Sunday January 6, 2019 thought for the day










THOUGHTS FOR TODAY
1-Wealth, honor, power or prestige add nothing to our value in God’s eyes, but the faithful works we do for him have eternal value.
2-Prayer is human communication with God.
3-When praying, don’t let the absence of an immediate answer cause you to doubt or resent God.
4-Don’t take God for granite and treat him as a vending machine.
5-From our perspective, God sometimes seems slow to intervene on our behalf, but what might appear slow to us is good timing from God’s perspective.

STRANGE THOUGHT
Letting the cat out of the bag is a whole lot easier than putting it back in.

I’VE LEARNED
While romance keeps a marriage interesting, it is commitment that keeps romance from dwindling away.

DID YOU KNOW
Princess Diana was a very enthusiastic tap dancer.

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-Are we to cut off our hands or feet if they cause us to sin?
2-Do our eyes, hands and feet cause us to sin or is it our heart (desires).
3-Were all tax collectors in Jesus day evil people?
4-Does it always work out that when two of us agree on things and we ask God for it, he does it?
5-Are you to forgive someone who continually and willfully does wrong to you?

BIBLE TRIVIA
What two herbs does Jesus say the Pharisees would tithe?
Answer for today        mint and rue          Luke 11:42

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY
Matthew 4:8-10      For the third test, the Devil took him to the peak of a huge mountain. He gestured expansively, pointing out all the earth’s kingdoms, how glorious they all were. Then he said, “They’re yours—lock, stock, and barrel. Just go down on your knees and worship me, and they’re yours.”
10 Jesus’ refusal was curt: “Beat it, Satan!” He backed his rebuke with a third quotation from Deuteronomy: “Worship the Lord your God, and only him. Serve him with absolute single-heartedness.”

PRAYER FOR TODAY


Father, thank you for Jesus’s example of no compromise with evil.

I WISH YOU LOVE IN YOUR HEART-PEACE IN YOUR SOUL-  JOY IN YOUR LIFE -ALWAYS-
