The Greatest is Love

" But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us. " Ephesians 2:4 What makes love so amazing? For starters, it is what motivated the Father to send His only Son to die for us. Without love, there would have been no redemption. Not only would we be without love, but without the redemption that was precipitated by love, there would also be no faith, and no hope. You see, nothing else matters, without love. It is foundational for every other good thing in our lives. PRAYER FOR THE DAY Our Father in Heaven, Today many people forgot how to love another and today it is easy to criticize those close to me; but Lord, give me your unreserved love so that they may know how deeply I appreciate them through God's love. We grateful that our Father show His love toward world. In Jesus Christ's name amen! Thank you for your time to read this message and hope to open your heart and mind to understand what is the greatest is love. Have a blessing day!

How can we trust God when we are facing Unemployment, Foreclosure or Bankruptcy?

The loss of employment or income is one of the most distressing events in life, especially for those supporting a family. Man or Woman facing unemployment, foreclosure or bankruptcy, there can be additional doubts about God's goodness and His promises to provide for His children. How are the people to react to these catastrophic life events? What Biblical principles can we apply to the loss of a home or a job and benefits. Work is described in the Bible as beneficial in that it provides for our needs; Proverbs 14:23; Ecclesiastes 2:24, 3:13, 5:18-19 and gives us the resources to share with other in need Ephesians 4:28 . At the same time, it may not be possible to find a positioin equal in pay and status to the one that was lost. In these cases, Christian should not allow pride to keep them from taking jobs in other fields, even if it means lowered status or less pay, at least temporarily. We should lso be willing to accept help from other believers and our churches, perhaps in e

Need Him: Finding God

Matthew 11:28-30 28" Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. " 29" Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. " 30" For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. " God has a plan for you. What is it? Is your life hard? Jesus saids, " Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest ." Matthew 11:28 Do you feel Lonely? " I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you ." John 14:18 Is your Guilt getting to you? " The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. " John 1:29 God loves you as his child, and wants you to enjoy a relationship with Him. He is the answer to your search for that ultimate relationship. He will fill the hole in your heart. He is the one Creator of the Universe and all it contains, including

Need Him: Finding God

Colossians 1:15-20 15"Who is the image of the invisible God, the first born of every creature:" 16"For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:" 17"And he is before all things, and by him all things consist." 18"And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence." 19"For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;" 20"And, having mad peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven." Maybe its time to try God. Not "God" the philosophy. GOD, the living Creator of the universe. More than a concept, he is a Person, a Deity. He is someone who kn

Need Him: Finding God

John 14:1-6 1"Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me." 2"In my Father's house are many mansion: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you." 3"And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also." 4"And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know." 5"Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?" 6"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." Something is not complete between you and God, but you are not sure what you are missing. Perhaps you have had these thoughts: I try to live a good life I try to be a good person I obey the Ten Commandments (mostly) I am nice and don't steal or kill. You are good person. You try to be the best you can be, try to do what is right most of the time a

Need Him: Finding God

Day 1 Revelation 3:20-22 20"Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me." 21"To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne." 22"He hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches." Why am I here? How do I beat this loneliness? What makes my life so hard? Where is that one special relationship? In the moment, you feel like something's missing, something's wrong in your world. Like perhaps there's something you have not done, or someone you don't know but are supposed to. At times you feel you have found it, perhaps in a love relationship, but that feeling never seems to last. Every relationship, even good ones, leave you with this hole in your heart. Something isn't right, but you cannot find it or fix it. So you keep looking, tryin

Children of Light

"You, brethren, are not in darkness...You are all sons of light." 1 Thessalonians 5:4-5 The Born-again Christian sees life not as a blurred, confused, meaningless mass, but as something planned and purposeful. His eyes have been opened to spiritual truth. Jesus said that one of the reason He had come to earth was to preach "recovery of sight to the blind" (Luke 4:18). By nature we are all spiritually blind because of sin. But the Spirit of God helps us see our sin and our helplessness and show us God's redeeming grace in Christ. The Spirit reveals the truth of Jesus declaration: "I am the light of the world. He who follows me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life" (John 8:12). We are no longer in the dark-we know where we came from, we know why we are here, and we know where we are going. In the midst of a world living in spiritual darkness, walk as a child of the light!
