A SURPRISE PARTY FOR JESUS

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

John 3:16 KJV

Let’s have a surprise party for Jesus.  We have surprise parties for our children and loved ones so we should have a surprise party for Jesus.  What shall we give Him?  We can give Him our love, our thanks, our laughter and our happiness because He has set us free from the bondage of satan.

We can make a cake for Him and decorate it with tears of joy, gratitude and happiness because of when He has done for us.  We can also sing to Him because of the knowledge that He loves us unconditionally.  He loved us yesterday.  He loves us today and He will love us tomorrow and for all eternity.

We read in the Bible.  “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed” (John 8:36).  Jesus loves us so much that He died on the cross for our sins and paid the debt for our sins that we could never have paid.  Knowing that He loves us so much that He died for us should cause us to celebrate.

Heavenly Father, thank You for loving us so much that You gave Your Son to die for our sins.  I love You, Heavenly Father.  I love You, Jesus.  I love You, Holy Spirit.  Jesus, thank You for dying for my sins on the cross.  How I long for the day when I will see You face to face.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.
