Isaiah 43:25

I am the God who forgives your sins and I do this because of who I am and I will not hold your sins against you. (Isaiah 43:25)

The 3rd Crown is the crown of Life:James 1:12, For those believers who endure trials, tribulations, and severe suffering, even unto death, (Rev.2:8-11). This crown is also referred to as the marty's crown. Jesus says that He will give this crown to those who undergo severe hardship, testing, tribulation and/or physical death on His behalf.

There are 5 Crowns which can be given to believers, found in the scripyures.

The 1st one is the incorruptible Crown 1 Cor. 9:24-25. This Crown is given to believers who faithfully run the race, who crucify every selfish desire in the flesh and point men to Jesus. Basically run whatever race that God has set out for you and be the best you can be for God. Be willing to make whatever sacrifices there may be to successfully complete the mission that God has set out for you.

Who soever shall call upon the name Jesus:-)

Greatest man in history, named Jesus, had no servants, yet they called him Master. Had no degree, yet they called him Teacher. Had no medicines, yet they called him Healer.

The real meaning of Easter:-)

The real meaning of Easter, is the Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. To Christians, it is the most special day of the year. Yes,the birth of Christ is quite important. But, his resurrection offers the hope of everlasting life to everyone! The Lenten season leading up to Easter Sunday is a time of fasting, sacrifice and prayer. It is the christian way of replicating in a small way what Christ sacrificed for us, both in his fasting and his final death on the cross.

Brothers & Sisters we need to really understand how much God loves us. He is waiting on us to ask him in faith and believe him with our hearts.

Crown of Life

The Bible declares in James 1:12, "Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life."

It's more about endurance than speed.

As believers, we can't always see the various finish lines God has for us to cross as we run this race called life. This is why the Bible declares that "we walk by faith and not by sight" (see 2 Corinthians 5:7). I encourage you to see with the eyes of faith the things God has for you this year. Focus your spiritual sights on what He has downloaded to you through His Word and by His Spirit. Run steadily toward them, even when you can't discern them with your natural eyes. Don't give up or slow down just because you can't keep your goal within your field of vision. Keep moving in its direction and at the end of the race, you will have reached it.
