In this final part of our supernatural series, we explore the profound simplicity of opening our hearts to Jesus. Salvation is not about complex rituals or religious jargon; it’s about being vulnerable enough to admit that our lives often fall short when led by our own decisions. Paul refers to life without Jesus as “dung,” highlighting that while our efforts may be reasonable by worldly standards, they pale compared to what Jesus can do for us. We often find ourselves in a cycle of fear and busyness, driven by the fear of missing out, fear of our past, and fear of the future. This fear keeps us from experiencing the peace and abundance that Jesus offers.
Jesus invites us to live according to His principles, which are already woven into the fabric of our being. When we align our lives with His teachings, we find that the gap between what we have and what we desire is filled by His presence. The greatest enemy of the life we want is our current life, trapped in busyness and fear. Satan plans to steal our dreams and keep us in a state of anxiety, but Jesus offers a life of abundance, free from the fear of death and the pressures of this world.
To follow Jesus is to live an unrushed life, motivated by peace and love rather than fear. Jesus, the Good Shepherd, leads us toward goodness and lays down His life for us. He calls us to surrender, follow, learn, apply, and align our lives with His teachings. In doing so, we move from a life of fear and busyness to one of supernatural peace and purpose. Jesus’ prayer for us in John 17 reminds us that we are not trapped by the rush of life but are liberated by His love and presence. As we surrender our lives to Him, we find that we lack nothing and are empowered to live as His supernatural expression.
