The sheep that are My own

The sheep that are My own hear and are listening to My voice; and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never lose it or perish throughout the ages. [To all eternity they shall never by any means be destroyed.] And no one is able to snatch them out of My hand. 
John 10:27-28 AMP

Let's start with some questions today. Are you one of Jesus sheep? Are you in a place where you can hear and listen to Jesus? Does Jesus know you? Are you His follower?

The book of revelation has this to say about those who hear, listen and take heed to what the Spirit says.

He who is able to hear, let him listen to and give heed to what the Spirit says to the assemblies (churches). To him who overcomes (is victorious), I will grant to eat [of the fruit] of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God. Revelation 2:7 AMP

He who is able to hear, let him listen to and heed what the Spirit says to the assemblies (churches). He who overcomes (is victorious) shall in no way be injured by the second death. Revelation 2:11 AMP

He who is able to hear, let him listen to and heed what the Spirit says to the assemblies (churches). To him who overcomes (conquers), I will give to eat of the manna that is hidden, and I will give him a white stone with a new name engraved on the stone, which no one knows or understands except he who receives it. Revelation 2:17 AMP

If we choose to hear, listen and heed the Spirit, all of those promises are available to us, eating of the tree of life in the paradise of God; not being injured by the second death; being given the new manna and a new name.  

The gift of eternal life is made available to us through Jesus. When we are in Jesus we are overcomers, we are victorious, we are conquerors.

Little children, you are of God [you belong to Him] and have [already] defeated and overcome them [the agents of the antichrist], because He Who lives in you is greater (mightier) than he who is in the world. 1 John 4:4 AMP

But thanks be to God, Who gives us victory [making us conquerors] through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:57 AMP

Today, let's declare that we are Jesus sheep, His followers who hear, listen and heed the Spirit. We are overcomers, conquerors and victorious in Jesus name.

All nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them [the people] from one another as a shepherd separates his sheep from the goats; And He will cause the sheep to stand at His right hand, but the goats at His left. Then the King will say to those at His right hand, Come, you blessed of My Father [you, favoured of God and appointed to eternal salvation], inherit (receive as your own) the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. Matthew 25:32-34 AMP
