(Romans 6.8).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Now if we died with Christ, we believe
that we will also live with Him.
(Romans 6.8).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds.
(Hebrews 10.24).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and
purify us from all unrighteousness.
(I. John 1.8 & 9).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
We know also that the Son of God has come and
has given us understanding, so that we may know Him
Who is true. And we are in Him Who is true- even
in His Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
Dear children, keep yourselves from idols.
(I. John 5. 20 & 21).
Avoid false teachings and incorrect concepts of God.
Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life.
No one comes to the Father except through Him.
(John 14.6).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
I write these things to you who believe in the name
of the Son of God so that you may know that you have
eternal life. This is the confidence we have in approaching
God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears
us- whatever we ask- we know that we have what we asked
of Him.
(I.John 5.13-15).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God,
God lives in him and he in God. And so we know and
rely on the love God has for us.
(I. John 4. 15 & 16).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us,
we have confidence before God and receive
from Him anything we ask, because we obey
His commands and do what pleases Him.
And this is His command: to believe in the
name of His Son, Jesus Christ, and to love
one another as He commanded us. Those
who obey His commands live in Him, and
He in them. And this is how we know that
He lives in us: We know it by the Spirit He
gave us.
(I. John 3.21-24).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
WE DARE
This is in accordance with
the terms of the eternal
and timeless purpose which
He has realized and carried
into effect in Christ Jesus
our Lord.
In whom, because of our
faith in Him we dare to have
the boldness (courage and
confidence) free access (an
unreserved approach to
God with freedom and
without fear.
(Ephesians 3.11 and 12)
POINTS FOR PRAISE
AND MEDITATION
1) God’s plan and purpose
for humanity was effected
through Jesus Christ who
is divine and human.
2) This is why in Him and by
thorough faith in Him we now
dare have free,
unhindered and confident
access to God.
HALLELUJAH!
THANK YOU LORD JESUS!
THE LOVE OF THE FATHER
See what an incredible quality of love
the Father has given us, that we should
be permitted to be named the children
of God!
And so we are!
The reason the world does not know
us is that it does not know Him.
Beloved, we are even here and now
God’s children.
It is not yet made clear what we shall
be, but we know that when He comes
and is manifested, we shall as God’s
children resemble and be like Him,
for we shall see Him just as he really is.
(I.John 3.1&2).
EVEN WE OURSELVES
For we know that the whole creation
groans and labors with birth pains
together until now.
Not only the creation, but we ourselves
too, who have and enjoy the first fruits
of the Holy Spirit, even we
ourselves groan within ourselves
eagerly waiting for the redemption
of our bodies which will reveal our
adoption as God’s sons.
( Romans 8. 22 and 23).
MEDITATION POINTS
Meditate about the following:
1) The entire creation is awaiting the
manifestation of God’s children.
2) The entire creation groans and labors
in labor pains until then.
3) We also who have and enjoy the
firstfruits of the Holy Spirit ( a foretaste
of the blissful world to come) groan inwardly
as we wait for the redemption of our bodies,
which will reveal our adoption and our
manifestation as God’s children.
4) Then the entire world will enjoy the
happiness, satisfaction and fulfillment
of knowing Jesus Christ.
