Bible Name of God : An Offering

An Offering

“And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given Himself for us an offering.” Ephesians. 5:2

Hear Him speaking that last night, “Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends.” What an offering for those disciples who deserted Him that wery night! He became sin for us. He said, concerning the offering of His life, “I have power to lay it down and power to take it up.” No man could take His life without His consent, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God.

Lord Jesus, we recognize Thy offering in our behalf. Help us to walk in love as Thou hast also loved us, and may our fellowship with Thee be sweet this day. Amen.

Quote of the Day -Joyce Meyer

“Many people in the world are trying to find God, and what we show them is much more important than what we tell them. It is, of course, important that we verbally share the gospel, but to do so and negate what we have said with our own behavior is worse than to say nothing.”

Acting Defeated

This is some food for thought. 

Be encouraged. 

God Bless. 

Why are you acting defeated? Did God say it was over? Just because you are tired doesn’t mean the enemy has won. Remember in your weakness, God is strong. Greater is He that is in you than anything coming against you in this world. Your hope is in God. He is the One that fights your battles. His promises are true and if He said you will win … YOU WILL WIN!!! 

 

Amen

Quote of the Day -Joyce Meyer

“When you try to understand God’s purpose for your spirit so you can have the passion He desires for you, it requires a certain amount of trust and belief. Trust that God is in control, and believe that He will give you what you need to achieve and succeed! If you struggle in this area, here are some verses to look up and some of God’s promises to think about. 1. God will never abandon you. (See Hebrews 13:5.) 2. God wants the best for you. (See Jeremiah 29:11.) 3. God wants the best from you and He will do everything He can to help. (See John 14:26.)”

God Bless. 

Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. (NLT) -1 Peter 5:8

Our modern world struggles with the idea of a devil but the Bible makes it clear that a way between good and evil is raging all around us. There is a devil and he has an army that is working to gain our allegiance. Watch out for him. Don’t let him devour you. Follow God’s way and you will stay safe from the enemy.

Tell God

Just powerful and encouraging. 

Amen and amen!

God Bless. 

Tell God thank you. You may not understand the process of why you had to go through what you had to go through but when God delivers you … JUST SAY THANK YOU. Don’t murmur and complain about the process … just be thankful for the deliverance and believe that God will restore whatever has been lost during the process. Understand … NOTHING IS LOST WITH GOD. He can give you so much more than anything you can acquire here on earth. As a matter of fact, He already has. He has given you eternal life. 

 Amen

A Prayer

God Bless. 

A Prayer for a Generous Heart

What’s your most prized possession? There’s nothing wrong with having things, or with enjoying them. The problem comes when our things have us.

Thankfully, God modeled a different way to live when He sacrificed His greatest treasure for us. His generosity is sacrificial and counter-cultural.

When we give like God does, and we honor Him with that giving, it draws us closer to Him. It causes us to stop looking at ourselves, and start looking out for others. The more we draw near to God, the more our priorities and values start to reflect His.

So, how do you live generously? It starts with asking God to give you a generous mindset. If you’re not sure how to do that, try praying this prayer.

God,

Thank You for showing me what generosity looks like. I confess that at times it’s easy for me to focus on things that don’t matter. But today, I surrender to Your will, trusting in You completely. Change the way I think, and give me a generous heart. Make me aware of the resources I have, and how I can use them to serve others. Help me to live a life that blesses others just as You have richly blessed me.

In Jesus’ name,

Amen.

Since God

Something to think about for the times qw live in.

Be encouraged. 

God Bless. 

Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. (NLT) -Colossians 3:12

What does it look like to be God’s holy people? It requires that we “clothe ourselves” with traits that reflect God’s character. We are to be people who show mercy, are kind, humble, gentle and patient.

The First

Some food for thought.

Be encouraged. 

God Bless. 

The First Begotten of the Dead

“Jesus Christ, who is…the First Begotten of the dead.” Revelation 1:5

Jesus Christ raised Lazarus from the dead, but He Himself came forth from the grave by His own power. Lazarus died again, but Jesus Christ “ever liveth to make intercession for us.” He was the first-born of the dead. He is the forerunner of the saints who shall also be raised from the dead. “But now is Christ risen from the dead and become the first-fruits of them that slept.” “We know that when He shall appear, we shall be like Him for we shall see Him as He is.” “Who shall change our vile body that it may be fashioned life unto His glorious body.”

Our Lord, we look and long for Thy coming in Thy glorified body that we may be with Thee and like Thee. Amen.
