Spring has finally arrived and we are fast approaching the 2013 Family Freedom Walk on Saturday, May 11th. Last year the Lord brought in over $61,000 which absolutely stunned us. We would like to invite you to be a part of what God does this year through the walk. If you can join us that day, call today to register and start getting sponsors (732.350.1187). If you can’t walk with us, please consider being a sponsor. All the net proceeds go to support the Addiction Recovery Ministries to help restore lives, marriages and families from the devastation of addiction.
This year our staff is having a friendly competition between the men and the women so it would be great if all our Victory Call readers would sponsor the women’s team for $25.00 but even $5 or $10 will make a difference. This link will take you directly to our webpage if you would give on-line. Family Freedom Walk Support or if you prefer you may mail a check to America’s Keswick 601 Route 530 Whiting, NJ 08759 in either case please designate your gift to FFW: Women’s team.
Thank you so much for your support. We appreciate you.
Blessings,
The Victory Call writers
“Holy God, in love, became
Perfect Man to bear my blame
On the cross He took my sin
By His death I live again.”1
Dear sisters, what more needs to be said? The above song, titled “The Gospel Song”, says it well. A holy God loved us so much that He came to earth to bear the blame, our blame; to bear the just penalty that our sin deserves. He died in our place in the worst possible way – The Cross. By His atoning death we live in eternity with Him. Halleluiah!!
“He paid a debt He did not owe;
I owed a debt I could not pay;
I needed someone to wash my sins away.
And, now, I sing a brand new song,
“Amazing Grace.”
Christ Jesus paid a debt that I could never pay.”2
If we are in Christ, the Gospel is the reason for our very being and existence. If we are daughters of The Most High, the Gospel informs every thought, every deed, every desire, etc. There is nothing that is part of our existence that isn’t impacted by the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
There is no other Gospel. There is no other truth which will ever supersede the Gospel. There is nothing else past, present or future sufficient to save us to the uttermost. No truth that justifies, sanctifies, and will one day glorify. No truth apart from the Gospel that transforms and regenerates from the inside out.
So, let me ask you:
How is that Gospel keeping you today?
Do you know that you know that you know that you know that there is no power on earth that will ever minimize or change the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ?
Nothing, no nothing can or will ever be able to separate us from the love of God wrapped up in the Gospel! Selah. Selah.
“For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38-39 (NKJV)3
