Title: Jesus, the Only Solution.
Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
John 10:7-9 KJV
Devotion: God is omniscient, omnipotent and omnipresent. God has many names including Yahweh, I Am etc. We also learn that God turned Himself to man in other to live with humans and redeem humans to Himself. This is when God became Jesus, so it is not surprising when Jesus says I AM.
In the Gospel of St John Jesus referred to Himself as I Am 7 different times. We have discussed some of these, today we see Jesus the I Am as the Door to solve your problems, help achieve your aspirations and make you succeed. Jesus is the door of the sheep whereby you can venture out to do your legitimate business, make profit and come in to use your resources for the good of mankind and God.
If you do anything without going through the right door (Jesus, aka I Am) you have followed the thief and you will suffer the consequences.
In these verses below you find Jesus as John 6:35 -Bread of Life
John 8:12 -Light of the world
John 10:9 - The Door
John10:11 - Good Shepherd
John 11:25, 26 - Resurrection and Life
John 14:6 - The way, the Truth and the Life
John 15:5 - The Vine.
Thus it is appropriate to say Jesus the I am is the universal solution to physical life issues and spiritual issues as well.
I counsel you before it is too late (2 Corinthians 6:2) to come in through the only appropriate Door and your life will not remain the same again. Testimonies await you, just give your life to Jesus. This is the meat of the devotional this morning.
