Inspiring, Educating and Mobilizing the Church
So that you may understand
Our loving Heavenly Father always desires to shed light on, to illuminate His Word so we will understand. He greatly desires that we come to know Him more, as much as He knows us.
There is no limit to the depth of our understanding of His Word.
The Word is alive, because Jesus is alive and Jesus is the Word.
Let it come to life for you everyday.
What do you need to see today?
Question: If you’re walking in the dark, where do you need a light to shine?
Answer: In front of you. No one shines a light behind where they’ve already been.
It’s the same with God’s Word. We need the light of God’s truth and direction to guide us every step of every day.
Understanding God’s reasons for what He has said in His Word helps us receive and embrace His Word.
Join me during June as we ask God to shine His light on our path through His Word, every morning.
If you’ve been saved by inviting Jesus into your heart, God’s plan is growth. One way we do this is through daily Bible reading.
We’ve probably all read something that convicted us of our sin…something we were doing that “missed the mark” of God’s best for us.
Key point: Children of God are CONVICTED, NOT CONDEMNED!
God’s Word convicts us by the Holy Spirit to learn and follow God’s ways. When we are convicted, we choose to change our behavior.
Always remember, it is the devil who condemns, not GOD. In Christ, you are NOT condemned! Romans 8:1
Join me in May’s Bible readings as we begin our study of “why” God says what He does.
Character Matters!
Growing in character requires a commitment to grow in and with Jesus Christ.
Tips to Know Him More:
1. Seek Him:
2. Spend Time With Him:
Pray continually.
3. Worship Him:
Then the man said, “Lord, I believe,” and he worshiped him.
Do you recall a time when you wish you had paid better attention to something?
Maybe you reaped poor results from a choice.
Paying attention to God’s Word can bring us wisdom to make good choices that bring good results.
Esther was forced to make a choice.
What choice will you make today?
The Bible includes over 400 verses that include the words “If you”. Many of these verses are followed by an explanation of the results of making the choice or not making it.
We have responsibility for each choice and the results we receive. The wonderful news is we can know God’s plan for our choices before we make them.
The more we seek to know God’s perspective on our choices, the better our lives will be.
Every day we make choices.
Good choices = Good results.
Poor choices = Poor results.
The best opportunity to get good results comes from making choices aligned with God’s recommendations. I call them recommendations, because God always leaves the choice to us.
Throughout 2021, we’ll learn what God has to say about choices.
If you pay attention to these laws and are careful to follow them, then the Lord your God will keep his covenant of love with you, as he swore to your ancestors.
