1 Peter 1:21

” who through Him believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.” #Bible

Through Jesus the Christ we have believed in God, so that our faith, and our hope, are in God. This next verse brings it home;

1 Peter 1:22 Having purified your souls by your obedience to the truth for a sincere brotherly love, love one another earnestly from a pure…

Matthew 21:21

” So Jesus answered and said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ it will be done.” #Bible

Walking with God means we live according to His Will. In God’s Will we can do some cool things, but they come through prayer, not according to…

Hebrews 11:1

” Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” #Bible

God has given us faith as a way to understand the things we hope for in the future here, as well as in eternity.

Faith is also the proof or evidence of what we can’t see yet. Faith is a gift from God second only to His wonderful Love.

2 Timothy 4:7

” I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” #Bible

It’s all about getting here, we’ve started the journey, now we must continue to completion.

Any Christian knows the journey is about the fight. The good fight is sharing Jesus the Christ with those who don’t know Him, or even think they don’t want to know Jesus.

Keeping the faith is to understand that God is…

1 Chronicles 16:11

” Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face evermore!” #Bible

This is the meaning of the life we live. The only way we can live a fulfilled life. We must search out God at every turn.

If without God you think you have a fulfilled meaningful life, then you have settled for an inferior life. How do you know?

1 Samuel 2:2

” “No one is holy like the Lord, For there is none besides You, Nor is there any rock like our God.” #Bible

God is not of this world. He is the Creator of this world. God is also the One, who at the end of this age, will destroy everything to make way for the new heavens and earth.

Psalms 22:19

” But You, O Lord, do not be far from Me; O My Strength, hasten to help Me!” #Bible

What we think or feel doesn’t have a bearing on what God is doing, but He does love our dependence on Him.

Rightly so, our existence is soley by His Love and Grace at creation, and salvation, at the end of the age.

Jonah 2:2

” And he said: “I cried out to the Lord because of my affliction, And He answered me. “Out of the belly of Sheol I cried, And You heard my voice.” (Jonah 2:2 NKJV)

#Bible

There is no place you can be, no sin you can be caught up in, no mistake you can make, that God can’t raise you up and save you.

John 3:16

” For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” #Bible

To believe in the unique only begotten Son of God, Jesus, is to have eternal life. To not believe in Jesus is to be condemned to an eternity separated from God.

That place of separation is hell, or more correctly the lake of fire. If you don’t want to…

1 Corinthians 13:4

” Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;” #Bible

We understand love doesn’t envy, or parade itself, nor can it puff up. When it comes to suffering though, love endures and remains kind in spite of the wrongs.

Love is amazingly profound when we see God’s patience with us. How He silently remains kind to us in view of how we manage to let…

Isaiah 54:10

” For the mountains shall depart And the hills be removed, But My kindness shall not depart from you, Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed,” Says the Lord, who has mercy on you.” #Bible

God knows our frailty, He knows our propensity for sin, but He wants us to know His commitment to us is forever. His Livingkindness will not end. His compassion and mercy will always bring us peace. God is…

1 John 4:7

” Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.” #Bible

So if we don’t love one another then we don’t know love, nor God. What do we think love is? Better yet, do we know God?

So if we love with unconditional intentions not requiring anything in return, not expecting reciprocation, then we are loving with a God like love. We are born…

1 John 4:7

” Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.” #Bible

So if we don’t love one another then we don’t know love, nor God. What do we think love is? Better yet, do we know God?

So if we love with unconditional intentions not requiring anything in return, not expecting reciprocation, then we are loving with a God like love. We are born…

John 13:34

” A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.” #Bible

Love is the most powerful force on the planet. Love answers all the desires of the pure heart, it won’t do anything that hurts or opperates from vengeance.

Love does no wrong to a neighbor, therefore it is the fullfilment of the law of God, (Romans 13:10).

God has set the…

James 1:5

” If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.” #Bible

There is one wisdom which is derived from education and more importantly experience. Although the other wisdom is not of this world, it is the Wisdom of God. This Wisdom from God is miraculous, it is quiet, and hard to discover, and often misunderstood. But the…

Titus 1:15-16

” To the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience are defiled. They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work.” #Bible

To be pure is to be undefiled, or uncorrupted by the evils, and sins of this world. I believe it’s impossible without the…
