Loving Yourselves

Scripture:“You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made” (Psalm 139:13, 14). Here is the “surprise” from yesterday’s lesson: The reference point for loving others is to love—get ready—yourself! “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” But it’s not easy. Some confuse loving themselves with a chocolate binge or a designer watch they can’t afford, just to feel good! But rewards from self-indulgence can be fleeting. Some have difficulty loving themselves because of intense feelings of inferiority: “I’ll never be like her!” “I can never measure up!” They compare themselves with others, a practice called “unwise” by the Apostle Paul (see 2 Corinthians 10:12). Still others disparage themselves because of serious mistakes they have made, or sins that have held them captive. They’ve yet to discover God’s remedy, that He graciously releases us from the burdens of the past when we ask for and receive His forgiven

Jesus Love and Compassion Were Remarkable

He came at a turbulent time, where nations had been at war with each other for many years. Yet Jesus taught people not just to love their friends, but to love even their enemies. He said, "I tell you who hear Me: love your enemies; do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. Do to others as you would have them do to you…Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful." (Luke 6:27-36). Christ not only taught love, He also modeled love Himself. Jesus forgave people their sins when they came to Him. "One day as He was teaching, Pharisees and teachers of the law, who had come from every village of Galilee and from Judea and Jerusalem, were sitting there. And the power of the Lord was present for Him to hea

What Does Forgiveness Feel Like?

Scripture: “Because you belong to Him [Christ Jesus], the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death.” Romans 8:2 Forgiveness is freeing. Through Jesus Christ, you have freedom from the power of sin and death in your life! This feeling of freedom can also be felt when you forgive others. God’s Forgiveness Freedom from sin is freedom from its guilt; this freedom is brought to us by God’s forgiveness through Jesus Christ. God “...is so rich in kindness and grace that He purchased our freedom with the blood of His Son and forgave our sins” (Ephesians 1:7). You can be confident God’s grace is working in your life: “if we confess our sins to Him, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness” (1 John 1:9). When you are forgiven, you might experience joy and the feeling a great “burden” (Matthew 11:28) has been lifted. Forgiveness of Others The Apostle Paul reminded Christians, “...the Lord forgave you, s

The Number If The Beast

You are here: Home / 666 / The Number of the Beast The Number of the Beast The Number of the BeastIn the centuries that followed the writing of Revelation, countless writers and preachers have tried to interpret John’s vision, speculating what the Number of the Beast could mean, but without success. The prophetic descriptions of the Mark and the peculiar number 666 became among the most well-known of all the prophecies in the Bible. There even developed a certain obsession related to this prediction. No Christians wanted to be associated with anything that even remotely reminded them of 666—just in case God would disapprove. In extreme cases, people have been known to send back credit cards or license plates just because they contained that number. Some companies have even received hate mail merely because they made the mistake of incorporating this number sequence into their ads or addresses. It’s amazing how this one simple, three-digit number can almost cause paranoia in Chris

Tell People About Jesus

Scripture: “And Jesus came and said to them, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in[b] the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.’” - Matthew 28:18-20 Who is one person you could share Jesus with today? One of Jesus’ greatest commands is to tell others about Him. It can be scary to share about Jesus with others, whether it’s with a stranger or a close friend. But, don’t let fear keep you from telling someone about Jesus today.

Antichrist Revealed

The Antichrist is Revealed The Restrainer Removed The day that the Antichrist is revealed will be the most fearful and confusing day imaginable. Even to Christians who know what is happening and look forward to the coming of Christ, it will still be a shock to experience the Antichrist’s rise. All stability will be suddenly taken out of our lives and apparent chaos left in its place. By contrast, for the vast majority of people his sudden rise will seem like a dream come true. Finally reaching the vision of a one-world government and the hope of peace on earth will effectively mask the true character of the Empire-Beast and its leader. To the believer, however, the coming of the Antichrist will make the prophecies of the last days a stark reality and jolt us out of our comfort zone as nothing else could. Right now we can somewhat sit back and watch the events of the end unfold without actually being affected by them. We can be fascinated by reading books on end-times prophecy a

The Forgiving Father

Jesus’ famous story has been traditionally called “The Prodigal Son”, but it would be better named “The Forgiving Father.” Written by Joy on 19/09/2015 Read More: Weekly Devotional Scripture: “...But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.” Luke 15:20 In Luke 15:11-32, Jesus tells a story about a loving, forgiving father who is an image of our Heavenly Father. God sees us when we stray away from Him. He even knows our greatest failures, yet He loves us and waits for us to come home to Him. The Father is More Fair than We Think Both sons in the story believed a lie about their father. The younger son believed the father was holding him back and keeping him from a fun and exciting life. (Luke 15:12-13). Do you reject God because you think you’ll have to give up fun? The older son believed his father was a judge. (Luke 15:29) He thought he had to earn his father’s love

MY MEAT IS TO DO THE WILL OF MY FATHER GOD & FINISH HIS WORK

John 4:34-38 34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. 35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. 36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. 37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. 38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours. You're born of the Word of God, and your life can only be built and sustained by the Word

Pray In Silents

The Devil cannot read your mind. He gets clues from watching your movements and listening to your conversations. Therefore don't verbalize your fears, and don't voice your doubts and worries, and don't parade your problems in public. Remember Hannah prayed silently. Whenever you're deeply fearful, doubtful and worried, do not give voice to your feelings. Rather sing praises loudly but pray silently. Some prayers are just between you and God - heart to heart. Get into your closet, close the door behind you, zip your lips and pray silently. When you're done praying, walk like a Victor not like a Victim. Your Father who hears in silence will reward you openly. “...for every word of doubt you utter is inviting Satan's temptations; it is strengthening in you the tendency to doubt, and it is grieving... the ministering angels. When Satan tempts you, utter not a word of doubt or darkness. If you choose to open the door to his suggestions, your mind will be filled with

Take Advantage of God's Grace

Grace is the beauty of God in your spirit, expressed in your life. It is the fullness of God in your spirit that brings favour, righteousness and all the glorious blessings of God in Christ. Everyday, take advantage of the grace of God in your life, and live to your full potentials in Christ. God bless you.

God is Able

2 Corinthians 9:8 And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self- sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation]. 2 Corinthians 10:4-6 4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6 And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
