Random Acts of Kindness, Angels Unaware

~~~Hebrews 13:2 (AMPC)~~~

“Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.”

Blessings From the Hand of God

“There is nothing better for a man than that he should eat and drink and make himself enjoy good in his labor. Even this, I have seen, is from the hand of God. For who can eat or who can have enjoyment any more than I can—apart from him? For to the person who pleases Him God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy; but to the sinner He gives the work of gathering and heaping up, that he may give to one who pleases God. This also is vanity and a striving after the wind and a feeding on it.”

~~~Ecclesiastes 2:24-26 (AMPC)~~~

“There is nothing better for a person than that he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his toil. This also, I saw, is from the hand of God, for apart from him who can eat or who can have enjoyment? For to the one who pleases him God has given wisdom and knowledge and joy, but to the sinner he has given the business of gathering and collecting, only to give to one who pleases God. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.”

Thank God for Still Blessing the USA!

Lee Greenwood “I believe that America needs faith. Our immigrants who came here from England and the rest of the world didn’t come here to escape religion. They came here to escape persecution. You just need to believe in something that is bigger than you, and for me it’s Jesus Christ and God”.

God Bless the USA” featuring Greenwood, Home Free and The Singing Sergeants.

 “Oh, how kind our Lord was, for he showed me how to trust him and become full of the love of Christ Jesus.”

~~~1 Timothy 1:14 (TLB)~~~

“You can pass through his open gates with the password of praise.
    Come right into his presence with thanksgiving.
    Come bring your thank offering to him
    and affectionately bless his beautiful name!”

The One & Only Faithful God

“Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations, and repays to their face those who hate him, by destroying them. He will not be slack with one who hates him. He will repay him to his face.”

~~~Deuteronomy 7:9-10 (ESV)~~~

“God wasn’t attracted to you and didn’t choose you because you were big and important—the fact is, there was almost nothing to you. He did it out of sheer love, keeping the promise he made to your ancestors. God stepped in and mightily bought you back out of that world of slavery, freed you from the iron grip of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Know this: God, your God, is God indeed, a God you can depend upon. He keeps his covenant of loyal love with those who love him and observe his commandments for a thousand generations. But he also pays back those who hate him, pays them the wages of death; he isn’t slow to pay them off—those who hate him, he pays right on time.”

~~~Deuteronomy 7:9-10 (MSG)~~~

“Know therefore that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations; And repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face.”

~~~Deuteronomy 7:9-10 (KJV)~~~

The Wedge, the Slow & Steady Progression of Separation

“Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.”

~~~1 Peter 5:8 (NIV)~~~

The Miraculous Life “And He always points me to the wedge when you’re cutting firewood. And I don’t know if anybody’s chopped firewood before, but you have this big, strong log. And you take this wedge and you pound this wedge into this big log. And it’s amazing how this very tiny point of a tip is the thing that makes the inroad. It gets in there just a little bit. And as it further goes down it creates greater and greater separation, so much so that this big log splits in two. And I believe that’s the way many mundane, everyday circumstances are happening that priorities begin to get out of wack. We begin to not care or nurture for this most precious relationship called marriage the way that we should”.

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”

~~~John 10:10 (NIV)~~~

The Spirit of Truth

“Everything I do, every decision I make is according to St. John 16:13” Jesse Duplantis.

“When the Holy Spirit, who is truth, comes, he shall guide you into all truth, for he will not be presenting his own ideas, but will be passing on to you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future.”

~~~John 16:13 (TLB)~~~

 “But when He, the Spirit of Truth (the Truth-giving Spirit) comes, He will guide you into all the Truth (the whole, full Truth). For He will not speak His own message [on His own authority]; but He will tell whatever He hears [from the Father; He will give the message that has been given to Him], and He will announce and declare to you the things that are to come [that will happen in the future].”

Proclaiming Heaven on Earth

Todd White of Lifestyle Christianity “Eternal life isn’t just when you get to heaven. Eternal life starts when you have a relationship with the Father here on earth. We live to destroy hell here on earth because the Heavens are open to us, and then one day, we will enter into the glory of the Lord. But we can live and bring God’s glory everywhere we go. You are a divine encounter. It’s time to make the devil wish that he never touched the bride of Christ. Go and terrorize the devil’s camp”.

 “And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.”

~~~Mark 16:15 (ESV)~~~
