No Problem!
Pat
was a man who worried. Problem followed problem in his life. He
ended up taking Valium and sleeping tablets; each day he smoked
eighty cigarettes and drank fifteen pints of beer. His life was
a life of torment. But he would tell you now that he has not had
one bad day for many years. He is now free of all addictions and
every day is a worry-free day. No one could get rid of so many
problems alone. He found The Way!
Daisy was blind in one eye but was able to read using her other
eye with the aid of glasses. Now she can read without glasses,
using the eye that was blind! This amazing miracle happened as
a result of being prayed for. Her vision no longer gives her any
problem. Daisy is glad she found The Way.
Pat and Daisy took four vital steps to get into a position to
have their problems solved.

Step
1: Realise that God loves us: “For God loved the world
so much that He gave His only Son so that anyone who believes
in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)
Step 2: Realise that sin separates us from God. “Yes, all
have sinned; all fall short of God’s glorious ideal.”
(Romans 3;23)
Step 3: Believe that Jesus is God’s remedy for our sin;
we can get to God only through Jesus. Jesus said, "I am
The Way--yes, and the Truth and the Life. No one can get to
the Father except by means of me.” (John 14:6 ) It’s
not enough just to know these facts, we must take the next step
Step 4: Receive Jesus Christ. “But to all who received
Him, He gave the right to become children of God. All they needed
to do was to trust Him to save them. All those who believe this
are reborn!” (John 1:12-13) To receive Jesus into your
life, say this prayer – and really mean it!
“Lord Jesus, I am sorry that I have sinned by doing things
my way instead of yours, please forgive me. Thank You for dying
to take away my sins. Please come into my life, sort out my
problems and make me the person you want me to be. Amen.”
From now on we strongly advise the following:
a) Read some Bible verses every day; God speaks to us through
the Bible.
b) Pray every day. In this way, we speak to God and find that
He both hears and answers prayer.
c) Regularly attend a church with born-again Christians, such
as a Pentecostal church.
d) Spend as much time as possible with other born-again Christians;
they know the type of problems you will face, and can really
help you.
We at Emmanuel have experienced our share of problems and found
The Way through them. You can learn, with us, to say in the
face of difficulties –
– – No
Problem!
