FaithWriters.com-Christian Christian Living - Thank God for The Joy of Jesus

FaithWriters.com-Christian Christian Living - Thank God for The Joy of Jesus: Have you ever wondered about the soul of the Godless? How can they thank God for all that He has done? For instance, creation, the gift of life, and the rising of the Sun each day. We also have have all that Jesus has done through grace.

There were 10 men with an incurable decease. They saw Jesus and asked if He would have mercy on him. At once they were all healed. What was so amazing is that only one of the ten returned to say thank you.

The Joy of The Lord is our salvation. We thank God and praise God for spiritual blessings in Christ Jesus. The Goodness of God is beyond human comprehension. The Joy of Jesus is praying for those to foolish to understand all that Jesus did on the cross. We thank God for The Joy of Jesus.

Daily Word The Joy of Jesus Today

Home | Daily Word: "PROSPERITY
I am prospered as I circulate God's good.
Water in a pool or pond becomes stagnant when there is lack of fresh water circulating through it. Similarly, when I fail to circulate the good in my life, good can appear to be in short supply. The more I give, the more I receive. The greater my appreciation of life's abundance, the more I am stimulated to share.

As I give love to others, love returns to me. It may return from different people, yet without fail, it will return to bless me. When I spend money, I am doing more than just making a purchase or paying a bill, I am circulating God's good. Prosperity flows to me continuously as I actively and consciously participate in the infinite cycle of blessing and benefit.

Do not be afraid, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.--Luke 12:32"

Read: Proverbs 2:1-9

Do not be wise in your own eyes. —Proverbs 3:7

Bible in a year:
Psalms 132-134; 1 Corinthians 11:17-34

Just before our church service began, I overheard a young man behind me talking with his mother. They were reading an announcement in the bulletin about a challenge to read one chapter of Proverbs each day for the months of July and August. He asked his mom, “What will we do with chapter 31 in August since there are only 30 days?” She said she thought there were 31 days in August. He responded, “No, there are only 30.”

When it was time in the service to greet each other, I turned back toward him and said hello. Then I added, “August does have 31 days.” He insisted, “No, it doesn’t. There can’t be 2 months in a row with 31 days.” The singing started, so I just smiled.

This brief encounter made me think about our need to develop a teachable spirit, seeking wisdom beyond our own. In Proverbs 3, the attitude the father recommends to the son is one of humility: “Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord” (v.7). In chapter 2, he says, “Incline your ear to wisdom . . . ; search for her as for hidden treasures” (vv.2,4).

Knowing whether August has 30 or 31 days doesn’t matter much, but having a teachable spirit does. It will help us gain wisdom from God and others. Reading a chapter from Proverbs each day next month may give us a start.

Lord, teach us from Your holy Word
The truth that we must know,
And help us share the joyous news
Of blessings You bestow. —D. De Haan

True wisdom begins and ends with God.

FaithWriters.com-Christian Faith - The Power of God in The Joy of Jesus

FaithWriters.com-Christian Faith - The Power of God in The Joy of Jesus:Have you ever felt so weak that it is difficult to move on with simple tasks that require strength? This is true for many of our seniors today as well as the disable. Jesus was well aware that people needed such healing.

There are many stories of how Jesus healed a man who could not walk; another person who could not see, and a person who could not hear. Do we need such powers today?

Faith is the key to all the healing that Jesus performed. The joy of the lord is our salvation. We need to place all of our confidence in the power of God in Christ Jesus. God gave us Jesus so that we too may be healed, and share this power with the son as brothers and sisters in Christ.

The times in which we live are closer to the end as the day before, we must increase our faith in The Joy of Jesus. The meek shall inherit the earth. Jesus loves us so much that He gave His life in the cross. The real joy and power of God is when Jesus returns. Will you share in His, Power and Joy?

Home | Daily Word: "HARMONY
Love binds us together, creating perfect harmony.
I may feel very different from others at times, even different from members of my own family. Rather than see that as a problem, I celebrate our differences.

Paintings are more interesting with complementary colors. Harmony in music comes from creating agreement between divergent notes. Couples could not dance without taking opposing steps.

I celebrate and love myself for the unique expression of God that I am. I celebrate and love others for the unique expressions of God that they are. We all are worthy; we all are sacred. Like the colors of the rainbow, we are each different, yet held together in harmony. Love is the great harmonizing power that binds us together. I'm happy to be me, sharing myself in harmony with all.

Live in harmony with one another.--Romans 12:16"

John 8:21-59 "Then said Jesus again unto them,..." KJV - Online Bible Study

John 8:21-59 "Then said Jesus again unto them,..." KJV - Online Bible Study: Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way , and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go , ye cannot come . ²² Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith , Whither I go , ye cannot come . ²³ And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. ²⁴ I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. ²⁵ Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning. ²⁶ I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him. ²⁷ They understood not that he spake to them of the Father. ²⁸ Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. ²⁹ And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him. ³⁰ As he spake these words, many believed on him. ³¹ Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; ³² And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free . ³³ They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou , Ye shall be made free? ³⁴ Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you , Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. ³⁵ And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever. ³⁶ If the Son therefore shall make you free , ye shall be free indeed. ³⁷ I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you. ³⁸ I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father. ³⁹ They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham. ⁴⁰ But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham. ⁴¹ Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God. ⁴² Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. ⁴³ Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. ⁴⁴ Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do . He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. ⁴⁵ And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. ⁴⁶ Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? ⁴⁷ He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God. ⁴⁸ Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil? ⁴⁹ Jesus answered , I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me. ⁵⁰ And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth . ⁵¹ Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death. ⁵² Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead , and the prophets; and thou sayest , If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death. ⁵³ Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead ? and the prophets are dead : whom makest thou thyself? ⁵⁴ Jesus answered , If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say , that he is your God: ⁵⁵ Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say , I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying. ⁵⁶ Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad . ⁵⁷ Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? ⁵⁸ Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was , I am . ⁵⁹ Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself , and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by .

¹⁷ And Solomon numbered all the strangers that were in the land of Israel, after the numbering wherewith David his father had numbered them; and they were found an hundred and fifty thousand and three thousand and six hundred. ¹⁸ And he set threescore and ten thousand of them to be bearers of burdens, and fourscore thousand to be hewers in the mountain, and three thousand and six hundred overseers to set the people a work .
