Your First 40 Days as a Follower of Jesus

Welcome to the Kingdom of God. Your decision to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior changes everything. You have been born again. You have now been separated from your sin. Your very name has been written into the Lamb’s Book of Life. You have entered into an everlasting life as a child of the living God. This is cause for great celebration in Heaven and on earth.

 

The articles below will help you on your journey of discovering your new life with Jesus.

Welcome!

Jesus came to earth as God’s way of demonstrating that He longs to be close to His creation. There is nothing more satisfying than getting to know the love of God. Each day brings the promise of fresh fulfillment with His joy. He is the way, the truth, and the life.

The reason for your first birth has been fulfilled—you have come to know God. Just as a newborn baby has unique needs, so does a newborn believer in our Lord Jesus. This is your opportunity to start your new life by learning how to daily walk with our Messiah.

We invite you to make My First 40 Days With the Lord a personal record of your new beginning with the Lord. This will be a lifelong journey of discovering the depth of your Father’s love for all people.

The Word of God has been given to us as a blueprint for living. Within the Bible’s pages you will find unending treasures. May this book be your companion as you grow in faith and study the Holy Scriptures.

Many new believers start their Bible reading with the Book of John. Within, you will be able to acquaint yourself with some of the best-known verses from John’s Gospel and see how they are intertwined with each of the books of the Jewish Scriptures. Our desire is for you to gain both an appreciation for the roots of our faith and revelations of God’s design.

We encourage you to carve out a few minutes each day when you can sit quietly and enjoy the presence of our Lord. You will swiftly discover that He awaits you, always.

Godspeed!
