I AM SO GLAD

I AM SO GLAD
I start this write up with the lyrics from a hymn:
I am so glad that our Father in heaven
Tells of his love in the book he has given
Wonderful things in the bible I see
This is the dearest, that JESUS loves me
JESUS loves me, and I know I love him
Love brought HIM down my poor soul to redeem
Yes, it was love made him die on the tree
Oh, I am so glad, that JESUS loves me
I am so glad, that JESUS loves me
JESUS loves even me
We should be glad someone loves us this much. I have seen mothers forget their child, but GOD doesn’t forget us. Isaiah 49 vs.15: Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee. Even though we forget HIM and wander away from HIM, he still loves us. Let’s replicate GOD’s love back to HIM. Let us love HIM, because he first loved us. Nothing should separate us from the love of GOD. We are to be persuaded like Apostle Paul, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, should be able to separate us from the love of GOD. JESUS said Thou shalt love the LORD thy GOD with all thy hearts, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind; which is the first and great commandment. Loving GOD is us loving what he loves and hating what he hates. John 14 vs.15: if ye love me, keep my commandments. We are to keep GOD’s word and will. GOD loves righteousness, we are to love righteousness. GOD hates iniquity, we should hate iniquity.

             Finally, 1 Corinthians 2 vs.9: But as it is written, eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which GOD hath prepared for them that love him. Hebrew 1vs.9: Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore GOD, even thy GOD, hath anointed thee with oil of gladness above thy fellow. The bible said all things work together for good to them that love GOD, to them who are the called according to his purpose. I am the called, You are the called, We are the called. Let us love GOD by doing what pleases HIM. Let us receive the love He offers and be reconciled to GOD It is well with us..

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY Integrity is a word which means steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. It also means the quality or condition of being complete and pure. It could also mean honesty, uprightness, purity, sincerity, decency, virtuous and wholeness. To retain is to keep in possession and maintain something. Many a time people find it difficult retaining their integrity. It takes determination to stand on your integrity. Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. GOD is a lover of men of integrity. Daniel 1 vs. 8-9: But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. Now GOD had brought Daniel into favor and tender love wi...

WORK ON THE WORD 2!

WORK ON THE WORD 2! David knew the essence of working on GOD’s word. He wrote in Psalm 33 vs. 4 (NIV): For the word of the LORD is right and true, he is faithful in all he does. He also hid GOD’s word in his heart that he might not sin against HIM. Psalm 119 vs. 11: Your words have I hidden in my heart that I might not sin against you. Storing GOD’s word in our heart and doing according to it is working on the word. Keeping GOD’s commandment is working on his word. Proverbs 7 vs. 1-2: My sons, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with you. Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of your eye.               Furthermore, working on GOD’s word is being the hearer and doer of the word. James wrote in James 1 vs. 22-24:  But be you doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer; he is like to a man beholding his natur...

AN OUTCAST

AN OUTCAST An outcast is one that has been excluded from a society or system. He is labeled a beggar. He is an outsider. An outcast is a person that lacks care. An outcast is neglected and overlooked. He is demoralized. He is wounded in heart. He is labeled whom no one cares. He is one that has lost hope. He is one who is frustrated and dejected. He is one who is always deep in thoughts and sorrowful. He is one who lives like a foreigner in his own land. He is one who is distressed. He is one who gets dispossessed of his possessions. He is one who is perplexed. He is one who is troubled on every side. He is one who is despair. He is afraid of tomorrow. CHRIST came that we might have a restored hope. He came to bare that burden of ours. He came to give us that expected end. He came that we might have peace. He came that we might be healed . Isaiah 53 vs. 5: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and w...
