So what did they do? They began praying. They began evangelizing and reforming the city one person at a time. Before you knew it, the city of Geneva was won over to Christ. And the Great reformation began. This sparked one of the greatest revivals the world has ever known.
Much of Europe was impacted by the Great Reformation, and many souls since then have been impacted.
Where did it start? It started when John Calvin chose to make a difference and choose to impact others for Christ.
Hopeless people found hope in Jesus. Jesus looks at us in our hopeless situations and He gives us hope. In Romans 5, we read of how the hope we can have in Christ "never disappoints."
I know for me, 8 years ago, I was hopeless. I was paralyzed and thought my life of normalcy was done. I was told that I would have to go to a special school for the disabled.
But, what did God say? My hope was in Jesus Christ, and He never disappoints.
In 1 John 4:4, we read that "Greater is He (Jesus) than he that is in the world."
Every battle in my life, every battle in your life has no comparison to the Greatness of Jesus Christ.
This past week I saw at Jesus Culture Los Angeles, how people would pray for those in wheelchairs and the paralyzed walked out of those chairs.
Jesus is pointing His finger at you right now, and He says, "What are you waiting on? I came to this earth, died an humiliating and painful death for you so that you might have the life John 10:10 talks about, where Jesus claims,
"10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
Believe in Jesus today, except His love, and be set free from your sin! Find hope, Find Peace!
