Are you searching for peace in 2024?
Then rejoice!
You have found the answer!
His Name is Jesus Christ!
Are you concerned about your life's direction and the path you are walking? If you die today, do you know where your soul will spend eternity? If Jesus tugged on your shoulder and pointed you in a new direction, would you be willing to obey? There is something very powerful about the name of Jesus Christ, and the treasure to all of mankind, the HOLY BIBLE, tells us why. John 14:6 Jesus said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.”
John 3:3 “Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
Hebrews 9:22 “Without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.”
Matthew 9:6 "The Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins."
Acts 4:12 “There is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.”
Ezekiel 18:4 “The soul who sins will die.” Romans 10:13 “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
John 10:7,9 "I am the door of the sheep...if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved."
John 10:30 "I and the Father are one."
John 8:19 "If you knew Me, you would know My Father also."
John 14:11 "I am in the Father and the Father is in Me."
The night before His crucifixion Jesus gave His disciples an amazing promise: “Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful” (John 14:27)
Are you feeling like your life is out of control and that achieving peace is elusive no matter what you have done to try and find it? Are you frustrated, angry, hurt, afraid, or exhausted from your desire to find true peace? You are not alone. Many people are experiencing the same thing and have not found the answer yet. Thankfully, Jesus has the answer for you and me this very minute, this very hour, this very day. Please keep reading. By the way, there is nothing to be sold or purchased on this website. Instead, it is a Holy Spirit-inspired message that leads the way towards true and everlasting peace on the road of life's challenges. I pray that you will take some time away from your busy life to find out how a relationship with Jesus Christ can begin for you this very day.
For you see, the path to the Lord's peace begins with you and me surrendering our life and circumstances to Jesus.
I surrender control of my life to you, Lord Jesus, knowing that You will handle everything in Your own time and purpose for my life. I choose to receive and accept Your supernatural peace, fully surrendering my mind, will, and emotions to You.
But, of course, His peace comes as we discover and accept in our heart that you and I are in need of a Savior. We have sinned against our Creator and need to receive salvation through the sacrifice of the Lord God's only Son, who was crucified on a cross for our sake in order that we may be forgiven for our trespasses and have our souls cleansed by Jesus' holy blood. For without Jesus' shed blood to atone for our sinfulness, we cannot be made acceptable to our Father in Heaven, who is perfect and holy in every way and who desires that His children enter into a lasting relationship with Him through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ.
We need to make a decision to accept Jesus Christ as our personal Savior, knowing that He is the only way to the Father and everlasting life beyond this world. So let us explore the vital life-changing message that the Lord God Almighty desires to share with you at this very moment of your life. The Lord is calling you.
Now, before we begin, I have a very important message to all visitors of this website.
Special Message for 2024:
If you do not know Jesus, may 2024 be the year that you experience the miracle of His salvation!
If you already know Jesus, may 2024 be the year that you strengthen your relationship with Jesus and respond to His call to remain on the straight and narrow path.
Make these your goals for 2024:
1. Get closer to the Lord through prayer, meditation on the Word of the Lord in the Holy Bible, and dependence on the Holy Spirit.
2. End your worries by placing your faith in the Lord and believing that He is able. Allow Jesus to carry your burdens and ask for His strength in the trials you and your family may be experiencing at this time.
3. Obey the Word of the Lord, forgive others, and be generous in your tithes and offerings to both the Lord's churches and ministries, as well to as to those who are in need. Your time and the heavenly gifts that you have been blessed with are needed as well.
4. If you have gone astray, ask for the Lord's forgiveness and increase your time in prayer asking Him to give you the power to resist temptation and walk in obedience to the Word of God.
5. And please remember in prayer the persecuted Christians of the world who are suffering or have lost their lives because of their faith in Jesus Christ. In addition, please pray for your loved ones' salvation and for government leaders around the world to awaken to the wisdom and knowledge of the Lord God Almighty.
Frequent prayer throughout your day is essential to remaining close to the Lord and the guidance of His Holy Spirit!
Amen and amen!
And when the scribes and Pharisees saw Him eat with tax collectors and sinners, they said unto His disciples, How is it that He eats and drinks with tax collectors and sinners? When Jesus heard it, He saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.- Mark 2:16-17
Is Jesus calling you at this very moment in your life? Could it be that Jesus Christ is reaching out to you right now because He knows that your life is broken and that you are in need of His saving grace? Are you weary and in need of Jesus' mighty hand to reach down and lift you up and out of the depths of sin? Does your heart desire forgiveness and a hunger to repent, or turn away, from the sins that are weighing you down?
Friend, Jesus wants you to know Him personally today!
Would you like the Lord God Almighty to forgive you of every sin you have ever committed in your life?
Then, you must know Jesus Christ.
Do you want to truly repent of your sins and receive the power to avoid particular sins in your life?
Then, you must know Jesus Christ.
Do you want to spend eternity in Heaven with the Lord God Almighty, who created you and everything in the entire universe?

Perhaps you are asking yourself, how can I know Him personally? All you must do is to call upon the name of Jesus and speak to Him about what is on your mind or in your heart. If you have a sincere heart and truly want to know Him, the Lord Jesus will hear you and will lead you down the right path to wisdom and understanding. He will speak into your heart and mind as He draws you nearer to His presence.
