“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) The only person Jesus cannot help is the person who refuses to believe. That is the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. The blasphemy of unbelief. The blasphemy of the Holy Spirit can neither be forgiven in this world nor in the world to come because Jesus says I am your saviour and you say you don’t believe in Him. What do you want Him to do? Save you by force? You have to believe to be saved. The blank cheque has been given. The whole world is technically saved but the reality is that it is for those who have believed. “If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth” (Mark 9:23 KJV). What are the things? The things that have been threatening your life. The things that have been harassing you. The things that have been giving you sleepless nights. What are the things?

Isaiah 65:24 :- “Before they call, I will answer.” This is a testimony written by a doctor who worked in Africa. One night I had worked hard to help a mother in the labor ward; but in spite of all we could do, she died, leaving us with a tiny, premature baby and a crying two-year-old daughter.

She came back shortly in distress to tell me that in filling the bottle, it had burst (rubber perishes easily in tropical climates). “And it is our last hot water bottle!” she exclaimed. As in the West, it is no good crying over spilled milk, so
“ 1. My son, pay attention to my wisdom, lend your ear to my understanding 2. That you may preserve discretion, and your lips may keep knowledge 3. For the lips of an immoral woman drip honey, and her mouth is smother than oil. 4. But in the end, she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two edged sword. 5. Her feet go down to death, her steps lay hold of hell. 6. Lest you ponder her path of life, her ways are unstable, you do not know them. 7. Therefore, hear me now, my children, and do not depart from the words of my mouth. 8. Remove your way far from her, and do not go near the door of her house. 9. Lest you give your honor to others, and your years to the cruel one 10. Lest aliens be filled with your wealth, and your labors go to the house of a foreigner, 11.
