There is salvation in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we must be saved.” – Acts 4:12(NLT)
ONLY JESUS SAVES
A poem and essay by ILMA
There is no other name that can save
Only Jesus Christ has this power to redeem
He is the only one who can take your place
He died for us all so we can be free from sin.
God has given no other name such power
It is above all and makes evil cower
Trust only in the One who can save you
He can transform you and make you new.

The Bible tells us that there is only one God in all existence (Isaiah 43:10; 44:6,8). However, it also mentions “other gods.” For example there is Adrammelech and Anammelech (2 Kings 17:31), Asherah (1 Kings 18:19), Baal (Judges 3:7), Chemosh (Num. 21:29), Dagon (1 Sam. 5:2), Molech (Lev. 18:21; 20:2-5), etc. The Bible is not contradicting itself. When the Bible speaks of other gods it is speaking of false gods that have no true existence. Gal. 4:8 says, “Formerly, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods.” See also, Isaiah 37:19 and Jeremiah 2:11. God tells us that he alone is the true God and that all of the invented gods of man do not exist except in their own minds. It also says that only Jesus can save.

RESCUE WITHOUT LIMITS Poem Devotional

He did rescue us from mortal danger, and He will rescue us again. We have placed our confidence in Him and He will continue to rescue us. – 2 Corinthians 1:10 (NLT)
RESCUE WITHOUT LIMITS
A poem and essay by ILMA
If you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ
No need to fear for any danger in your life
He is always there to rescue you anytime
Make sure you run to him at all times.
He can save you from any kind of danger
Be close to Him and don’t be a stranger
He rescues without limits to all his children
He will never abandon you until you reach heaven.
________________________________________When I was about nine years old, there was a big earthquake that shook the Philippines so badly. I remember waking up in the middle of the night being rocked on my bed. I shared a bunk bed with my brother and I was on the top part, so I felt the shaking more than him. Because most people were asleep, massive loss of lives was inevitable. Among the 270 people who died, 268 of them were buried alive in a building that collapsed, the Ruby Tower. Of the 261 injured, 260 were from the Ruby Tower as well, some of whom died later on. The search and rescue operations involved around 6,000 volunteers.
The bible tells us that he rescues without limits those whom he loves and we need not fear.

Then call on me when you are in trouble and I will rescue you, and you will give me glory.
-Psalm 50:15(NLT)
THE RESCUER
A poem and essay by ILMA
Is there something that troubles you today?
Are you so discouraged by what people say?
Does grief or pain overcome your whole being?
Run to the rescuer and he will bring you healing.
Summon Jesus when you are in distress and very weak
He promises to deliver you from any situation, just speak
Call the name above all names and he will come to you
He will give you strength, courage and change your view.

According to an article written by Kara Pendleton on how long on average it takes for a police to respond to a 911 call, as of 2013, the reported national average for police response was 11 minutes. Not many cities ‘advertise’ their response times. Of those that have numbers that have gone public, the most recent data shows that emergency calls dispatched through 911 are not generating the quick response times the public would like. According to the latest Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) data (2008), police response times when violent crimes were called in ranged from under 5 minutes to longer than one day. Can you imagine how much life was at risk when there is no response right away?
The bible asks us to call on Jesus and he will instantly rescue you.
