But the things which God announced beforehand by the mouth of all the prophets, that His Christ would suffer, He has thus fulfilled.

Father, may we all, who profess your name, be telling a lost world, the Good News, that our souls were bought with a price, that we can never repay, by Jesus perfect life, his giving of himself for us, out of perfect love, that we might be rescued from ourselves, to a new life in him. Your word never returns empty, and YOUR LOVE NEVER FAILS.

God With US!

How great, the fathers love for us, that he would truly, give the gift, that keeps on giving. We can’t earn it, we don’t deserve it, but can accept it, and treasure it in our hearts, and tell all of how it has changed us. God truly is with us, as Jesus left his Holy Spirit, to indwell us and guide us in our path. Is that not worth sharing?

He Restores my Soul. Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life, And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Our Love, is a reflection of our devotion to following Jesus. That devotion, will show in our relationships with our fellow believers and also to those who don’t know Jesus. How are we doing with this?

Read CAREFULLY. This does not say some people, it says ALL! Forgive me Lord, when I selectively choose who I Love and who I don’t. I would be in severe trouble if you did that to me. Give us your compassion for helping you restore lost souls through your son Jesus.

In my own strength, I would not have the capacity to love, but Paul says, in Philippians, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. –Lord, through your strength, help me to love others who are unlovable, just as I was to you.–

My question for us today, is what will we do today for someone, because of the tremendous blessings we have been given, in Christ Jesus? I know my wife and I have several things in mind. May we freely give, as we have been given today.

What God Requires of Man……….

bible.com/bible/100/mic.6.8.NASB1995

With what shall I come to the LORD

And bow myself before the God on high? Shall I come to Him with burnt offerings, With yearling calves? 7Does the LORD take delight in athousands of rams, In ten thousand rivers of oil? Shall I present my firstborn for my rebellious acts, The fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? 8He has atold you, O man, what is good?

Micah’s terse response (v. 8) indicated they should have known the answer to the rhetorical question. Spiritual blindness had led them to offer everything except the one thing He wanted—a spiritual commitment of the heart from which right behavior would ensue (cf. Dt 10:12–19; Mt 22:37–39). This theme is often represented in the OT (cf. 1Sa 15:22; Is 1:11–20; Jer 7:21–23; Hos 6:6; Am 5:15).
