HOW GREAT

Oh, how great is Your goodness,

which You have laid up for those

who fear, revere and worship You,

goodness which You have wrought

for those who trust and take refuge

in You before the sons of men!

(Psalm 31.19).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

NO FEAR IN LOVE

There is no fear in love.

But perfect love drives out fear,

because fear has to do with punishment.

The one who fears is not made perfect in love.

(I. John 4.18).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

WE KNOW

We know that we live in Him and He in us, because

He has given us of His Spirit. And we have seen and

testify that the Father has sent His Son to be the Savior

of the world. 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 of God for us.

God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God

in him. In this way, love is made complete among us so

that we will have confidence on the day of judgement,

because in this world we are … Continue Reading

IN THE TIME

In the time of Herod king of Judea there was a priest

named Zechariah, who belonged to the priestly division

of Abijah; his wife Elizabeth was also a descendant of

Aaron. Both were upright in the sight of God’ observing

all the Lord’s commandments and regulations blamelessly.

But they had no children, because Elizabeth was barren; and

they were both well along in years.

Once when Zechariah’s division was on duty and he was serving

as priest before God, he was chosen by lot, according to the custom

of the priesthood, to go into the temple of the Lord and burn incense.

And when the time for the burning of … Continue Reading

SOUND MIND

God has not given us a spirit of fear,

but of power, love and sound mind.

(II. Timothy 1.7).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

THE GREAT REST

THE GREAT REST

“And it shall be in that day that the Root of Jesse

shall stand as a signal for the peoples,

of Him shall the nations inquire and seek knowledge,

and His dwelling shall be glory

(His rest glorious)!”

(Isaiah 11.10).

“Therefore, while the promise of entering His rest still holds

and is offered today, let us fear to distrust it

lest any of you should come short of reaching it.

For indeed we have had the glad tidings (The Best News Ever)

proclaimed to us just as truly as they (the Israelites of old

did when the good news of deliverance from bondage came

to them), but the message they … Continue Reading

Love Divine, All Loves Excelling

LOVE DIVINE, ALL LOVES EXCELLING

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?

Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution,

or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

As it is written: ” For Your sake we are killed

all day long; we are accounted as sheep for

the slaughter.”

Yet in all these things we are more than

conquerors through Him who loved us.

For I am persuaded that neither death

nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor

powers, nor things present nor things to come,

Nor height nor depth, nor any other created

thing, shall be able to separate us from the love

of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

PERFECT LOVE

PERFECT LOVE

Whoever confesses that Jesus is
the Son of God, God abides in him,
and he in God.
And we have known and believed
the love that God has for us.
God is love,and he who abides
in love abides in God, and God
in him.
Love has been perfected among
us in this: that we may have
boldness in the day of judgement;
because as He is, so are we in
this world.There is no fear in love; but perfect
love casts out fear, because fear involves

torment. But he who fears
has not been made perfect in love.
We love Him because He first loved us.
(I. John4:15-19).
