For The Moment…25

With praise and Thanksgiving, we go beyond just bringing requests and our petitions to the throne of grace. With boldness, we can ask God in the name of his only son, Jesus Christ, anything. That is our freedom, our boldness. Remembering God and who He is. We also praise Him.

Thine O Lord is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O, Lord, and thou art exalted as head above all. ( 1 Chronicles 29 verse 11)

His mercy endures forever.

God delivered me from mine enemies: yes, he lifted me up above those that rise up against me. Therefore, will I give thanks unto the Lord and sing praises to his name.

He is an all forgiving God. His mercy endures forever. ( adapted from Psalm 18 verses 48 and 49, Psalm 118 and Psalm 136 verses 1 to 9.

Take the whole world, but give me Jesus; no turning back, no turning back. I have decided to follow Jesus.

For The Moment…15

He clears a path that is clear and bright. He guides when you can not see straight. He gives counsel when you are confused. And he assures you of his presence so you are not alone.

Fear not for I have redeemed thee, I have called you by my name; you are mine. (Isaiah 43 verse 1)

For The Moment…15

Without faith, it is impossible to please God.

We are certain and believe in things we can not even see. (Hebrews 11 verse 1) Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

Journey to the Resurrection

Yet To Be # 309

“My God, my God why has thou forsaken me?” Matthew 27 verse 46.

This is not a question that the Lord Jesus needed to be answered.

He knew why God could not look at him. Why God had to turn his back on his only begotten son.

He knew hanging on the cross, crucified for the sake of the world he was made sin by taking our sins on himself. He became the true sacrifice.

This was the work that the Father gave him to do.

And he fulfilled this work in perfect obedience.

In perfect satisfaction to God.

“God is of purer eyes than to behold evil, and cannot look upon sin.” Habakkuk 1 verse 13.

For the Lord will not cast off forever.

But though he causes grief, yet will he have compassion.

For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning at the first blush of day when the shadows fly away. – Francis Lee

Knowing God, Loving God…

Yet To Be #279

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee because he trusteth in thee. Isaiah 26 verse 2

When we say we love God, we seek to learn more.

The more we know the sweeter to our hearts he grows;

until face to face his full beauty we will embrace.
