In His mercy, God has given us His Son Jesus, who died on a cruel Roman
cross for our sins. He was “punished for our faults”
(Isaiah 50:5) the Bible tells us, and on Him God placed the debt
of sin that we owed. God did this because of His great love for us.
Through Jesus, He fully cancelled all that would ever keep us from Him,
and invites us to come and receive His free gift of forgiveness, fellowship
and eternal life.
At Heart of the Lord Ministries, we celebrate the grace that
is found in Christ Jesus. Through music, teaching and prayer we share
the truth that God loves us and invites us to enter into an intimate
relationship with Him. The Scriptures tell us that “perfect
love casts out fear” (1 John 4:18) and that “we
being delivered out of the hands of our enemies might serve Him without
fear in holiness and righteousness...” (Luke 1:74). It
is in knowing the One who took our condemnation upon Himself, that we
find release from the fear and servanthood of the law, to the love and
inspiration of God's Grace. This is the grace that gives strength for
our weakness, life in our death, and love for all fear.
Having
fufilled the law for us, Jesus sent His Spirit into our hearts so that
the external law of righteousness might now be fulfilled within us
(not by us) by
the Holy Spirit (Philippians
3:4-9). It is by entering
into the Holy of Holies of the Lord's finished work at Calvary, that
true healing and rest can come to the soul. It is here that we abandon
our striving for the "better part"
of abiding (Luke 10:42) and find that only
in close relationship with Jesus,
do we "bear much fruit" (John 5:15).
