Saturday February 15, 2014 thought for the day

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY

1-The Jews not only have a history with God, they also have a future-

2-Defining moments in our life determine who we are-

3-God did not say "be kind" or "be loving" because I am so but "be holy" because I am holy-

4-God's holiness finds expression in truth and grace-

5-If we say that God is simply love, it is not true-

 

STRANGE THOUGHT-a secret is something you tell to one person at a time-

 

I'VE LEARNED-Charity gives itself rich, covetousness hoards itself poor-

 

DID YOU KNOW-There are close to 100 million sheep in Iceland-

 

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-Is it possible or probable that the genealogical listings in the Old Testament may not list every succeeding generation and therefore may omit hundred of years of mankind's history?

2-How many children did Adam and Eve have in their lifetime.  How many boys and girls?

3-How could the early Genesis people have possibly lived as long as Genesis states?

4-Why did Enoch live such a short life as compared to his older family members?

5-Who were the "sons of God" and "daughters of men" that married each other in Genesis 6?

 

BIBLE TRIVIA-According to Revelation, where is the place reserved for those who names are not in the book of life?

Answer for today   a lake of fire and brimstone   Revelation 20

 

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY    Ephesians 4:29-32

²⁹ When you talk, do not say harmful things, but say what people need—words that will help others become stronger. Then what you say will do good to those who listen to you. ³⁰ And do not make the Holy Spirit sad. The Spirit is God’s proof that you belong to him. God gave you the Spirit to show that God will make you free when the final day comes. ³¹ Do not be bitter or angry or mad. Never shout angrily or say things to hurt others. Never do anything evil. ³² Be kind and loving to each other, and forgive each other just as God forgave you in Christ.

 

PRAYER FOR TODAY

 

Father, we recognize that we are overcomers because we are children of God.  The battles we conquer and the ultimate victory we attain in our lifetime is wholly because of the power of Christ at work in us. We are more than conquerors through Jesus who loves us and gave His life for our sins.  Thank you for the inexhaustible supply of Your grace, power, and provision for our salvation and our steadfast walk with You in the ensuing battles of daily life.


 TODAY WILL NEVER COME AGAIN.  BE A BLESSING.  BE A FRIEND.  ENCOURAGE SOMEONE.  TAKE TIME TO CARE.  LET YOUR WORDS AND ACTIONS HEAL AND NOT WOUND!
