Listening and Doing

Dear all,
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15: 13

Word: – My-grace-is-sufficient-for-you
My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires. Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. James 1:19-21
Thought:
It is important to listen to what God’s Word says, but it is much more important to obey it and to do what it says, We can measure the effectiveness of our Bible Study time by the effect it has on our behavior and attitudes.

Do you put into action what you have studied?

My soul clings to You

Dear all,
Greetings in the mighty name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Word: Psalms 63: 1 -8
O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly; My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, In a dry and weary land where there is no water.2 Thus I have seen You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory. Because Your loving kindness is better than life, My lips will praise You. So I will bless You as long as I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name. My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness, And my mouth offers praises with joyful lips. When I remember You on my bed, I meditate on You in the night watches, For You have been my help, And in the shadow of Your wings I sing for joy. My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me.

Thought:
In these Bible verses King David reviewed all the ways God had already helped him, and he greeted the next day with songs of praise. In our quiet moments or wakeful nights, make it a point to count examples of God’s faithfulness to us. Doing so is far more likely to give us rest than any other items we might count!

Spiritual Rebirth In Christ Jesus

Dear all,
Greetings in the mighty name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Word: Heart of the Gospel:
Jesus answered and said to him, “Truly, Truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the Kingdom of God”. John 3: 3
37
Thought: To Know Him is to Love Him – Deuteronomy 34: 10 and Colossians 1: 15-20
What do I know about God?
1. Knowing Christ Jesus is expressed in “Belief” in Christ now and eternally. Prayer is the power of that “Belief”. Plug in to the prayer power.
2. Life is God’s gift for the exercising of that “Belief” and is given one day at a time.
3. Looking back in our lives we should be able to see Christ character and nature increasing and our nature decreasing.

Faith Journey

Dear all,
Be strong in the Lord and His mighty power. Ephesians 6: 10
Word: Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. May your gracious Spirit lead me forward on a firm footing. Psalms 143:10
Psalms 23: 3 and 4 says, He guides me along right paths bringing honor to His name. Even though when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me.
abraham-and-isaac

God of Peace

Dear all,
Greetings in the mighty name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Word:
1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass.
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Thessalonians+5%3A23-24&version=NASB
Thought:
The Spirit, soul and body refer not so much to the distinct parts of a person as to the entire being of a person. This expression is Paul’s way of saying that God must be involved in every aspect of a person’s life – thoughts, conducts, how we act, how we react in difficult situations, words, language, decisions etc.

Looking ahead with Christ Jesus as our role model

Dear all,

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Let us praise our Lord and forget not all His benefits. His grace is new every day. No matter what the circumstances are, He is with us and He is carrying us on His Shoulders. When you trust Him, by faith we can see His works in our life and through our life. Let us ask God to give us the eyes to see His glory.

Word: Christ Jesus is touched by the people’s needs – Matthew 9: 36 – 38.

Looking ahead with Christ Jesus as our role model.

29

Thought: Christ Jesus saw the harvest as: Plentiful, Precious, Perplexed, Perishing and Priority. As believers of Christ Jesus our lives are to resemble Jesus’s life, having the same priorities, values and concerns.

Have a Victorious walk in Christ Jesus.

Jesus is the way to the Father

Dear all,
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Word: Jesus is the way to the Father
John 14
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+14
Jesus is the Way
Thought: Jesus is the way to the Father – This is one of the most basic and important passages in Scripture. How can we know the way to God? Only through Christ Jesus. Trust Jesus to take you to the Father, and all the blessings in Christ Jesus of being God’s child will be yours.
