God’s love is far, far different from the world’s love. His love is never forced. It is always freely given. In 1 John 4:7-21 we’re given a glimpse of the magnitude of this love of God!
We have so very much to be thankful for today! The Psalm writer reminds us in Psalm 116:16-18 and throughout scripture of the need to give thanks to our Creator. Friends, if we’d take more time thanking God for what we have, a lot of the world’s troubles would be no more. Let us thank…
As we follow God, we should come to expect great things from God as we attempt great things for Him. Isaiah, in Isaiah 54:1-4, wanted Israel to trust God, to enlarge the place of their tent, to prepare for what God had for them. Today, what are we doing? What are our expectations?
Jesus Christ is the Light of the world, and as His followers, we’re to be reflecting that light to those around us. Ephesians 5:1-20 reminds us of the importance of being a light in a dark world so that others may find eternal life. Will you let your light shine today?
Jesus makes a statement in Luke 12:1-5 that we should all take to heart, in summary – fear your Creator Who controls your eternity. As we learn to love God and walk with Him, we’ll see our relationship with Jesus grow to one of love and a desire to please Him.
Are you ready to meet God? Or would you be left with things you wish you’d done? 1 Peter 3:10-16 contends that we should always be ready! Ready to meet God, ready to share the Gospel, ready to help. Are you ready?
Friend, you have a choice to make in this life – will you fear the Lord? Psalm 34:8-9 speaks of the benefit that comes to those that fear the Lord as we acknowledge the One that created us, the One that saved us, and the One that provides safety.
2 Corinthians 1:3-7 reminds us that as believers, God is our comforter. We can take all things to Him at all times and He will be there for us.
The world has lost the fear of the Lord as they seek to do whatever they want. As a result, we see more and more chaos and disorder. Yet the Bible reminds us in Proverbs 19:23 that the fear of the Lord is necessary for a satisfied, peaceful life.
The freedom we have in Christ – do we believe it? Do we live it? Do we recognize the freedom from guild and daily fears? John 8:31-36 encourages us to be free from these things and enjoy our salvation through Christ our Savior.
