Promises for a New Year\nThe Promise Jesus Made. Pastor Michael Dascoli\nMarch 7, 2021\n\nTherefore Jesus said again, \u201cVery truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. 8 All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. 9 I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture. 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\u201d. John 10:7-10\n\nJesus promises life to the full \n\n\u201cLife to the full\u201d is the result of being properly connected to Jesus\n\n\u201cI am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, \nyou will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.\u201d John 15:5\n\nTHIS CONNECTION TO JESUS IS EXPERIENCED BY\u2026\n\n-Believing and Receiving\n\n\u201cYet to all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His name, \nHe gave the right to become children of God.\u201d John 1:12\n\n"I am the gate. Whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal, and kill, and destroy. I have come that they may have life and have it to the full." John 10:9-10\n\n-Trusting and obeying \n\n\u201cHe calls His own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 When He has brought out all His own, He goes on ahead of them, and His sheep follow Him because they know His voice.\u201d\nJohn 10:3-4\n\n35 Going a little farther, Jesus fell to the ground and prayed that if possible the hour might pass from Him. 36 \u201cAbba, Father,\u201d He said, \u201ceverything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.\u201d Mark 14:35-26\n\n-Loving and serving \n\n\u201cBeloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God\u2026 We love because he first loved us." 1John 4:7, 19 NKJV\n\nLet\u2019s Pray:\n\t-What is God\u2019s Spirit saying to you today?\n\t-How must you respond?
