Imagine being tortured, beaten, thorns going through your skin, blood everywhere on your body and you become so exhausted at the point of fainting. You carry the world on your shoulders. The weight of the cross gives you more pain. Finally, when you come to the location, you have no rest, as blood is still all over your body. Instead, 3 nails are pounded through your body. Each nail gives excruciating pain more than the first. But you did no wrong!!!!

Jesus did no wrong! He did everything for your sake. Jesus loves you so much! His Blood can heal you where you are. No matter what your sin, Jesus paid it all. You can be set free. He reaches out to you. Sincerely call upon the Name of the Lord and you will be saved. Come as you are. Sunday is on the Way! Let Him help you!

Ransom Paid
By Ramesh C. Reddy

I was caught in sin
Without a way to win
Satan became my master
Sin started controlling me faster
My whole life was a night
Without a ray of light
Sin had shown me its might
I would always lose the fight
Until I was made right
Now sin had lost its power
On a Good Friday hour
Because Jesus took all my sin on Calvay's hill
Delivering me from Satan's will
Satan wanted to perish me
Jesus wanted to cherish me
He knew the Cross was the Only Way!
My ransom He decided to pay!
Delivering me from Satan's sinful flood
Nails pierced Jesus' hands and feet, shedding His blood
Darkness covered the earth
I received new birth
I was washed whiter than snow
As the Savior I came to know
I am free at last
From my sinful past
Amen!

Friends, know the Lord Jesus died for you! He loves you! No matter what kind of life you have lived, you can still come to God. He is a loving Father who would accept you as His child. All you have to do is acknowledge what Jesus did for you and choose to turn from your old ways and allow Jesus Christ to work in your life! He is Alive and well and reaches out to you! He came back on the Third Day and continues to live!

I do not know you all but the Lord Jesus does! May you come to know the Love of the Lord this Good Friday! Judgment passes over us because of what Jesus Christ did for us!

You can come to the Lord and He will receive you.

Prayer:
Dear Lord Jesus, you know where I have been and what I have done. You know the sins of the closet and you know the sins that have been laid open for all to see. In it all, I want to thank you that for all those you paid the ransom for me. It means a lot Jesus that you decided to take the judgment that belonged to me. Thank you so much Jesus. Now I come to you as I am and ask you for your forgiveness for what I put you through. I nailed you to the cross because of my sin. You went there for me and took the shame and pain. Thank you so much Jesus. Now at this moment, I confess all my sin to you and want you to be the Lord of my life as you have decided to be my Savior when you went to the cross. Thank you for dying for my sin and coming back to life to save me. Help me to live for you and serve you. Protect me from the enemy and guide my footsteps for your honor and glory. Thank you so much Jesus. Thank you for hearing my prayers and for answering me. In Your Name I Pray Jesus. Thank you for coming into my heart and making my heart your home. Thank you for living in me and I will live for you and serve you the rest of the days of my life. Fill me with the Holy Spirit. In Your Name I Pray Jesus! Amen!

Love in Christ,
Ramesh
