Day 17 of God’s Love for Us
September 15, 2017
“”Do not be afraid of them, For I am with you to deliver you,” declares the Lord. ” (Jeremiah 1:8) This is important because when we trust in the Lord and we hear His voice, rather than the negative naysayers in our own head, we can be bold, we don’t have to be skeptical. He knows the plan for us, all we have to do is trust Him and be obedient. Skeptical and afraid is disobedience.
What God do we Serve? September 13, 2017 I was listening to a conference call this past weekend and the person speaking asked this question, ”What God do you serve? Do you serve the God of abundance and purpose, or do you serve the god of fear, doubt, pain and distraction?” His question has intrigued me for days. His point was simple and effective. Any dirivative of fear or lack is not from God! God gave us all individual gifts and talents, it is our mission to find them and use them for His glory. God also gave us the Read More
Day 16 of God’s Love for Us “For as by one man’s (Adam’s) disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s (Jesus’s) obedience many will be made rightous.”(Romans 5:19) When Adam disobeyed God in the Garden of Eden, he condemned all mankind to live in a world filled with temptation and sin, creating a barrier to having a relationship with God. But Jesus, who was perfect, died blameless and sinless, was risen from the dead to overcome death, gave us the ability to overcome the temptations and sinfullness of this world and have a relationship with God.

“Great are the works of the Lord; They are studied by all who delight in them. Splendid and majestic is His work,…He has made His wonders to be remembered;”(Psalm 111:2-4) Aren’t we His works? Yes we are…Yes you are!!! Hallelujah for that thought. There is strength, power, honor, and dignity in that thought when you let it sink into your heart.
Day 14 of God’s Love for Us August 26, 2017 Paul wrote to the Romans, and to the world about Jesus, “Through whom we have received grace and an apostleship to bro g about the obedience of faith among all the Gentiles (non-Jews of the world (us)) for His name’s sake, among whom you are the called of Jesus Christ; to all who are beloved of God… called as saints…”(Romans 1:5-7) We are called by God, and chosen by God to be His beloved. He calls us to Himself to have a relationship with Him through His son Jesus by Read More
Day 13 of God’s Love for Us August 8, 2017 A friend sent me a blog post from Lysa Terkeurst today, in it was this message, “God’s love isn’t based on me…Its simply placed on me…” That made me think deeply. Then as I was reading the suggested passages from Our Daily Bread, I came across this scripture to help back up that thought, “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works (our individual talents, dreams, goals, and mission), which God prepared beforehand so that we may walk in them(those talents, dreams, goals, and His mission)” Read More
Day 12 of God’s Love for Us August 2, 2017 “Oh my soul, you are not alone, There’s a place where fear has to face the God you know.”(Mark Hall, Casting Crowns lyrics) Fear does not come from God. Fear comes from Satan, meant to hold us back and keep us from our highest ability and glorifying God. If we really grasp this concept, then we will understand Phillippians 4:13 better, where Paul says, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” If we believe that Jesus is stronger than our fears, then we can also live like Read More