When you are sincerely ready, you simply must ask Jesus to come into your heart. If you do not know what to say to Jesus, there is a Salvation Prayer link available to click at the top of this page. The Salvation Prayer will guide you if you are ready to give your life to Jesus today.
Perhaps you are not ready yet, or you have more questions about Jesus Christ. Let me begin by encouraging you to read on and visit each of the links at the top of the page. For if today happens to be the last day of your life, Jesus has a message for both believers and non-believers that He wants to share with you. The Lord God Almighty, the father of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, will speak to your heart if you are ready to listen.
Jesus is waiting for you to find out more about Him.
What follows is a humble attempt to help you see that we all have sinned and broken the Lord God's laws for our lives as can be found in the pages of the Holy Bible. As a result, we need to acknowledge our sinfulness before the Lord, seek His forgiveness, and ask for God's strength so that we may repent of our sinful ways.
There is only one way to be forgiven for our sins - that is by the shed blood of Jesus Christ, whose death on the cross paid the price for our sinfulness. Without Jesus' sacrifice for us, we would all have to stand guilty before the Lord God's throne on the day of judgment.
Jesus spoke of this day:
But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
(Matthew 12:36-37)
There are other references in the Holy Bible:
Because He (the Lord God Almighty, our Father who art in heaven), hath appointed a day, in which He will judge the world in righteousness by that man (Jesus Christ, God's only Son) whom He hath ordained; whereof He hath given assurance unto all men, in that He hath raised Him (Jesus) from the dead.
(Acts 17:31)
and
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
(2 Corinthians 5:10)
Why must you know Jesus Christ? The Lord God planned it this way so that those who place their faith in Jesus can be made righteous in our Father's eyes.
For He (the Lord God) hath made Him (Jesus Christ) to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him (Jesus).
(2 Corinthians 5:21)
Thanks to Jesus, those who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior will be covered by His precious blood and made spotless in the eyes of Almighty God, who is holy and righteous. For when Jesus gave up His life on the cross at Calvary, His sacrifice paid the price for our sins. What an incredible gift that the Lord God gave mankind when He sent Jesus to this Earth to spread the Word of the Lord and eventually give up His life for our salvation!
As you receive Jesus into your heart and life, you are made acceptable to Almighty God, Our Heavenly Father - the Great I AM! - and your sins are forever washed away. Then, God commands us to repent of our sins and to surrender our lives to Him so that He may make us into the image of Jesus, His only Son.
The Holy Bible tells us that we must receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior in order to be blessed with eternal life in Heaven.
Jesus, who sends His Holy Spirit to live inside us when we invite Him into our hearts, is the only way for us to be made acceptable to our Heavenly Father!
The Holy Bible tells us that we must know Jesus, for as He told His disciples, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." (John 14:6).
The Holy Bible also includes one of the most recognizable verses of all - "God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16).
Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him." Jesus answered him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." Nicodemus said to Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter into his mother's womb and be born?" Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
Do not marvel that I said to you, 'You must be born again.' The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit." (John 3:1-8)
My name is Doug, and Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. He loves you and me more than we can ever know. Almighty God helped me find the truth about Jesus and called on me through His Holy Spirit to receive the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross so that my sins may be forgiven. God had mercy on me and opened my eyes to Jesus. I am forever grateful, and my life has never been the same. I pray that your life will be changed as well. Please stay and visit the remaining pages (especially Jesus Will Return) to learn more about the Lord Jesus Christ, and why knowing Him and accepting Him as your personal Savior will change your life and your eternal destiny forever! May the Lord bless you mightily as you respond to His voice! And may you depend on the Lord to place you on the straight and narrow path, providing you daily with the strength and power to remain on that path in a world that constantly operates to lead us astray. Our Father who are in Heaven, send us Your precious Holy Spirit to guide us and help us to remain surrendered to Your will as we face each day. Make us holy and pure in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! Amen!
Yours in Christ, Doug
Prince of Peace, The Resurrection was painted by Akiane Kramarik, a Lithuanian-American girl, when she was just eight years old. Akiane is a self-taught artist and began having "visions" of heaven when she was only four. Another young child, Colton Burpo, left his body during emergency surgery when he was three years old. Colton got to see Akiane's painting when he was older. He told his father, a pastor and author of the book, Heaven is for Real, that the portrait "was right" and was as he remembered seeing Jesus during his brief trip to heaven.
On Akiane's 23rd birthday, she revealed her new Jesus portrait, "Jesus, Prince of Peace." She stated that "All these years God was waiting for me to grow so I could paint the most powerful message to mankind; A Message of Unwavering Faith, Unconditional love and Eternal life - JESUS."
The story of endurance that was involved in painting this portrait of the Lord has been captured in the documentary titled Painting the Impossible. Please view it on YouTube (see the link below). It is a remarkable story of this extremely gifted young artist's amazing life journey and the visions and intense dreams of Heaven that she experienced in order to accomplish the Lord's will. Her works of art are truly beautiful blessings that Jesus clearly wants her to share with the whole wide world.
