Daily Bible Verse and Hymn for Monday 14 March 2011

"Greetings Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ"

Today's Bible Verse: Hebrews 4:15,16  "For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weakness, but was in all points tempted as we are yet without sin.  Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help us in time of need."

Our High Priest, Jesus Christ sympathizes with our weakness.  The word "sympathize" means "to suffer with" and would express the feelings of one who entered into suffering.  Jesus experienced every degree of temptation as we do, yet He was without sin.  We as humans who give into temptation so easily, cannot even begin to know how strong temptation can be.  Jesus who never gave in, KNOWS.

We as Christians should boldly and courageously approach God in prayer, because His is a throne of grace, and our High Priest Jesus Christ sits at His right hand interceding for us.

Mercy in verse 16 is compassion for a sufferer so great that it moves one to help.  In this verse mercy implies failure: we come to God because our sins have led us away from God and His rest.  The greatness and wonder of this passage is that, Jesus understands our every WEAKNESS, and we now can come before God and find Him not accusing us, but finding MERCY and GRACE.  "Praise God"

Today's Hymn: "Your Grace is Enough"

Great is your faithfulness O God, You wrestle with the sinners restless heart
You led us by still waters into mercy, And nothing can keep us apart
So remember Your people, Remember Your Children, Remember Your promise O God
Your grace is enough, Your grace is enough, Your grace is enough for me
Great is Your love and justice God of Jacob, You use the weak to lead the strong
You lead us in the song of Your salvation, and all Your people sing along, Yeah Your grace is good enough for me
Heaven reaches out to us, Your grace is enough for me, I'm covered in Your love
Your grace is enough for me, for me, it's enough for me

"Sometimes we need to beyond the call of duty in order to further the Kingdom of God"

Have a God filled and Spirit Led Day.  Go in Peace and Serve the Lord with Gladness.  Love God More Today and always remember that when you have a spiritual defeat that yells, "I Can't", God whisper to you, "BUT I CAN".

Yours in Christ,
Cindi

Daily Bible Verse and Hymn for Sunday 13 March 2011

"Greetings in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"

Today's Bible Verse: 1 Corinthians 15:53-57: "For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.  So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: "Death is swallowed up in victory."  O death, where is your sting?  O Hades where is your victory?"  The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is law.  But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through or Lord Jesus Christ."

We as Christians the moment we accept the free gift of Jesus Christ into our life's will receive a body that is not subject to death.   Satan's apparent victory in the Garden of Eden, and at the Cross of Calvary, were defeated by the death of Jesus and His resurrection. 

The grave no longer has power over Christians, because Jesus, has already conquered both.  We are now free to participate in His victory.  "Praise God"

Today's Hymn: "God You Reign" (What a message in this song)

You paint the night, You count the stars and You call them by name
The skies proclaim, God You reign
Your glory shines, You teach the sun when to bring a new day, Creation sings
God You reign, God You reign, God You reign
Forever and ever You reign
You part the seas, You move the mountains with the words that You say
My song remains, You reign
You hold my life, You know my heart, and You call me by name
I live to say, God You reign, Hallelujah, Allelu

Heavenly Father, You are the creator of all that is.  Your creation does sing of your marvelous works.  You indeed Lord God, have made the stars and know them all by name.  May our hearts always proclaim, "God You Reign."

"No matter what our circumstances, we should praise God.

Today's weekend Blog Bible Verse at www.cindidavis.blogspot.com is from Galatians 4:6,7.

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day.  Go in Peace and Serve the Lord with Gladness.  Love God More Today and always remember that when you have a spiritual defeat that yells, I  Can't", God whispers to you, "BUT I CAN".

Yours in Christ,

Daily Bible Verse and Hymn for Saturday 12 March 2011

"Greetings Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"

I would like to start out with a praise.  My daughter Amanda, on Friday 11 March, in the late afternoon brought forth her first son, "Roman Isaac" into the world.  Mom and baby are doing well.  It is her first child and my 3rd grandson to go along with one granddaughter.  Please keep them both in your prayers.

Today's Bible Verse:  Lamentations: 3:22-24: "Through the Lord's mercies we are not consumed, because His compassion fail not.  They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.  The Lord is my portion, says my soul, Therefore I hope in Him".

Every day presents us with a new opportunity, to discover and experience more of God's love for us.  God can be depended on, even in the midst of sorrow, pain and suffering. Great, is our Almighty God's faithfulness.  The compassionate, loving and caring character of God, dominates the wreckage our life's.  God will always remain full of grace, and truth in every situation.

The Lord is our hope and our inheritance.  Hope in the Lord is not a wishful thought, but a confident expectation in the Lord"Wow"  What a Loving, Caring and all Powerful God that we serve.

Today's Hymn: "Count Your Blessings"

When upon Life's billows you are tempest tossed,
When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost
Count your many blessings, name them one by one
And it will surprise You what the Lord has done
Count your blessings, name them one by one
Count your blessings, see what God hath done
Count your blessings, name them one by one
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done

Heavenly Father, we are so grateful for the many blessings that you have bestowed upon us.  Help us Lord, not to be discouraged, when we feel the pressure of the world piling upon us, but help us to realize that we have You to turn to, and in you we can do anything with the power that You provide for us, in our every day life's.
                                                                                              Amen

Daily Bible Scripture and Hymn for Friday 11 March 2011

"Greetings everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"

Today's Bible Verse: Hebrews 13:5,6  "Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have.  For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."  So we can boldly say: "The Lord is my helper; I will not fear: What can man do to me."

Wow!!!!  The statement, "I will never never leave you nor forsake you", is one of the most profound statements in the New Testament.  What a message that is to our hearts and our life's. 

The bottom line of these two verses is that it isn't how much money or material possessions we may have.  The message that is presented in these verses, is that God is committed to us, and that He will never leave, nor forsake us.  That my friends, is REAL SECURITY.

Today's Hymn: "Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus"

O soul, are you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness we see?
There's a light for a look at the Savior,
And life more abundant and free!
Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.

Heavenly Father, What a marvelous promise that You made to us, that You would never leave nor forsake us.  We are so thankful that unlike us, you are faithful in keeping the promises that You make.
                                                                                                  Amen

Bible Scripture and Hymn for Thursday 10 March 2011

"Greetings Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"

Today's Bible Verse: Proverbs 3:6 "In all ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your path."

God is calling you to a life of constant communion with Him. God's basic training includes learning to live above your circumstances, even while interacting on that cluttered plane of life. 

You yearn for a simplified lifestyle, so that your communication with me can be  uninterrupted, but God challenges you to relinquish the fantasy of an uncluttered world.

Accept each day just as soon as it comes, and find God in the midst of it all.  Talk with God about every aspect of your life, including your feelings. 

Remember that your ultimate goal is not to control or fix everything around you; it is to keep communing with Me Your God.  A successful day is one in which you have stayed in touch with Me.  The Holy Spirit will guide you moment by moment, and I will keep you close to me.

Hymn: Friend of God

Who am I that You are mindful of me, that You hear me when I call
Is it true that You are thinking of me, how You love me, It's amazing
I am a friend of God, I am a friend of God, I am a friend of God
He calls me friend
God Almighty, Lord of Glory, You have called me friend

"Grace draws you into conversation with God"
