God's Corner

Jesus Himself told us how to pray. Many people know the Lord’s Prayer by heart, but many times we don’t use it as a pattern for our overall prayer life. During this Bible plan, as we seek God in prayer every day, consider ways to include the ideas in this “how to pray” prayer. Today’s we will start a new devotional and it will focus on prayer and its power to move one’s life in the direction that The Lord intends, we all have dreams and aspirations, we know that GOD has His plans as well, but did you know that in His magnificence there is still room for our tiny little dreams, as long as they don’t go against His plan of divinity there is no such thing The Lord almighty won’t do you. Through prayer we commune with Him and our relationship is stronger for it, GOD never does anything with our purpose, all things are made and move for His divine plans to come to fruition we all know it because at some point He has proven Himself to you, let’s step it a bit by devoting ou...

Paul said that he was overpowered, subdued, and held as in a vise by “the love of Christ.” Very few of us really know what it means to be held in the grip of the love of God. We tend so often to be controlled simply by our own experience. The one thing that gripped and held Paul, to the exclusion of everything else, was the love of God. “The love of Christ compels us . . . .” When you hear that coming from the life of a man or woman it is unmistakable. You will know that the Spirit of God is completely unhindered in that person’s life. When we are born again by the Spirit of God, our testimony is based solely on what God has done for us, and rightly so. But that will change and be removed forever once you “receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you . . .” (Acts 1:8). Only then will you begin to realize what Jesus meant when He went on to say, “. . . you shall be witnesses to Me . . . .” Not witnesses to what Jesus can do—that is basic and understood—but “wit...

A warning which needs to be repeated is that “the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches,” and the lust for other things, will choke out the life of God in us (Matthew 13:22). We are never free from the recurring waves of this invasion. If the frontline of attack is not about clothes and food, it may be about money or the lack of money; or friends or lack of friends; or the line may be drawn over difficult circumstances. It is one steady invasion, and these things will come in like a flood, unless we allow the Spirit of God to raise up the banner against it. “I say to you, do not worry about your life . . . .” Our Lord says to be careful only about one thing—our relationship to Him. But our common sense shouts loudly and says, “That is absurd, I must consider how I am going to live, and I must consider what I am going to eat and drink.” Jesus says you must not. Beware of allowing yourself to think that He says this while not understanding your circumstances. J...

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. Perfect Love

Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. John 14:23
