(Matthew 11:1-5)…..Now it came to pass, when Jesus finished commanding His twelve disciples, that He departed from there to teach and to preach in their cities. ² And when John had heard in prison about the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples ³ and said to Him, “Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?” ⁴ Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and tell John the things which you hear and see: ⁵ The blind see and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed …

(Psalm 145:8-9)…..The Lord is gracious and full of compassion, Slow to anger and great in mercy. The Lord is good to all, And His tender mercies are over all His works.

The greatest deception is making people think God is bad. But God is not guilty of anything bad! The devil wants us to believe God is bad, that He is uncaring, that He does bad things to us, and that He is holding out on us, keeping us from enjoying good. But it isn’t true. God loves you more than …

(Hebrews 11:6)…..But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

You may be working yourself to a frazzle trying to be perfect so you can please God and get to heaven. You may have tried so hard and become so frustrated that you are about ready to give up. Well, maybe you should quit trying to be perfect on your own, because none of us will ever be …

(John 11:25)…..Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.

What did Jesus mean by saying He is the resurrection? Resurrection is not just an event, but a person: the Lord Jesus Christ. He is our resurrection. Those who are united with Jesus Christ through faith in Him experience His resurrection life, not just when in heaven, but now. Remember what John said in his epistle, “He who has the Son has life; he who does not …

Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” (Genesis 1:26)

Here we have the first of man – his origin and his destiny entirely Divine. God undertook the stupendous work of making a creature who is not God, to be a perfect likeness of Him in His Divine glory. Man was …

(1 Corinthians 4:8-13)…..You are already full! You are already rich! You have reigned as kings without us—and indeed I could wish you did reign, that we also might reign with you! ⁹ For I think that God has displayed us, the apostles, last, as men condemned to death; for we have been made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men. ¹⁰ We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are strong! You are distinguished, but we aredishonored! ¹¹ …

Christ is seen in every part of the tabernacle; and everywhere it is the riches of His grace that we see. Here “Christ is all and in all.” The whole fabric is Christ. Each separate part is Christ. The altar is Christ the sacrifice. The laver is Christ filled with the Spirit for us. The curtains speak of Him. The entrances all speak of Him. Candlestick, and table, and golden altar speak of Him. The Ark of the Covenant, the mercy-seat, the glory, all embody and reveal Him. Everything here says,

(John 13:17)…..If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

1. Be Thankful. It all starts with attitude. If you don’t stay on the positive side, failure is inevitable. You cannot have a happy marriage without happy people. Have you noticed that unthankful people are never happy?
2. Express Your Appreciation. Let your spouse know by word and deed that you appreciate them. Be specific and lavish in your praise and thanks. Nothing encourages people like encouragement from another. People love people who love them. If you want

(Romans 8:31)….. What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?We all face opposition. No one likes it. But opposition is a fact of life on earth. But here’s a more important fact: with God for us, opposition doesn’t really matter. With God on our side, what does it matter who opposes us? The worst anyone can do is kill us, which would be doing us a favor. (Being a martyr for Christ and going to be with Him in Heaven …

What is going on in some churches today in the USA. Christians are getting hung up on racial issues more and more, yet all these issues should have ended at the cross for anyone who calls themself a Christian. God is calling to Himself a people, “not from among the Jews only, but also from among the Gentiles.” As Paul put it in (Ephesians 2:13)…..“But now in Christ Jesus you [the Gentiles] who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.” He adds in (Ephesians 2:19)…..“So …
