Bible Verse of The Day – 2-1-14

1 John 2:28 (NKJV) And now, little children, abide in Him, that when He appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming.

This should be the goal of each and every one of us.

As we walk through life on this earth, we should have one objective; to walk as Christ walked, so that when we are face to face with Him, we will not be ashamed.

This is God’s heart for each of us, that we would live out the example that we have been given in the life of Jesus.

It isn’t easy and we can never do it on our own, but with the help of The Holy Spirit, we can allow God to guide us and direct us, drawing us ever closer to Him.

We all slip and make mistakes at different times, but it’s no reason to get down on ourselves.

Let God pick you back up, brush the dirt off of you and set you back on His path for your life.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-11-14

Micah 6:8 (NKJV)8 He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?

So what does God require of us?

To do justly – do the right thing; the thing that pleases Him.

To love mercy – to learn to show mercy to others, just as He has shown mercy to us.

To walk humbly with your God – humility is the key to a successful relationship with our God. If we can learn to humble ourselves before Him, there will be nothing that stops us from pressing into Him and learning to love Him with our whole heart.

Humility is also the key to successful relationships of every kind, whether it be your marriage, your career or anything else. If we can be humble, admit when we’re wrong, heed counsel and correction and learn to listen to others, we will go very far.

Do justly, love mercy and walk humbly with your God.

Enjoy your weekend.

Bible Verse of The Day – 9-3-13

(1 John 2:16-17 NKJV)  For all that is in the world; the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life; is not of the Father but is of the world. {17} And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.

There are three things that we need to watch out for, 1. lust of the flesh, 2. lust of the eyes, and 3. pride of life. God’s word tells us that these three things are NOT of Him, but of the world. If we chase after these things of the world, the next verse (17) tells us that the world is passing away.

What happens if we are chasing after anything in general? It means that the thing we are chasing is leading us. It leads us to wherever it is going.

Passing away is another word for death. So where will these three things lead us to? To death; death in our relationship with Christ, death in our relationship with our spouse, death in our relationship with our family, etc. Death means, the END!

But thank God for the last part of verse (17) it explains to us that if we follow God and His Word, we will abide forever! Amen.

Today, let us choose His will over what the lust of the flesh says, over the lust of the eyes, and over our pride, that we may abide FOREVER!
