. John T.L. Maasbach.

"Eli, Eli, Lama Sabachtani?" This was what Jesus had to suffer, being completely separated from the Father. That would be unbearable for us and yet we would have to carry that day after day! Jesus took that cup and drink all of it and He cried out: "My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?" Do you understand the price that He paid for you?

Jesus was able to save the thief hanging next to Him on the cross, while Jesus Himself was in such a weak state in body, in flesh. This thief put his trust completely upon this mutilated body, this Man that was hanging next to him. How much more is He able to save today when He is risen to glory, sitting there with a name above every other name! One drop of the blood of Jesus is able to wash away a lifetime of sin and make you holy and acceptable before God.

“Father forgive them, because they don't know what they're doing". This prayer is our example. Our success and victory in prayer depends a great deal on our relationship with the Father. In Jesus' hour of great need He is not praying for Himself. He is interceding for those that are nailing him to the cross! And as He prayed these words upon the cross, so He is praying these words upon the throne right now.

The last seven utterings of Jesus on the cross, they are like stars that shine the light on the way to salvation. In this powerful introduction of this new series by Ev. John T.L. we see that these words are the confirmation of the many doctrines we hold on to. But it is also clearly the confirmation that Jesus has accomplished and is still fulfilling this ministry.

A special path that we as believers no doubt have to follow is the path of prayer. If you will visit your prayer closet often, you will always have food for your spirit. Ev. John T.L. speaks wisdom on two different trails of prayer: wrestling in prayer and communing with God.

There should be a difference between the house of a believer and the house of a nonbeliever. You should feel it in the atmosphere. To a visitor, it should be visible what is important to you and it should be felt in the spirit. Problems or obstacles in your house can be an opportunity for God to work in your life so don't be discouraged!

If Christ is in you, there should be a desire to commune with the Father. Spurgeon said: "a soul without prayer is a soul without Christ". In this message Ev. John T.L. speaks to us from Colossians 4:2 that says: 'Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful'.
