It’s all about the love!

God is the purest Love!

He loves usGod is love! Ephesians 3:19 May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. God wants to know us on a personal level he yearns to be our friend John 15:15 “I have called you friends” When we become one of his friends we then fall under his protection Jeremiah 29:11-14 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you,” declares the Lord”. Through his love he sends you help through the holy spirit and his angels Hebrews 1 14 Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation? He loves us so much that he gave his only son so that we will be saved John 3 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned

Could you throw it!
Could you throw it!

Dear Heavenly Father, please help me to have a kind heart, one that understands that no one is perfect. There was only one who was perfect Lord and that was you, the only way for me to become more like you is to spend more time with you accepting your sacrifice. Help me to forgive those who have done me wrong accepting that they are human just like me who make mistakes,  help merecognize that we all have issues that we are working out. In Jesus Name Amen.

John 8: “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.”

What God do you Serve?

Bible Whos your godDear Heavenly Father, please help show the things that I have in my life that are interfering with the fullest relationship I can possibly have with you Lord. Take away the items that are in me that restrict the bond that I yearn to have with you. Make evident everything that is in the way lord. In Jesus Name Amen.

I was having a discussion with a good friend the other day about what we make important in our lives. It reminded me of something; it always stuck out in my head ever since I was a child when it happened. This “Loony old Fart” would always talk about the Gods that people serve and all of the Gods that human beings have. This guy upset me “How dare he blasphemy Gods name”, as I have gotten older and understand things a little more. God has enlightened my view point; I understand what that “Loony old Fart” was talking about. The definition of IDOLATRY:

1: the worship of a physical object as a god

2: immoderate attachment or devotion to something

In this definition the second meaning is what he has illuminated on. An attachment or devotion to something kind of makes you think. I have a few of these attachments; fishing, hunting and cars to name a few. I could make a much larger list but basically anything that you cannot bring yourself to live without. God has the best definition: Colossians 3:5 Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. Which leads into another avenue that most people do not think about, like the other, I have a problem with this one every once in a while. Definition: ARROGANCE: an attitude of superiority manifested in an overbearing manner or in presumptuous claims or assumptions. This is Gods Definition: 1 Samuel 15: 23 Arrogance like the evil of idolatry. In these two verses we have a lot to think about! Or at least I do, that “Crazy old Fart” was not crazy after all he was just using the shock and awe method. It stuck with me and made so that it was something that I contemplated for years before God showed me what was meant by what he had said. So Which God do You Serve?

Bible guideDear Heavenly Father, as I face this day of unknowns please surround me with your love always showing me the right paths I should take. Help me understand the things that I do not understand and aid me in my flight to gain more humility before you and others lord. In Jesus Name Amen

We are not the only ones that ask for help in Psalm 119: 10 I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands. God, time and again will answer: Proverbs 3: 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;  in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. So when we believe that we know what God has planed for us it is best to sit down and ask him Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. There is a reason why you have journeyed down the path you are on John 15: 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you. Always remember this, he will take care of you in every aspect of your life even when it seems hopeless he is there with his hand out guiding us through what we are doing.

A light of the World!

Bible ready

Dear Heavenly Father, Shine brightly and show me the path you want me to travel. Rebuke anything trying to attack me and steer me in the right direction, lighting the way for a great day. In Jesus Name Amen

John 8:12  “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

What do you want?

Bible what do you wantJohn 1:38 Jesus saw them following and asked, “What do you want?”

Reading the bible this morning God gave me something that slapped me in the back of the head. Have you ever asked yourself why am I following Jesus? I know that with the awesome music that our fellow Christians have created has shown so many people who the lord is. I ask that you sit down and ask yourself am I following Jesus because he is the one and only savior that died for my sins or am I following Jesus because it is “cool”. “In the Life Application Study Bible” it gave me something to think about: Following Christ is not enough; we must follow him for the right reasons. To follow Christ for our own purposes would be asking Christ to follow us to align with us to support and advance out our cause, not his.

Dear Heavenly Father, Open my eyes to see what the path is that you want me travel. I know that you have said that the path to righteousness is narrow please guide my steps so that I do not trip and fall off of this path! In Jesus Name Amen

Whom Shall I Fear

Pursuing

Bible word of godLord, Please help me to understand what you are trying to tell me. Guide me through these words and share with me what it is that I need to do. In Jesus name AMEN

This morning God put on my heart to share what he wants. People ask how should I believe, what should I follow, or what is real. The bible puts it best: Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. If you want to know what you should do, sit down pray for guidance and pick up the bible. When you pray for guidance he will share with you what he wants you to do, how he wants you to do it, and when.
